WEDO Media Inc. began from an idea that the Lake Wedowee area deserved for its stories to be told. Since 2008, we have been telling those stories as Lake Wedowee Life magazine in print, online and through our social media channels. Lake Wedowee Life features stunning photography and intriguing stories which shine a light on the beauty that is Lake Wedowee. The magazine is published six times a year. WEDO Media Inc launched a new title in 2022 that has received an amazing response throughout Alabama. Alabama Small Towns and Downtowns was created as a vehicle to tell the stories of the some times overlooked areas of our great state. The continued success of Lake Wedowee Life proves that small towns across Alabama have a wealth of stories that need to be known. The pandemic created shift where people were wanting to go back to small towns and even in the digital age, they still love the feel of a print magazine. Alabama Small Towns & Downtowns is available at the eight Welcome Centers across Alabama as well as through our advertising network. In the inaugural issue, five towns were featured and there are plans to expand to two editions in 2023. The third title under the WEDO Media Inc is Southern Holiday Life. Launched in 2010 as a standalone annual sister publication to Lake Wedowee Life, SHL features recipes, crafts, decorating and events from Thanksgiving to New Years. It makes a wonderful coffee table magazine and readers even pack it up with their holiday decorations to enjoy year after year!

Description

ThingsBoard in versions prior to v4.2.1 allows an authenticated user to upload malicious SVG images via the "Image Gallery", leading to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. The exploit can be triggered when any user accesses the public API endpoint of the malicious SVG images, or if the malicious images are embedded in an `iframe` element, during a widget creation, deployed to any page of the platform (e.g., dashboards), and accessed during normal operations. The vulnerability resides in the `ImageController`, which fails to restrict the execution of JavaScript code when an image is loaded by the user's browser. This vulnerability can lead to the execution of malicious code in the context of other users' sessions, potentially compromising their accounts and allowing unauthorized actions.
