Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in SwiftCloud Swift Calendar Online Appointment Scheduling online-appointment-scheduling-software allows Reflected XSS.This issue affects Swift Calendar Online Appointment Scheduling: from n/a through <= 1.3.3.

The Swift Framework plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via several of the plugin's shortcodes in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.31 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Unfortunately, we did not receive a response from the vendor to send over the vulnerability details.

The Swift Framework plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the sfeditdirectoryitem() function in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.31. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update arbitrary posts with arbitrary content. Unfortunately, we did not receive a response from the vendor to send over the vulnerability details.

The socialdriver-framework WordPress plugin before 2024.04.30 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as contributor to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfilteredhtml capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)

The socialdriver-framework WordPress plugin before 2024.04.30 does not sanitise and escape a parameter before outputting it back in the page, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting which could be used against high privilege users such as admin

An issue was discovered in SWIFT Alliance Web Platform 7.1.23. A log injection (and an arbitrary log filename) can be achieved via the PATHINFO to swp/login/EJBRemoteService/, related to com.swift.ejbgwt.j2ee.client.EjBlnvocationException error log information containing null@java:comp/env/ error messages.

[I've seen multiple news articles & blogs in the wake of the coordinated disclosure today, but no postings here yet, so lets start fixing that.]

Google, Cloudflare, AWS, and others released details today of a protocol-level issue in HTTP/2 being exploited in recent months for denial-of-service attacks:

This attack works via the multiplexed streams feature of HTTP/2, in which the client repeatedly makes a request for a new stream, and then immediately sends a RSTSTREAM frame to cancel them, resulting in the server doing lots of extra work to set up and tear down the streams, while not hitting any server-side limit on a maximum number of active streams per connection.
