GHSA-2GJ2-VJ98-J2QQ
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-11-21 22:35 – Updated: 2022-11-21 22:35Impact
It's possible for a user with only Script rights to enable or disable a user: this operation should be only doable for users with admin rights.
Patches
This problem has been patched in XWiki 13.10.7, 14.4.2 and 14.5RC1.
Workarounds
There is no workaround other than upgrading the wiki, but note that this only impacts users with Script rights: administrator should take care which users have such right.

This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to update arbitrary options on the WordPress site. This can be leveraged to update the default role for registration to administrator and enable user registration for attackers to gain administrative user access to a vulnerable site.

GHSA-2GW9-C2R2-F5QF
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-21 17:24 – Updated: 2026-06-09 10:52Impact
Any authenticated user can immediately obtain full administrative control of the entire Neko instance (member management, room settings, broadcast control, session termination, etc.). This results in a complete compromise of the instance.
Patches
The vulnerability has been patched in the following releases:
Users should upgrade to v3.0.11 or later (for the 3.0 branch) or v3.1.2 or later.
Workarounds
If upgrading is not immediately possible, the following mitigations can reduce risk:
- Restrict access to trusted users only (avoid granting accounts to untrusted parties)
- Run the instance only when needed; avoid leaving it continuously exposed
- Disable or restrict access to the
/api/profileendpoint if feasible - Monitor for suspicious privilege changes or unexpected administrative actions
Note: These are temporary mitigations and do not fully eliminate the vulnerability. Upgrading is strongly recommended.
Credits
Neko thanks @blitzkrieg-patch for responsibly disclosing this vulnerability and reaching out directly. This contribution helped strengthen the project, and the whole community benefits from it.

"details": "### Impact\n\nAny authenticated user can immediately obtain full administrative control of the entire Neko instance (member management, room settings, broadcast control, session termination, etc.). This results in a complete compromise of the instance.\n\n### Patches\n\nThe vulnerability has been patched in the following releases:\n\n- [v3.0.11](https://github.com/m1k1o/neko/releases/tag/v3.0.11) (backport release)\n- [v3.1.2](https://github.com/m1k1o/neko/releases/tag/v3.1.2) (latest stable release)\n\nUsers should upgrade to [v3.0.11](https://github.com/m1k1o/neko/releases/tag/v3.0.11) or later (for the 3.0 branch) or [v3.1.2](https://github.com/m1k1o/neko/releases/tag/v3.1.2) or later.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nIf upgrading is not immediately possible, the following mitigations can reduce risk:\n\n- Restrict access to trusted users only (avoid granting accounts to untrusted parties)\n- Run the instance only when needed; avoid leaving it continuously exposed\n- Disable or restrict access to the `/api/profile` endpoint if feasible\n- Monitor for suspicious privilege changes or unexpected administrative actions\n\nNote: These are temporary mitigations and do not fully eliminate the vulnerability. Upgrading is strongly recommended.\n\n### Credits\nNeko thanks @blitzkrieg-patch for responsibly disclosing this vulnerability and reaching out directly. This contribution helped strengthen the project, and the whole community benefits from it.",

Mitigation
- Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
- Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].
Mitigation MIT-4.4
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
- For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
- For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
- One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.
CAPEC-665: Exploitation of Thunderbolt Protection Flaws
An adversary leverages a firmware weakness within the Thunderbolt protocol, on a computing device to manipulate Thunderbolt controller firmware in order to exploit vulnerabilities in the implementation of authorization and verification schemes within Thunderbolt protection mechanisms. Upon gaining physical access to a target device, the adversary conducts high-level firmware manipulation of the victim Thunderbolt controller SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) flash, through the use of a SPI Programing device and an external Thunderbolt device, typically as the target device is booting up. If successful, this allows the adversary to modify memory, subvert authentication mechanisms, spoof identities and content, and extract data and memory from the target device. Currently 7 major vulnerabilities exist within Thunderbolt protocol with 9 attack vectors as noted in the Execution Flow.
