Orange Tsai tweeted a few hours ago about “One of [his] PHP vulnerabilities, which affects XAMPP by default”, and we were curious to say the least. XAMPP is a very popular way for administrators and developers to rapidly deploy Apache, PHP, and a bunch of other tools, and any bug
Stealing everything you’ve ever typed or viewed on your own Windows PC is now possible with two lines of code — inside the Copilot+ Recall disaster.
I wrote a piece recently about Copilot+ Recall, a new Microsoft Windows 11 feature which — in the words of Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella- takes “screenshots” of your PC constantly, and makes it into an…

What a Cluster: Local Volumes Vulnerability in Kubernetes
Akamai security researcher Tomer Peled recently discovered a high-severity vulnerability in Kubernetes that was assigned CVE-2023-5528 with a CVSS score of 7.2. The vulnerability allows remote code execution with SYSTEM privileges on all Windows endpoints within a Kubernetes cluster. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker needs to apply malicious YAML files on the cluster. This vulnerability can lead to full takeover on all Windows nodes in a cluster. This vulnerability can be exploited on default installations of Kubernetes (earlier than version 1.28.4), and was tested against both on-prem deployments and Azure Kubernetes Service. In this blog post, we provide a proof-of-concept YAML file as well as an Open Policy Agent (OPA) rule for blocking this vulnerability.
Kubernetes Vulnerability Allows Remote Code Execution on Windows Endpoints
The exploitation of a high-severity Kubernetes vulnerability can lead to arbitrary code execution with System privileges on all Windows endpoints in a cluster, Akamai warns. The issue, tracked as CVE-2023-5528 and impacting default Kubernetes installations, exists in the way the open source container orchestration system processes YAML files, which it uses for virtually every function. In some regards, the vulnerability is like CVE-2023-3676, a lack of sanitization in the subPath parameter in YAML files leading to code injection when creating pods with volumes.
