Modern AI systems, especially large language models (LLMs), are no longer isolated engines responding to static inputs. They’re evolving into intelligent agents, copilots, and autonomous systems that interact with their environment, reason over external data, and adapt in real time. But there’s a fundamental problem: LLMs are powerful, but they don’t know anything outside of […]

We are actively responding to a significant security breach involving the widely used GitHub Action, tj-actions/changed-files. Current findings indicate that nearly all tagged versions of tj-actions/changed-files have been compromised, resulting in direct access to running containers and virtual machines’ memory, allowing the extraction of sensitive secrets, information, and code. This is happening through the following command […]

A critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability was recently discovered in python-json-logger, a widely used Python package for structured logging. This flaw, affecting versions 3.2.0 and 3.2.1, arises due to a missing dependency: msgspec-python313-pre. The package was deleted from PyPI, leaving its name unclaimed. This vulnerability highlights a recurring yet dangerous issue in software supply […]

Overview Apache has released a security update to address an important Apache Tomcat vulnerability (CVE-2024-56337) that could result in remote code execution (RCE) under certain conditions. This new CVE is closely tied to the earlier Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition vulnerability during JSP compilation (CVE-2024-50379), for which an incomplete mitigation was issued on December 17, […]

A critical security vulnerability identified as CVE-2024-10220 has been discovered in Kubernetes’ deprecated gitRepo volume type. This vulnerability allows attackers with permissions to create pods using gitRepo volumes to execute arbitrary commands on the host node with root privileges, potentially leading to full system compromise. The gitRepo volume type was designed to clone Git repositories […]

A critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability identified as CVE-2024-21534 has been discovered in versions of the jsonpath-plus package before 10.0.0. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems by exploiting improper input sanitization and the unsafe default usage of the vm module in Node.js. jsonpath-plus is a JavaScript implementation of JSONPath […]

Upwind’s research team dives into the latest cloud ransomware threats and top ways to protect your organization. The webinar recording also covers the recent CUPS RCE zero-day vulnerability and looks at how to safeguard your systems.

Several critical Linux vulnerabilities have been declared, involving a bug in CUPS, the Common UNIX Printing System. All versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) are among the Linux distributions affected, but not in default configuration.  There are four vulnerabilities that have been identified and allocated the following CVEs – CVE-2024-47076, CVE-2024-47175, CVE-2024-47176 and CVE-2024-47177. […]

Cloud environments have changed how organizations manage their infrastructure, offering flexibility and scalability. But these benefits also bring new risks, and even small mistakes in cloud security can have serious consequences. For example, Google Cloud once accidentally deleted data from a $125 billion Australian pension fund due to a simple configuration error. Although this wasn’t […]

Docker has released crucial updates addressing a critical vulnerability in Docker Engine that could allow attackers to bypass authorization plugins (AuthZ). This issue has a low likelihood of being exploited, but all Docker installations need to upgrade to the latest versions immediately. Docker EE v19.03.x and all versions of Mirantis Container Runtime are not affected. […]
