CVE-2025-69257

Oh theshit! From Typo Fixer to Root Shell via Python Injection

Executive Summary (TL;DR)

The command-line tool `theshit` loads custom Python rule files from the user's configuration directory. Prior to version 0.1.1, it failed to verify file ownership when running with elevated privileges (e.g., via `sudo`). An attacker can place a malicious Python script in their own config folder, wait for an administrator to run the tool to fix a command, and achieve immediate root code execution.

A classic Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) in the 'theshit' command correction utility, allowing unprivileged users to execute arbitrary Python code as root due to unsafe loading of user configuration files.

CVE-2026-56677: Unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery in 9Router OIDC Test Endpoint

A high-severity security vulnerability exists in 9Router, an AI router and token saver dashboard. When dashboard authentication features are disabled or left in default configurations, the application exposes administrative testing routines directly to the public internet. Unauthenticated network adversaries can exploit the OIDC configuration validation endpoint to initiate arbitrary HTTP requests, routing unauthorized traffic to local loops, adjacent container ports, and cloud resource metadata interfaces.

CVE-2026-64849: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in MLflow Webhooks via DNS Rebinding

CVE-2026-64849 is a critical Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability affecting MLflow tracking servers prior to version 3.15.0. It allows unauthenticated remote attackers to bypass outbound request destination filters using DNS rebinding or HTTP redirects. This exposure risks compromising sensitive cloud infrastructure metadata and internal microservices.

CVE-2026-69146: Missing Authorization Bypass in MLflow Basic Authentication Middleware

This technical report details a missing authorization vulnerability (CVE-2026-69146 / GHSA-3p64-6gvh-82v5) affecting the MLflow platform from version 3.13.0 to 3.15.0. When MLflow is configured with the built-in basic-auth plugin, authenticated users can bypass run-level UPDATE authorization checks, enabling unauthorized dataset and model lineage metadata injection.

GHSA-FHGH-WQ4Q-R37X: Remote Code Execution via Sigstore Signature Verification Bypass in uniget CLI

A high-severity logic inversion flaw in the uniget CLI completely bypasses Sigstore cryptographic signature verification on metadata files by default. If an attacker can poison the package metadata cache or repository, they can execute arbitrary OS commands under the privileges of the active user.
