AI Sec Watch

Haystack is a framework for building applications with LLMs (large language models) and AI tools, but versions before 2.3.1 have a critical vulnerability where attackers can execute arbitrary code if they can create and render Jinja2 templates (template engines that generate dynamic text). This affects Haystack clients that allow users to create and run Pipelines, which are workflows that process data through multiple steps.

A bug in TensorFlow (an open source platform for building machine learning models) causes a segfault (a crash where the program tries to access memory it shouldn't) when the `array_ops.upper_bound` function receives input that is not a rank 2 tensor (a two-dimensional array of numbers).

Langflow versions before 1.0.13 have a privilege escalation vulnerability (a security flaw where an attacker gains higher access rights than they should have) that lets a remote attacker with low privileges become a super admin by sending a specially crafted request to the '/api/v1/users' endpoint using mass assignment (a technique where an attacker modifies multiple fields at once by exploiting how the application handles user input).

Microsoft's Copilot Studio is a low-code platform that lets employees build chatbots, but it has security risks including data leaks and unauthorized access when Copilots are misconfigured. The post warns that external attackers can find and interact with improperly set-up Copilots, and discusses how to protect organizational data using security controls.

CVE-2024-41120 is a vulnerability in streamlit-geospatial, a web application for geospatial data analysis, where user input to a URL field is not validated before being sent to a file-reading function. This allows attackers to make the server send requests to any destination they choose, a technique called SSRF (server-side request forgery, where an attacker tricks a server into making unwanted requests to other systems). The vulnerability affects code before a specific commit that patches the issue.

streamlit-geospatial is a web application for working with geographic data, but it has a critical vulnerability where user input is directly passed to the eval() function (a dangerous Python function that executes code), allowing attackers to run arbitrary code on the server. The vulnerability was fixed in commit c4f81d9616d40c60584e36abb15300853a66e489.

streamlit-geospatial, an application for mapping geographic data, has a vulnerability where user input is passed directly to a function that makes web requests to any server the attacker specifies, known as SSRF (server-side request forgery, where an attacker tricks a server into making unwanted requests on their behalf). This allows attackers to make the application send requests to arbitrary destinations.

streamlit-geospatial, an application for working with geographic data in Streamlit (a Python framework for building data apps), has a vulnerability where user input is directly passed to the eval() function (which executes code from text), allowing attackers to run arbitrary code on the server. The vulnerability was fixed in commit c4f81d9616d40c60584e36abb15300853a66e489.

streamlit-geospatial is a mapping application built with Streamlit (a framework for creating data apps). Before a certain update, the app took user input into a variable called `vis_params` and then ran it through the `eval()` function (which executes code), allowing attackers to run arbitrary commands on the server.
