The article "QNAP QTS - QNAPping At The Wheel (CVE-2024-27130 and friends)" from WatchTowr Labs provides a detailed analysis of several vulnerabilities found in QNAP NAS devices.

CVE-2024-27130. Stack Buffer Overflow in share.cgi: The vulnerability arises from the unsafe use of the strcpy function in the No_Support_ACL function, which is accessible via the get_file_size function in share.cgi. This leads to a stack buffer overflow, which can be exploited to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE).

Another document to analyze. This time, it's the riveting "MalPurifier: Enhancing Android Malware Detection with Adversarial Purification against Evasion Attacks." Because, you know, the world really needed another paper on Android malware detection.

First, we'll dive into the Introduction and Motivation to understand why yet another solution to the ever-escalating threats of Android malware is necessary. Spoiler alert: it's because current machine learning-based approaches are as vulnerable as a house of cards in a windstorm.

CVE-2024-3400 (+ url + github url#1, url#2) is a critical command injection vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks' PAN-OS software, specifically affecting the GlobalProtect feature. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the affected firewall. The vulnerability impacts PAN-OS versions 10.2, 11.0, and 11.1 when configured with GlobalProtect gateway or GlobalProtect portal.
