CVE-2006-2492
HighSummary
A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in Microsoft Word in Office 2000 SP3, Office XP SP3, Office 2003 SP1 and SP2, and Microsoft Works Suites through 2006. This allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed object pointer.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can remotely execute arbitrary code on the victim's machine, leading to full system compromise, data theft, or malware installation.
Recommendation
Apply the security update provided by Microsoft for affected Office and Works versions immediately. Additionally, exercise caution when opening files from untrusted sources.

WWBN AVideo contains a broken access control vulnerability in videoViewsInfo endpoints that returns complete user records including password hashes, recovery tokens, and live session identifiers to unauthenticated callers when a hash parameter is provided. Attackers can use the disclosed session identifier to hijack viewer sessions, including administrator accounts, and obtain sensitive personal data for all video viewers.
- CVE-2026-86189Critical
WWBN AVideo contains a path traversal vulnerability in notify.ffmpeg.json.php that allows unauthenticated attackers to write files to arbitrary locations by supplying a caller-chosen path in the avideoRelativePath parameter. Attackers can replay any previously issued ciphertext as a notifyCode token, which is decrypted but never validated, to bypass authentication and write files to the application root and subdirectories.

Lara Dashboard before 1.3.0 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the screenshot-login route that allows unauthenticated attackers to authenticate as any user by email when APP_ENV is not production. Attackers can request the GET /screenshot-login/{email} endpoint with a registered email address to receive a fully authenticated session, enabling access to user administration, settings, database contents, and arbitrary code execution through the module installer.

The Mail Mint – Email Marketing, Newsletter, Email Automation & WooCommerce Emails plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 1.31.0 via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'handle_form_submission' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. The additional presence of a POP chain allows attackers to execute code on the server. The vulnerability was partially patched in version 1.23.1.
- CVE-2026-86124Critical
AutoAgent contains an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the TCP server that binds to all interfaces and executes attacker-supplied commands as root. Attackers can connect to the exposed communication port and execute arbitrary bash commands within the container, gaining access to bind-mounted host workspace directories.
- CVE-2026-86121Critical
Cua computer-server versions before 0.3.42 skip authentication when the CONTAINER_NAME environment variable is unset and bind to all interfaces by default, allowing unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary commands. Attackers can reach TCP port 8000 to run shell commands via the run_command endpoint, read and write arbitrary files through file operation endpoints, and access interactive PTY shells without authentication.
- CVE-2024-11080Critical
The Post Grid and Gutenberg Blocks – ComboBlocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unauthenticated Hook Injection in versions 2.2.32 to 2.3.1 via several functions in the ~/includes/blocks/form-wrap/function.php file. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute actions with hooks in WordPress, granted no other security controls are present in the function.
- CVE-2026-13447Critical
The Mstore Api plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass via JWT Forgery in versions up to, and including, 4.20.0. This is due to missing cryptographic signature verification in the FirebasePhoneAuthHelper::verify_id_token() function, which decodes and validates Firebase ID token claims (alg, kid, aud, iss) but never calls openssl_verify() or any equivalent to validate the JWT signature against Google's actual public key certificates. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to forge a Firebase Phone Auth JWT signed with a self-generated RSA key pair and impersonate any phone number, resulting in unauthorized access to existing WordPress accounts or creation of new arbitrary accounts.
- CVE-2026-52777Critical
YesWiki is a wiki system written in PHP. Prior to version 4.6.6, there is an authenticated PHP object injection vulnerability in BazarImportAction via unserialize. This issue has been patched in version 4.6.6.
- CVE-2026-52766Critical
YesWiki prior to version 4.6.6 has a vulnerability in the {{erasespamedcomments}} wiki action that deletes arbitrary wiki pages without authorization based on a suppr[] array from POST. The default ACL model allows any user with write access to delete pages, including the front page and admin pages.
