CVE-2017-7149
HighSummary
An issue was discovered in certain Apple products, including macOS before 10.13 Supplemental Update, related to the 'StorageKit' component. It allows attackers to discover passwords for APFS encrypted volumes by reading Disk Utility hints, as the stored hint value was accidentally set to the password itself.
Risk Assessment
Organizations may be exposed to unauthorized access to data if attackers obtain passwords for encrypted volumes. This could lead to serious data security breaches.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update systems to macOS 10.13 or later to mitigate this vulnerability. Additionally, conducting an audit of passwords and security related to encrypted volumes is advisable.

Joomla Extension - balbooa.com - Unauthenticated RCE via field shortcode injection in Balbooa Forms < 2.4.3.4 - Balbooa Forms supports administrator-defined PHP code which runs after a public form submission. The feature also supports form-field shortcodes inside that PHP. Before calling `eval()`, the component replaces each shortcode with the raw value submitted by the visitor, leading to an RCE vector. A public form must use the product's optional PHP-after-submission action and interpolate an attacker-controlled field shortcode inside a double-quoted PHP string to be vulnerable.
