Summary
Rapid7 Velociraptor before version 0.76.6 contains a YAML injection vulnerability. An attacker can supply a crafted ZIP file that, when applied by an analyst, executes arbitrary VQL code with full privileges.
Risk Assessment
An analyst applying the remapping file may unknowingly execute malicious code, leading to workstation compromise and potential data leakage.
Recommendation
Update Velociraptor to version 0.76.6 or later.

SunEditor before 3.4.0 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability because the html.clean() sanitizer's _normalizeURL() function decodes named entities like : to an empty string. Attackers can inject href values such as javascript: that pass the _isSafeURL() check but are decoded by browsers, executing JavaScript when victims click stored links.

OpenEMR before 8.3.0 contains an SQL injection vulnerability in the Fee Sheet drug-inventory lookup (DrugSalesService::sellDrug) that interpolates the prod[N][warehouse] POST field into an ORDER BY clause. Low-privileged authenticated users can submit Fee Sheet product lines with constant subqueries to run a time-based blind oracle, extracting patient data and users_secure bcrypt hashes.
Original NVD description (English source)
A YAML injection vulnerability exists in the Windows.Collectors.Remapping artifact of Rapid7 Velociraptor before version 0.76.6. The hostname field in client_info.json inside a collection ZIP is inserted into a YAML template via Go's text/template without escaping. An attacker providing a crafted collection ZIP can leverage literal double quotes and newlines in the hostname to break out of the YAML quoted string and inject a new mount remapping entry. When an analyst applies the generated remapping file with --remap, arbitrary VQL executes on their machine with NullACLManager (all permissions granted, unsandboxed).
