An issue was discovered on Samsung mobile devices with O(8.x), P(9.0), and Q(10.0) software. Any application may establish itself as the default dialer, without user interaction. The Samsung ID is SVE-2020-19172 (December 2020).
An issue was discovered on Samsung mobile devices with O(8.x), P(9.0), Q(10.0), and R(11.0) software. Attackers can bypass Factory Reset Protection (FRP) via StatusBar. The Samsung ID is SVE-2020-17888 (December 2020).
An issue was discovered on Samsung mobile devices with O(8.x), P(9.0), and Q(10.0) (Exynos chipsets) software. They allow attackers to conduct RPMB state-change attacks because an unauthorized RPMB write operation can be replayed, a related issue to CVE-2020-13799. The Samsung ID is SVE-2020-18100 (December 2020).
In MediaWiki before 1.35.1, the combination of Html::rawElement and Message::text leads to XSS because the definition of MediaWiki:recentchanges-legend-watchlistexpiry can be changed onwiki so that the output is raw HTML.
In MediaWiki before 1.35.1, the messages userrights-expiry-current and userrights-expiry-none can contain raw HTML. XSS can happen when a user visits Special:UserRights but does not have rights to change all userrights, and the table on the left side has unchangeable groups in it. (The right column with the changeable groups is not affected and is escaped correctly.)
MediaWiki before 1.35.1 blocks legitimate attempts to hide log entries in some situations. If one sets MediaWiki:Mainpage to Special:MyLanguage/Main Page, visits a log entry on Special:Log, and toggles the "Change visibility of selected log entries" checkbox (or a tags checkbox) next to it, there is a redirection to the main page's action=historysubmit (instead of the desired behavior in which a revision-deletion form appears).
MediaWiki before 1.35.1 allows XSS via BlockLogFormatter.php. MediaWiki:blanknamespace potentially can be output as raw HTML with SCRIPT tags via LogFormatter::makePageLink(). This affects MediaWiki 1.33.0 and later.
MediaWiki before 1.35.1 allows XSS via BlockLogFormatter.php. Language::translateBlockExpiry itself does not escape in all code paths. For example, the return of Language::userTimeAndDate is is always unsafe for HTML in a month value. This affects MediaWiki 1.12.0 and later.
An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.1. Missing users (accounts that don't exist) and hidden users (accounts that have been explicitly hidden due to being abusive, or similar) that the viewer cannot see are handled differently, exposing sensitive information about the hidden status to unprivileged viewers. This exists on various code paths.
The AWV component of Mitel MiCollab before 9.2 could allow an attacker to view system information by sending arbitrary code due to improper input validation, aka XSS.
