Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc.Breach85411/2017
Rankiteo Explanation :
Attack with significant impact with customers data leaks

Description: On November 2, 2017, Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. experienced a data breach reported by the California Office of the Attorney General on December 5, 2017. The incident involved the unauthorized compromise of **personal health information (PHI)**, though the exact number of affected individuals remains undisclosed. The breach exposed sensitive medical and personally identifiable data, posing risks such as identity theft, financial fraud, or misuse of health records. Given the nature of the compromised information—health data—this incident carries severe implications for patient privacy, trust in the healthcare provider, and potential regulatory penalties under laws like **HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)**. The lack of clarity on the scale of the breach further complicates mitigation efforts, leaving affected individuals vulnerable to long-term consequences. Healthcare breaches of this nature often trigger investigations by regulatory bodies, legal repercussions, and reputational damage that can erode patient confidence. The exposure of PHI also heightens the risk of targeted phishing attacks or blackmail, particularly if the data includes diagnoses, treatment histories, or insurance details. Kaiser’s response—including notification protocols, remediation measures, and transparency—would be critical in determining the long-term impact on its operations and public perception.

Description

FreePBX Endpoint Manager is a module for managing telephony endpoints in FreePBX systems. Versions prior to 16.0.96 and 17.0.1 through 17.0.9 have a weak default password. By default, this is a 6 digit numeric value which can be brute forced. (This is the app_password parameter). Depending on local configuration, this password could be the extension, voicemail, user manager, DPMA or EPM phone admin password. This issue is fixed in versions 16.0.96 and 17.0.10.

Description

Neuron is a PHP framework for creating and orchestrating AI Agents. In versions 2.8.11 and below, the MySQLWriteTool executes arbitrary SQL provided by the caller using PDO::prepare() + execute() without semantic restrictions. This is consistent with the name (“write tool”), but in an LLM/agent context it becomes a high-risk capability: prompt injection or indirect prompt manipulation can cause execution of destructive queries such as DROP TABLE, TRUNCATE, DELETE, ALTER, or privilege-related statements (subject to DB permissions). Deployments that expose an agent with MySQLWriteTool enabled to untrusted input and/or run the tool with a DB user that has broad privileges are impacted. This issue is fixed in version 2.8.12.

Description

Neuron is a PHP framework for creating and orchestrating AI Agents. Versions 2.8.11 and below use MySQLSelectTool, which is vulnerable to Read-Only Bypass. MySQLSelectTool is intended to be a read-only SQL tool (e.g., for LLM agent querying, however, validation based on the first keyword (e.g., SELECT) and a forbidden-keyword list does not block file-writing constructs such as INTO OUTFILE / INTO DUMPFILE. As a result, an attacker who can influence the tool input (e.g., via prompt injection through a public agent endpoint) may write arbitrary files to the DB server if the MySQL/MariaDB account has the FILE privilege and server configuration permits writes to a useful location (e.g., a web-accessible directory). This issue is fixed in version 2.8.12.
