Backup and Staging by WP Time Capsule SQL Backup Exposure Vulnerability
The Backup and Staging by WP Time Capsule plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.22.26 via the download_recent_decrypted_file_wptc. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to extract download the most recently admin-decrypted SQL database backup, which typically contains password hashes, user credentials, and other sensitive site configuration data stored in the 'recent_decrypted_file' option. Exploitation requires that an administrator has previously performed a decrypt action, causing the decrypted SQL backup file to exist in the plugin's upload directory; without this prior admin action, there is no file to serve.

Vinchin Backup & Recovery agentlink_server Heap Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Vinchin Backup & Recovery through 9.0.0.86562 contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to cause process crash or memory corruption by sending a malformed TCP packet with an unchecked body_len field to the agentlink_server service. Attackers can craft a malicious packet that passes an attacker-controlled length directly to recv(), triggering a heap overflow of up to approximately 4 GiB and resulting in process crash or potential memory corruption.

Vinchin Backup & Recovery agentlink_server Stack Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Vinchin Backup & Recovery through 9.0.0.86562 contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in the ModuleHandShake function of the agentlink_server service that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to overwrite the saved return address by supplying an oversized _listen_uuid field that is measured via strlen() and copied without bounds checking into a fixed-length stack buffer using strcpy(). Attackers can send a crafted request with a malicious _listen_uuid value to corrupt the stack and achieve process crash or potential control flow hijack without requiring authentication.
