∗∗∗ Transparent Tribe: Evolution analysis,part 1 ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Transparent Tribe, also known as PROJECTM and MYTHIC LEOPARD, is a highly prolific group whose activities can be traced as far back as 2013. Proofpoint published a very good article about them in 2016, and since that day, we have kept an eye on the group. [...] The USBWorm component is real, and it has been detected on hundreds of systems. This is malware whose existence was already speculated about years ago, but as far as we know, it has never been publicly described.

So that being said, how can we look for these things if you have hundreds, thousands or tens-of-thousands of mailboxes to consider? In an Office 365 shop, and especially if I wrote the code, the answer is most likely going to be PowerShell!

∗∗∗ IBM Db2 Shared Memory Vulnerability (CVE-2020-4414) ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
I’ve recently blogged about a shared memory vulnerability in Cisco WebEx Meetings Client on Windows where any user can read memory dedicated to trace data. It turns out that this is a common problem. IBM Db2 is affected by the exact same type of problem. Developers forgot to put explicit memory protections around the shared memory used by the Db2 trace facility. This allows any local users read and write access to that memory area.
