*** TR-32 - key-value store and NoSQL security recommendations ***
---------------------------------------------
Key-value stores, caches or NoSQL databases became an important piece of software in today's internet and web services. In contrast to conventional DB sytems, the security model of NoSQL data stores is often very limited due to their inherent nature to be used within internal trusted networks. Strong attention should be given to the configuration of key-value stores especially regarding their access from the Internet.

*** Bindead - a static analysis tool for binaries. ***
---------------------------------------------
Bindead is an analyzer for executable machine code. It features a disassembler that translates machine code bits into an assembler like language (RREIL) that in turn is then analyzed by the static analysis component using abstract interpretation. As Bindead operates on the machine code level, it can be used without having the source code of the program to be analyzed. In fact, the purpose of Bindead is to help with the reverse engineering of executable code or binaries.

Noryungi (70322) writes Theo De Raadt roundly criticized NTP due to its recent security advisories, and pointed out that OpenBSD OpenNTPD was not vulnerable. However, it also had not been made portable to other OS in a long time. Brent Cook, also known for his work on the portable version of LibreSSL (OpenBSD cleanup and refactoring of OpenSSL) decided to take the matter in his own hands and released a new portable version of OpenNTPD. Everyone rejoice, compile and report issues!

*** Metasploit Weekly Wrapup: Get the 411 ***
---------------------------------------------
This week, we released Metasploit version 4.11 to the world -- feel free to download it here if you're the sort that prefers the binary install over the somewhat Byzantine procedure for setting up a development environment. Which you should be, because the binary installers (for Windows and Linux) have all the dependencies baked in and you don't have to monkey around with much to get going. The two major features with this release center around reorganizing the bruteforce workflow to make things more sensible and usable for larger-scale password audits, and much better visualization on figuring out where the weak link is/was in the organization under test when stolen credentials were used to extend control.

When DNS names expire, attackers gain the opportunity to take resource ownership by re-registering domain names that are referenced by corresponding RIR database objects.

Researchers at Palo Alto found that many ROM images used for Android smart phones manufactured by Coolpad contain a backdoor, giving an attacker full control of the device. Palo Alto named the backdoor Coolreaper. With Android, it is very common for manufacturers to install additional applications. But these applications are installed on top of the Android operating system. In this case, Coolpad integrated additional functionality into the firmware of the device. This backdoor was then used by

*** Is POODLE Back for Another Byte? ***
---------------------------------------------
[...] The problem is a number of other TLS implementations are optimized for performance by verifying only that the first byte of padding matches the number of padding bytes. Such implementations would accept any value for the second and subsequent padding bytes. What's worse is that the adversary doesn't need to artificially downgrade the connection to SSLv3 to exploit this issue, so the barriers to execution are lower.

In essence, an attacker builds a transparent tunnel between the client and the server, but makes sure that the client negotiates the secure connection with the attacker, instead of the intended server. Thus the client instead of having a secure connection to the server, has a secure connection to the attacker, which in turn has set up its own secure connection to the server, so...

With POODLE behind us, it is time to get ready for the next SSL firedrill. One of the questions that keeps coming up is which ciphers and SSL/TLS versions are actually in use. If you decide to turn off SSLv3 or not depends a lot on who needs it, and it is an important answer to have ready should tomorrow some other cipher turn out to be too weak. But keep in mind that it is not just numbers that matter. You also need to figure out who the outliers are and how important (or dangerous?) they are.

---------------------------------------------
OpenSSH lets you grant SFTP access to users without allowing full command execution using "ForceCommand internal-sftp". However, if you misconfigure the server and dont use ChrootDirectory, the user will be able to access all parts of the filesystem that he has access to - including procfs. On modern Linux kernels (>=2.6.39, I think), /proc/self/maps reveals the memory layout and /proc/self/mem lets you write to arbitrary memory positions. Combine those and you get easy RCE.
