∗∗∗ Nationale Policy für die koordinierte Offenlegung von Schwachstellen (CVD) ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Der Umgang mit Schwachstellen in IT Produkten und Dienstleistungen ist eine der spannenden Themen in der IT-Sicherheit. Seitens der Hersteller stellt sich die Frage, wie man am besten selbst Probleme identifiziert, wie man mit Meldungen von Dritten am umgeht, wie der Prozess zur Entwicklung von korrigierten Versionen aussieht und wie man diese neue Version schnell und effizient an die Kunden verteilt. Seitens der Finder (Researcher) stellen sich Fragen nach den rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen für die Schwachstellensuche: was darf ich, was sicher nicht, und wie kommuniziere ich das Ergebnis am sinnvollsten?

∗∗∗ WhatsApp provides no cryptographic management for group messages ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
The weakness creates the possibility of an insider or hacker adding rogue members. [..] “This means that it is possible for the WhatsApp server to add new members to a group,” Martin R. Albrecht, a researcher at King's College in London, wrote in an email. “A correct client—like the official clients—will display this change but will not prevent it. Thus, any group chat that does not verify who has been added to the chat can potentially have their messages read.”

The vulnerabilities impact SMA 200, SMA 210, SMA 400, SMA 410, and SMA 500v devices and are patched in firmware version 10.2.1.15-81sv and higher. [..] SonicWall advised admins to check their SMA devices' logs for any signs of unauthorized logins and enable the web application firewall and multifactor authentication (MFA) on their SMA100 appliances as a safety measure.

∗∗∗ Jetzt patchen! Angreifer setzen erneut an älteren Sonicwall-Lücken an ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Aufgrund von laufenden Attacken sollten Admins ihre Fernwartungslösungen der SMA-Serie von Sonicwall umgehend auf den aktuellen Stand bringen.
