∗∗∗ Apache issues patches for critical Struts 2 RCE bug ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
More details released after devs allowed weeks to apply fixes. We now know the remote code execution vulnerability in Apache Struts 2 disclosed back in November carries a near-maximum severity rating following the publication of the CVE. [..] Considering remote attackers could exploit the vulnerability without requiring any privileges, combined with the high impact to system confidentiality, integrity, and availability, it's likely the Apache Foundation withheld the juiciest details to allow customers to upgrade to a safe version (Struts 6.4.0 or greater).

The issue impacts all versions of Hunk Companion before the latest 1.9.0, released yesterday, which addressed the problem. While investigating a WordPress site infection, WPScan discovered active exploitation of CVE-2024-11972 to install a vulnerable version of WP Query Console. [..] By installing outdated plugins with known vulnerabilities with available exploits, the attackers can access a large pool of flaws that lead to remote code execution (RCE), SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS) flaws, or create backdoor admin accounts.

Cybersecurity researchers at Group-IB have exposed an ongoing phishing operation that has been targeting employees and associates from over 30 companies across 12 industries and 15 jurisdictions.

On Tuesday, an international team of researchers unveiled BadRAM, a proof-of-concept attack that completely undermines security assurances that chipmaker AMD makes to users of one of its most expensive and well-fortified microprocessor product lines. Starting with the AMD Epyc 7003 processor, a feature known as SEV-SNP—short for Secure Encrypted Virtualization and Secure Nested Paging—has provided the cryptographic means for certifying that a VM hasn’t been compromised by any sort of backdoor installed by someone with access to the physical machine running it.

Indirect prompt attacks are when an LLM takes input from external sources but where an attacker gets to smuggle payloads (additional prompts!) into these external/side sources. These malicious additional prompts modify the overall prompt, breaking out of the data context as they are treated as instructions (they are additional prompts, commands, if you will) and, in turn, influence the initial user prompt provided together with the system prompt and with that, the subsequent actions and output.

Zloader (a.k.a. Terdot, DELoader, or Silent Night) is a modular Trojan based on the leaked Zeus source code that emerged in 2015.

However, similar to other malware families like Qakbot and Trickbot, Zloader has been repurposed for initial access, providing an entry point into corporate environments for the deployment of ransomware.

∗∗∗ On Almost Signing Android Builds ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
This blog post has two goals: to raise awareness about this issue, to introduce a script intended as a quick check to verify if an Android build was (incorrectly) signed with a known private key. When Android-based devices boot up, first the bootloader is verified to be running signed code, then the bootloader verifies the high-level operating system (HLOS). This blog post only covers the latter part.

In other words: give it a read and learn from this critical infrastructure organization's mistakes – and the things it did well – to keep real criminals out of your IT environment.

∗∗∗ Bigger and badder: how DDoS attack sizes have evolved over the last decade ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
If we plot the metrics associated with large DDoS attacks observed in the last 10 years, does it show a straight, steady increase in an exponential curve that keeps becoming steeper, or is it closer to a linear growth? Our analysis found the growth is not linear but rather is exponential, with the slope varying depending on the metric (rps, pps or bps).

While the FortiJump patch does effectively neutralise the devastating RCE that is FortiJump, we’re still a little concerned about FortiManager’s overall code quality. We note that our som/export vulnerability, ‘FortiJump Higher’, is still functional, even in patched versions, allowing adversaries to elevate from one managed FortiGate appliance to the central FortiManager appliance.
