DNS interception, even if well-meaning, does undermine some of the basic "internet trust issues".

Researchers have discovered two novel attack methods targeting high-performance Intel CPUs that could be exploited to stage a key recovery attack against the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm. The techniques have been collectively dubbed Pathfinder by a group of academics from the University of California San Diego, Purdue University, UNC Chapel Hill, Georgia Institute of Technology, and Google. [..] Following responsible disclosure in November 2023, Intel, in an advisory released last month, said Pathfinder builds on Spectre v1 attacks and that previously deployed mitigations for Spectre v1 and traditional side-channels mitigate the reported exploits. There is no evidence that it impacts AMD CPUs.

Recently, Microsoft had quite frankly a kicking from the US Department of Homeland Security over their security practices in a Cyber Safety Review Board report. I’ve tried to keep as quiet as possible about this one for various reasons (and I was not involved in the CSRB report, even anonymously) — although long time followers will know I’ve been often critical of Microsoft’s security posture. The CSRB report is well worth a read — they did a great job. [..] As always, the proof is in the pudding, not the vendor blog. I think these changes will take a few years to start to work through, and fully expect a few more clanger breaches in the mean time. And that’s annoying but okay, because hard work is hard.

---------------------------------------------
Before diving into the vulnerability, a bit about the affected devices. LB-Link, the make of the devices affected by this vulnerability, produces various wireless equipment that is sometimes sold under different brands and labels. This will make it difficult to identify affected devices. These devices are often low-cost "no name" solutions or, in some cases, may even be embedded, which makes it even more difficult to find firmware updates. [..] And yes, the vulnerability evolves around the "user=admin" cookie and a command injection in the password parameter. This is too stupid to waste any more time on, but it is common enough to just give up and call it a day.

---------------------------------------------
Seit Januar 2024 kämpfen Nutzer von Windows 10 und Windows 11 (sowie Windows Server 2022) mit dem Versuch Microsofts, ein Update der WinRE-Umgebung zu installieren. Im Januar 2024 ließen zahlreiche Nutzer im Umfeld des Patchday beim Versuch, das Update KB5034441 zu installieren, in den Installationsfehler 0x80070643. Trotz mehrerer Versuche zur Nachbesserung in den Folgemonaten ist es Microsoft nicht gelungen, den Installationsfehler zu beseitigen. Nun kommt das Eingeständnis, dass es keinen automatischen Fix für das Update gibt – es ist Handarbeit angesagt.

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a previously undocumented malware targeting Android devices that uses compromised WordPress sites as relays for its actual command-and-control (C2) servers for detection evasion. The malware, codenamed Wpeeper, is an ELF binary that leverages the HTTPS protocol to secure its C2 communications. [..] The ELF binary is embedded within a repackaged application that purports to be the UPtodown App Store app for Android (package name "com.uptodown"), with the APK file acting as a delivery vehicle for the backdoor in a manner that evades detection.

This lays the ground for requesting to take the conversation outside the platform onto a supposedly safer communications tool. At this stage, the fraudster sends a link to the victim that will take them to a seemingly legitimate verification platform where the victim will have to verify they're not a sexual offender.

Beim Schreiben unserer Stellungnahmen zum Entwurf des NISG 2024 habe ich mir die Paragrafen, die uns betreffen, genauer angesehen.

Obwohl Sogou das Problem nach Bekanntwerden im letzten Jahr behoben hat, sind viele vorinstallierte Sogou-Tastaturen nicht auf dem neuesten Stand und können weiterhin abgehört werden.

∗∗∗ IBM QRadar - When The Attacker Controls Your Security Stack (CVE-2022-26377) ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Today, in this iteration of 'watchTowr Labs takes aim at yet another piece of software' we wonder why the industry panics about backdoors in libraries that have taken 2 years to be unsuccessfully introduced - while security vendors like IBM can't even update libraries used in their flagship security products that subsequently allow for trivial exploitation. [..] For those unfamiliar with defensive security products, QRadar is the mastermind application that can sit on-premise or in the cloud via IBM's SaaS offering. Quite simply, it's IBM's Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) product - and is the heart of many enterprise's security software stack.

Initially, the team could not find a way to straightforwardly fingerprint the software’s version, nor another way to detect it without intrusive exploitation - thus we used a novelty technique: an algorithm that retrieves the web application’s static web content files and consolidates them to pin-point the software’s version.

∗∗∗ Automating Pikabot’s String Deobfuscation ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Pikabot is a malware loader that originally emerged in early 2023 with one of the prominent features being the code obfuscation that it leverages to evade detection and thwart technical analysis. Pikabot employed the obfuscation method to encrypt binary strings, including the address of the command-and-control (C2) servers. In this article, we briefly describe the obfuscation method used by Pikabot and we present an IDA plugin (with source code) that we developed to assist in our binary analysis.

New research has found that artificial intelligence (AI)-as-a-service providers such as Hugging Face are susceptible to two critical risks that could allow threat actors to escalate privileges, gain cross-tenant access to other customers models, and even take over the continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. [..] To mitigate the issue, it's recommended to enable IMDSv2 with Hop Limit so as to prevent pods from accessing the Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) and obtaining the role of a Node within the cluster.

∗∗∗ The Illusion of Privacy: Geolocation Risks in Modern Dating Apps ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Key takeaways Introduction Dating apps traditionally utilize location data, offering the opportunity to connect with people nearby, and enhancing the chances of real-life meetings. Some apps can also display the distance of the user to other users. This feature is quite useful for coordinating meetups, indicating whether a potential match is just a short distance away or a kilometer apart. However, openly sharing your distance with other users can create serious security issues. The risks become apparent when you consider the potential misuse by a curious individual armed with advanced knowledge of techniques like trilateration.

∗∗∗ The Mystery of ‘Jia Tan,’ the XZ Backdoor Mastermind ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
As scrutiny around Jia Tan has mounted since the revelation of the XZ Utils backdoor last Friday, researchers have noted that the persona has remarkably good operational security. [..] The Jia Tan persona has vanished since the backdoor was discovered [..] In fact, the only real footprints Jia Tan appears to have left behind were their contributions to the open source development community, where they were a prolific contributor: Disturbingly, Jia Tan’s first code change was to the “libarchive” compression library, another very widely used open source component. [..] In total, Jia Tan made 6,000 code changes to at least seven projects between 2021 and February 2024 [..] Security researchers agree, at least, that it’s unlikely that Jia Tan is a real person, or even one person working alone. Instead, it seems clear that the persona was the online embodiment of a new tactic from a new, well-organized organization—a tactic that nearly worked.

Sometimes, you’ve to quickly investigate a webserver logs for potential malicious activity. If you're lucky, logs are already indexed in real-time in a log management solution and you can automatically launch some hunting queries. If that's not the case, you can download all logs on a local system or a cloud instance and index them manually. But it's not always the easiest/fastest way due to the amount of data to process. These days, I'm always trying to process data as close as possible of their location/source and only download the investigation results.

∗∗∗ APT29 Uses WINELOADER to Target German Political Parties ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
In late February, APT29 used a new backdoor variant publicly tracked as WINELOADER to target German political parties with a CDU-themed lure. This is the first time we have seen this APT29 cluster target political parties, indicating a possible area of emerging operational focus beyond the typical targeting of diplomatic missions. Based on the SVR’s responsibility to collect political intelligence and this APT29 cluster’s historical targeting patterns, we judge this activity to present a broad threat to European and other Western political parties from across the political spectrum.

Given the potential complexities in the realm of 5G mobile network modems used in a multitude of devices (such as mobile devices and 5G-enabled environments such as Industrial Internet-of-Things and IP cameras), I chose to give the situation a bit more time before revisiting the 5Ghoul vulnerability.

∗∗∗ Why Your Firewall Will Kill You, (Tue, Mar 5th) ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
The last few years have been great for attackers exploiting basic web application vulnerabilities. Usually, home and small business products from companies like Linksys, D-Link, and Ubiquity are known to be favorite targets. But over the last couple of years, enterprise products from companies like Ivanti, Fortigate, Sonicwall, and Citrix (among others) have become easy to exploit targets. The high value of the networks protected by these "solutions" has made them favorites for ransomware attackers.

∗∗∗ Living off the land with native SSH and split tunnelling ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Lately I was involved in an assumed compromise project where stealth and simplicity was required, reducing the opportunity to use a sophisticated C2 infrastructure. We did note that the built-in Windows SSH client could make this simpler for us. [..] Windows native SSH can be a convenient attack path IF an organisation doesn’t have the ability to block and monitor the forwarded internal traffic.

Analysis of the traffic between networked devices has always been of interest since devices could even communicate with one another. As the complexity of networks grew, the more useful dedicated traffic analysis tools became. Major advancements have been made over the years with tools like Snort or Wireshark, but these tools are only useful when accurate information is provided to them. By only sending a subset of the information being passed across a network to monitoring tools, analysts will be provided with an incomplete picture of the state of their network.

SocGholish malware, otherwise known as “fake browser updates”, is one of the most common types of malware infections that we see on hacked websites.

The malware attempts to trick unsuspecting users into downloading what is actually a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) onto their computers, which is often the first stage in a ransomware infection. Late last week our incident response team identified a fresh wave of SocGholish (fake browser update) infections targeting WordPress websites.

UEFI threats have historically been limited in number and mostly implemented bynation state actors as stealthy persistence. However, the recent proliferationof Black Lotus on the dark web, Trickbot enumeration module (late 2022), andGlupteba (November 2023) indicates that this historical trend may be changing. With this context, it is becoming important for security practitioners to understand visibility and collection capabilities for UEFI threats. This post covers some of these areas and presents several recent Velociraptor artifacts that can be used in the field.

Avast discovered an in-the-wild admin-to-kernel exploit for a previously unknown zero-day vulnerability in the appid.sys AppLocker driver. Thanks to Avast’s prompt report, Microsoft addressed this vulnerability as CVE-2024-21338 in the February Patch Tuesday update. The exploitation activity was orchestrated by the notorious Lazarus Group, with the end goal of establishing a kernel read/write primitive. This primitive enabled Lazarus to perform direct kernel object manipulation in an updated version of their data-only FudModule rootkit, a previous version of which was analyzed by ESET and AhnLab.
