Es war aber kein Cyberangriff, sondern das gleichzeitige Auftreten zweier Fehler – unabhängig voneinander, die zum Ausfall von Funktionen führte.

Few weeks ago, I was asked by a customer to take a look at a phishing message which contained a link that one of their employees clicked on.

Luckily, it was only a run-of-the-mill phishing kit login page, nevertheless, the e-mail message itself turned out to be somewhat more interesting, since although it didn’t look like anything special, it did make it to the recipient’s inbox, instead of the e-mail quarantine where it should have ended up.

∗∗∗ Uncoordinated Vulnerability Disclosure: The Continuing Issues with CVD ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
On patch Tuesday last week, Microsoft released an update for CVE-2024-38112, which they said was being exploited in the wild. We at the Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) agree with them because that’s what we told them back in May when we detected this exploit in the wild and reported it to Microsoft. However, you may notice that no one from Trend or ZDI was acknowledged by Microsoft. This case has become a microcosm of the problems with coordinated vulnerability disclosure (CVD) as vendors push for coordinated disclosure from researchers but rarely practice any coordination regarding the fix. This lack of transparency from vendors often leaves researchers who practice CVD with more questions than answers.

∗∗∗ ClickFix Deception: A Social Engineering Tactic to Deploy Malware ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
The HTML file masquerades as a Word document, displaying an error prompt to deceive users. [..] In a nutshell, clicking on the “How to fix” button triggers the execution of JavaScript code that copies the PowerShell script directly onto the clipboard. [..] Once the script is pasted and executed in the PowerShell terminal, it allows the malware to infiltrate the victim’s system, potentially leading to data theft, system compromise, or further propagation of the malware.

---------------------------------------------
The team behind Knot Resolver, the scalable caching DNS resolver, is hard at work developing a complex solution for protecting DNS servers and other participants on the Internet alike against denial-of-service attacks. This effort is a part of the ongoing DNS4EU project, co-funded by the European Union1, which we are a proud part of. [..] As usual with projects from CZ.NIC, all of this code is also free and open source under the GPL license, so everyone is free to study and adapt it for their own exciting purposes.

∗∗∗ 16-bit Hash Collisions in .xls Spreadsheets, (Sat, Jul 13th) ∗∗∗

Since the hashing algorithm used for the protection of .xls files produces a 16-bit integer with its highest bit set, there are 32768 (0x8000) possible hash values (called verifier), and thus ample chance to generate hash collisions. I generated such a list, and included it in an update of my oledump plugin plugin_biff.py.
