*** Highlights from the 2016 HPE Annual Cyber Threat Report, (Mon, Apr 25th) *** --------------------------------------------- HP released their annual report for 2016 that covers a broad range of information (96 pages) in various sectors and industries. The report is divided in 7 themes, those that appear the most interesting to me are Theme #5: The industry didnt learn anything about patching in 2015 and Theme #7: The monetization of malware. Theme #5 According to this report, the bug that was the most exploited in 2014 was still the most exploited last year which is now over five years old.

*** Kritische Lücken: HP Data Protector verzichtet auf Authentifikation *** --------------------------------------------- Angreifer können den HP Data Protector über verschiedene Schwachstellen in den Mangel nehmen und Code auf Computer schieben.

*** Snap: Ubuntus neue Pakete sind auf dem Desktop nicht sicherer *** --------------------------------------------- Die Ubuntu-Macher Canonical behaupten, mit dem neuen Paketformat Snap werden installierte Apps sicherer. Für Desktop-Anwender stimmt das allerdings nicht. --------------------------------------------- http://heise.de/-3183128
*** RDP Replay Code Release *** --------------------------------------------- We took a more in depth look to see what information could be extracted from a PCAP of this [RDP] activity, and this led to a tool being created to replay the RDP session as the attacker would have seen it. We have made this tool available after being asked by a number of our blog readers. This tool requires the private key for decrypting, which can usually be recovered with cooperation from the client. --------------------------------------------- http://www.contextis.com/resources/blog/rdp-replay-code-release/

*** A Newer Variant of RawPOS in Depth *** --------------------------------------------- RawPOS - A History RawPOS (also sometimes referred to as Rdasrv from the original service install name) is a Windows based malware family that targets payment card data. It has been around at least since 2011, if not much earlier. Despite it being very well known and the functions it performs easy to understand, RawPOS continues to prove extremely effective in perpetuating long-term and devastating card breaches to this day. Similar to its cousin, BlackPOS, this malware targets industries... --------------------------------------------- https://www.alienvault.com/blogs/security-essentials/a-newer-variant-of-rawp...
*** Empty DDoS Threats: Meet the Armada Collective *** --------------------------------------------- [...] Our conclusion was a bit of a surprise: weve been unable to find a single incident where the current incarnation of the Armada Collective has actually launched a DDoS attack. In fact, because the extortion emails reuse Bitcoin addresses, theres no way the Armada Collective can tell who has paid and who has not. In spite of that, the cybercrooks have collected hundreds of thousands of dollars in extortion payments.

*** Angriff auf Zentralbank: Billigrouter und Malware führen zu Millionenverlust *** --------------------------------------------- Man sollte meinen, dass die Zentralbank eines Landes über eine Firewall verfügt. In Bangladesch war das offenbar nicht der Fall. So konnten Angreifer mit spezialisierter Malware fast 1 Milliarde US-Dollar überweisen - und scheiterten dann an einem Fehler. --------------------------------------------- http://www.golem.de/news/angriff-auf-zentralbank-billigrouter-und-malware-fu...

*** Exploit kit targets Android devices, delivers ransomware *** --------------------------------------------- Ransomware hitting mobile devices is not nearly as widespread as that which targets computers, but Blue Coat researchers have discovered something even less unusual: mobile ransomware delivered via exploit kit. The ransomware in question calls itself Cyber.Police (the researchers have dubbed it Dogspectus), and does not encrypt users' files, just blocks the infected Android device. It purports to be part of an action by the (nonexistent) "American national security agency"... --------------------------------------------- https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2016/04/25/exploit-kit-targets-android-devic...
