*** Distributed Vulnerability Search - Told via Access Logs *** --------------------------------------------- Sometimes just a few lines of access logs can tell a whole story: Many ongoing attacks against WordPress and Joomla sites use a collection of known vulnerabilities in many different plugins, themes and components.

*** Samsung S6 calls open to man-in-the-middle base station snooping *** --------------------------------------------- Their cheap man-in-the-middle attack requires an OpenBTS base station to be established and located near target handsets. Handsets will automatically connect to the bogus station. The malicious base station then pushes firmware to the phones baseband processor (the chip that handles voice calls, and which isnt directly accessible to end users). ... The Register would speculate that since the Qualcomm silicon in question isnt unique to Samsung kit, other researchers are probably setting to work... --------------------------------------------- http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/11/12/mobile_pwn2own1/

*** EMV Protocol Fuzzer *** --------------------------------------------- The world-wide introduction of the Europay, MasterCard and Visa standard (EMV), to facilitate communication between smartcards and EMV-enabled devices, such as point-of-sale (POS) terminals and automatic teller machines (ATMs), has altered the security landscape of the daily markets.

*** Got a time machine? Good, you can brute-force 2FA *** --------------------------------------------- Security researcher Gabor Szathmari says the problem is that if your 2FA tokens depend on the network time protocol (NTP), its too easy for a sysadmin to put together an attackable implementation. As he explains in two posts.., if an attacker can trick NTP, they can mount a brute-force attack against the security tokens produced by Google Authenticator (the example in the POC) and a bunch of other Time-based One-time Password Algorithm-based (TOTP) 2FA mechanisms. --------------------------------------------- http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/11/12/got_a_time_machine_good_you_can_brut...
