*** Smuggler - An interactive 802.11 wireless shell without the need for authentication or association *** --------------------------------------------- I've always been fascinated by wireless communications. The ability to launch seemingly invisible packets of information up into the air without even the need to consider aerodynamics itself seems like some kind of magic. In my quest to become a wireless wizard I started looking at the 802.11 wireless protocol to find out a little more about it. I had always noticed when looking at wireless management frames in various packet dumps that a wealth of additional (and somewhat optional)... --------------------------------------------- http://blog.spiderlabs.com/2014/11/smuggler-an-interactive-80211-wireless-sh...

*** Whois someone else?, (Tue, Nov 4th) *** --------------------------------------------- A couple of weeks ago, I already covered the situation where a cloud IP address gets re-assigned, and the new owner still sees some of your traffic. Recently, one of our clients had the opposite problem: They had changed their Internet provider, and had held on to the old address range for a decent decay time. They even confirmed with a week-long packet capture that there was no afterglow on the link, and then dismantled the setup. Until last week, when they got an annoyed rant into their... --------------------------------------------- https://isc.sans.edu/diary.html?storyid=18911&rss

*** Exploiting CVE-2014-4113 on Windows 8.1 *** --------------------------------------------- On the 14th of October 2014 both CrowdStrike1 and FireEye2 published a blog post describing a new zero-day privilege escalation vulnerability on Windows. The CrowdStrike article explains that this new vulnerability was identified in the process of tracking a supposedly highly advanced adversary group named HURRICANE PANDA and has been actively exploited in the wild for at least five month. ... So I was curious if and how the vulnerability might be exploitable on the most current version of... --------------------------------------------- http://dl.packetstormsecurity.net/papers/attack/CVE-2014-4113.pdf
