∗∗∗ Powershell ConstrainedLanguage Mode ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Gastbeitrag vom milCERT - Philipp Thaller und Stefan Bachmair - Bei der Analyse von aktueller Malware stellte sich heraus dass viele der aktuellen Exemplare (inkl. Emotet ) auf die PowerShell angewiesen sind um ihr schadhaftes Potential entfalten zu können. Schränkt man die PowerShell entsprechend ein, ist eine Ausführung des eigentlichen Schadcodes oft gar nicht möglich.

∗∗∗ RdpThief: Extracting Clear-text Credentials from Remote Desktop Clients ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
In this blogpost I will describe the process I followed to write a tool that will extract clear-text credentials from the Microsoft RDP client using API hooking. Using this approach, if you are already operating under the privileges of the compromised user (e.g. as a result of a phish) and the user has an RDP session open, you are able to extract the clear-text credentials without privilege escalation.
