∗∗∗ Detecting Suspicious API Usage with YARA Rules, (Fri, Apr 7th) ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
YARA is a beautiful tool for malware researchers and incident responders. No need to present it again. It became a standard tool to add to your arsenal. While teaching FOR610 (Malware Analysis & Reverse Engineering), a student asked me how to detect specific API calls with dangerous parameters during the triage phase. This phase will help you quickly assess the malware sample and help you decide how to perform the following steps.

---------------------------------------------
Our team at Sucuri has been tracking a massive WordPress infection campaign since 2017 — but up until recently never bothered to give it a proper name. Typically, we refer to it as an ongoing long lasting massive WordPress infection campaign that leverages all known and recently discovered theme and plugin vulnerabilities.

∗∗∗ Pwning Pixel 6 with a leftover patch ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
In this post, I’ll look at a security-related change in version r40p0 of the Arm Mali driver that was AWOL in the January update of the Pixel bulletin, where other patches from r40p0 was applied, and how these two lines of changes can be exploited to gain arbitrary kernel code execution and root from a malicious app. This highlights how treacherous it can be when backporting security changes.

∗∗∗ Umfrage: Softwarebedingte Schwachstellen sind das größte Sicherheitsproblem ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Hacker setzen vermehrt auf bekannte Sicherheitslücken. Ransomware ist der Umfrage zufolge nur die viertgrößte Bedrohung. Ein weiteres Problem: viele Unternehmen weisen Mitarbeiter an, meldepflichtige Vorfälle zu verschweigen.
