ATTACK OTHER - 2024 2023 2022 2021 2020 Other
24.12.19 | 2FA | Pokud vás dokáže útočník využívající útok MITM (Man-In-The-Middle, člověk uprostřed) podvést, abyste navštívili jeho podvrženou stránku, a vyzve vás k zadání vašich přihlašovacích údajů 2FA, je to v podstatě konec. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Podobně jako u útoků MITM, pokud dokáže hacker dostat svůj škodlivý software do vašeho počítače, může upravit software, který se používá ve vašem procesu 2FA, a to buď k odcizení tajemství chráněných tokenem 2FA, nebo k použití již schválené autentizace pro přístup k něčemu v zákulisí. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Specializovaný útok typu „člověk v koncovém bodu“ může mít podobu kompromitace softwaru souvisejícího se zařízením 2FA. Například k použití čipové karty v zařízení je potřebný software pro čipové karty, který čipovou kartu obsluhuje a rozumí jí. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Mnoho hardwarových a softwarových tokenů 2FA generuje jednorázový kód, který je pro daného uživatele a zařízení jedinečný. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Mnoho služeb včetně populárních webových stránek, které umožňují používat 2FA, ji nevyžadují, což ale samotný účel zavedení 2FA sabotuje. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Existuje malé špinavé tajemství, které před vámi chtějí dodavatelé čipových karet tajit – každé zařízení/software 2FA jsou svázané s identitou uživatele/zařízení. Tato identita musí být v rámci autentizačního systému jedinečná. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Vaše atributy biometrické totožnosti (např. otisky prstů nebo sken sítnice) lze ukrást a opakovaně používat. Přitom je velmi těžké bránit útočníkovi, aby je používal. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Dnes jsou populární sdílená integrovaná autentizační schémata, jako je například oAuth, která umožňují uživateli přihlásit se jednou a znovu použít toto pověření (často v pozadí) k přihlášení k dalším službám a webovým stránkám. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Jak stále více webových stránek umožňuje nebo vyžaduje 2FA, hackeři se naučili, jak to vyřešit pomocí sociálního inženýrství. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Ztráta 2FA tokenů a jejich získání hackery není nic nového. Pokud web nebo služba používající přihlášení 2FA nepoužívá kontrolu špatných pokusů o přihlášení, mohou se útočníci pokoušet uhádnout PIN kód pro 2FA opakovaným zkoušením, dokud se netrefí. | ||
24.12.19 | 2FA | Je realističtější předpokládat, že je více webů a softwaru s přihlašováním 2FA, které obsahují chyby umožňující obejít 2FA, než webů, jež jsou zcela bezpečné. Zde je příklad (www.zdnet.com/article/uber-security-flaw-two-factor-login-bypass/), ale existují stovky dalších příkladů implementací 2FA s chybami. | ||
11.12.19 | CPU | Modern processors are being pushed to perform faster than ever before - and with this comes increases in heat and power consumption. To manage this, many chip manufacturers allow frequency and voltage to be adjusted as and when needed. But more than that, they offer the user the opportunity to modify the frequency and voltage through priviledged software interfaces. | ||
20.11.19 | CPU | iTLB multihit is an erratum where some processors may incur a machine check error, possibly resulting in an unrecoverable CPU lockup, when an instruction fetch hits multiple entries in the instruction TLB. This can occur when the page size is changed along with either the physical address or cache type. A malicious guest running on a virtualized system can exploit this erratum to perform a denial of service attack. | ||
20.11.19 | CPU | Starting with the second-generation Intel® Core™ Processors and Intel® Xeon® E3-1200 Series Processors (formerly codenamed Sandy Bridge) and later processor families, the Intel® microarchitecture introduces a microarchitectural structure called the Decoded ICache (also called the Decoded Streaming Buffer or DSB). | ||
13.11.19 | CPU | Trusted Platform Module (TPM) serves as a root of trust for the operating system. TPM is supposed to protect our security keys from malicious adversaries like malware and rootkits. | ||
13.11.19 | CPU | A new speculative vulnerability called ZombieLoad 2, or TSX Asynchronous Abort, has been disclosed today that targets the Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX) feature in Intel processors. | ||
13.11.19 | CPU | The RIDL and Fallout speculative execution attacks allow attackers to leak private data across arbitrary security boundaries on a victim system, for instance compromising data held in the cloud or leaking your data to malicious websites. | ||
25.10.19 | DDoS Attack | Cache-Poisoned Denial-of-Service (CPDoS) is a new class of web cache poisoning attacks aimed at disabling web resources and websites. | ||
12.9.19 | SIM Attack | Following extensive research, AdaptiveMobile Security has uncovered a new and previously undetected vulnerability. This vulnerability is currently being exploited and is being used for targeted surveillance of mobile phone users. | ||
11.9.19 | CPU | NetCAT shows that network-based cache side-channel attacks are a realistic threat. Cache attacks have been traditionally used to leak sensitive data on a local setting (e.g., from an attacker-controlled virtual machine to a victim virtual machine that share the CPU cache on a cloud platform). | ||
15.8.19 | Bluetooth |
A vulnerability tracked as CVE-2019-9506 and referred as Key Negotiation of Bluetooth (KNOB) attack could allow attackers to spy on encrypted connections. | ||
7.8.19 | CPU | The SWAPGS Attack, as they call it, circumvents the protective measures that have been put in-place in response to earlier attacks such as Spectre and Meltdown. Still, there is plenty of good news: Microsoft has already released Windows patches for the flaw that makes the attack possible and, even though feasible, the researchers don’t expect the attack to be exploited for widespread, non-targeted attacks. | ||
16.7.19 | App Attack | Below, I will describe two ‘app-in-the-middle’ attacks, where a malicious app is installed in the personal profile and acts as an agent to steal information from (and even control) the Work profile and hand it off to an attacker’s Command & Control server. | ||
12.6.19 | RAM Attack | The Rowhammer bug is a reliability issue in DRAM cells that can enable an unprivileged adversary to flip the values of bits in neighboring rows on the memory module. Previous work has exploited this for various types of fault attacks across security boundaries, where the attacker flips inaccessible bits, often resulting in privilege escalation. It is widely assumed however, that bit flips within the adversary’s own private memory have no security implications, as the attacker can already modify its private memory via regular write operations. | ||
15.5.19 | CPU Attack | After Meltdown, Spectre, and Foreshadow, we discovered more critical vulnerabilities in modern processors. The ZombieLoad attack allows stealing sensitive data and keys while the computer accesses them. | ||
14.5.19 | CPU Attack | New attacks extract data from CPU buffers. Two attacks dubbed RIDL and Falloutexploit a set of four vulnerabilities collectively known as Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) vulnerabilities - a name given by Intel. The flaws affect Intel CPUs released since 2008, the researchers say. | ||
14.5.19 | CPU Attack | Researchers from VUSec - the Systems and Network Security Group at Vrije University in Amsterdam, and from the Helmholtz Center for Information Security (CISPA) have developed the RIDL (short for Rogue In-Flight Data Load) attack. | ||
12.4.19 | WPA 3 Attack | In this section we show how to perform password partition attacks, using the information obtained from our timing and cache attacks. This enables an adversary to recover the password of a target. 8.1 Partitioning a Dictionary In the first attack variant, our goal is to recover the password from a given dictionary. We accomplish this by repeatedly partitioning the dictionary into correct and incorrect password candidates. Practically, this is implemented by removing incorrect passwords from the dictionary during each partitioning step. | ||
12.4.19 | WPA 3 Attack | In this section we demonstrate that implementations of the hashto-curve algorithm of SAE may be vulnerable to cache-based sidechannel attacks. Similar to the timing attack against MODP groups, this will later on enable an adversary to recover a target’s password. 7.1 Background and Attack Goal The goal of our attack is to learn if the Quadratic Residue (QR) test in the first iteration of the hash-to-curve algorithm succeeded or not. | ||
12.4.19 | WPA 3 Attack | In this section we empirically show that the hash-to-group method that converts a password into a MODP element is vulnerable to timing attacks. The obtained info will later on be used in password partitioning attacks, allowing one to recover the victim’s password. 6.1 Background Up to this point, we assumed the SAE handshake is executed using elliptic curves. | ||
12.4.19 | WPA 3 Attack | To mitigate our downgrade to dictionary attack, a client should remember if a network supports WPA3-SAE. That is, after successfully connecting using SAE, the client should store that the network supports SAE. From this point onward, the client must never connect to this network using a weaker handshake. | ||
12.4.19 | WPA 3 Attack | The SAE handshake can be run using different elliptic curve or multiplicative groups mod p (i.e. ECP or MODP groups). The “Group Description” of gives an overview of supported groups. Additionally, the 802.11 standard allows station to prioritize groups in a user-configurable order | ||
12.4.19 | WPA 3 Attack | Our first attack is against WPA3-SAE transition mode. Recall from Section 2.2 that in this mode the AP is configured to accept connections using both WPA3-SAE and WPA2. This provides backward compatibility with older clients. Moreover, WPA2’s 4-way handshake detects downgrade attacks, meaning an attacker cannot trick a WPA3-capable client into successfully establishing a connection using WPA2. | ||
9.4.19 | ICS Attack | The increase in the demand for innovative software has effectively reshaped the software development industry itself. Today, speed and agility are paramount and development teams are pushed to deliver highly advanced applications in record time — which means that writing every single line of code from the ground up is often not a sustainable practice. As the NIST puts it, “This ecosystem has evolved to provide a set of highly refined, cost-effective, reusable ICT solutions.” | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | Every commercial eNB has a maximum capacity of active user connections based on their hardware and software specifications. The purpose of the BTS resource depletion attack is to deplete this capacity of the active RRC Connections, thereby preventing other users from connecting to the target eNB. | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | Unlike the aforementioned attack that denies multiple users in an eNB, the Blind DoS attack denies a targeted UE by establishing RRC Connections spoofed as the victim UE. 1) Attack model: The attacker performs the attack within the area covered by the victim’s serving eNB. The attacker also knows the victim’s S-TMSI that can be obtained in three ways | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | During our experiments, we discovered that operational MMEs have several implementation flaws that cause them to unnecessarily de-register the victim UE without notification. The detailed attack scenario is as below. 1) Adversary model: An adversary should be able to send malicious NAS messages to the MME in which the victim UE is registered. Typically, an MME manages a number of eNBs which are distributed throughout large geographical regions. | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | 1) Adversary model: In this scenario, the adversary sends an SMS message to victim UE1 by spoofing the message sender using the phone number of victim UE2. To this end, the adversary knows the S-TMSI of UE2 to spoof the sender. The phone number of UE1, to which the actual SMS message is sent, is also known. In addition, we assume that the target LTE network provides the SMS through the NAS layer. 2) Attack procedure: ➀ The adversary starts by establishing a spoofed RRC Connection using the S-TMSI of UE2 | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | 1) Adversary model: The adversary is located sufficiently close to the victim UE to trigger handover from an existing eNB to the adversary’s rogue LTE network. To this end, the rogue LTE network transmits an LTE signal with higher transmission power than commercial eNBs. Additionally, the adversary would have to know the list of Tracking Areas (TAs) to masquerade the rogue LTE network as a commercial one. A valid TA Code (TAC) can easily be captured in two ways | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | In the case of a BTS resource depletion attack, it is impossible for an eNB to distinguish the adversary’s RRC Connection requests from benign RRC connection requests. A possible mitigation to this attack could be to reduce the inactivity timer value to allow an RRC Connection that is unresponsive to the Authentication request to expire. | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | As discussed in Section V, both the Remote de-register attack and SMS phishing attack are rooted from incorrect implementation of the operational MMEs. Thus, these MMEs should be carefully implemented by strictly following the 3GPP standard. The AKA bypass attack is also rooted in the UE handling the mandatory security procedure incorrectly. Therefore, the UE should not proceed with any control plane procedures before completing the mandatory security procedure successfully. | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | Many previous studies, employed a rogue BTS in a 2G/3G network. However, the Man in the Middle (MitM) attack in LTE networks received less attention . Rupprecht et al. showed that an LTE dongle could be used for eavesdropping and tampering if the dongle incorrectly allows null integrity to both the control and data plane. Hussain et al. demonstrated an Authentication relay attack to eavesdrop a victim UE’s data communication if the carrier uses null encryption to the data plane. | ||
29.3.19 | LTE Attack | Previous studies introduced DoS attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in LTE control plane procedures. Shaik et al. presented DoS attacks using plain reject messages (NAS TAU reject, Service reject and Attach reject). Raza et al. demonstrated two types of DoS attacks that were able to detach a user from the network: the first uses a plain NAS Detach request message and the other uses Paging with the user’s IMSI. Both studies showed that certain unprotected plain messages may cause denial of service to users. | ||
9.3.19 | Password | Password Spray Attack is quite the opposite of Brute Force Attack. In Brute Force attacks, hackers choose a vulnerable ID and enter passwords one after another hoping some password might let them in. Basically, Brute Force is many passwords applied to just one ID. | ||
4.3.19 | Hardware | Direct Memory Access (DMA) attacks have been known for many years: DMA-enabled I/O peripherals have complete access to the state of a computer and can fully compromise it including reading and writing all of system memory. With the popularity of Thunderbolt 3 over USB Type-C and smart internal devices, opportunities for these attacks to be performed casually with only seconds of physical access to a computer have greatly broadened. In response, commodity hardware and operatingsystem (OS) vendors have incorporated support for Input-Ouptut Memory Management Units (IOMMUs), which impose memory protection on DMA, and are widely believed to protect against DMA attacks. | ||
25.2.19 | Mobil/GSM | Short for "TRacking via Paging mEssage DistributiOn," TorPEDO is the most concerning attack that leverages paging protocol, allowing remote attackers to verify a victim device’s location, inject fabricated paging messages, and mount denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. | ||
25.2.19 | Mobil/GSM | The PIERCER (Persistent Information ExposuRe by the CorE netwoRk) attack, which enables an attacker with the knowledge of the victim’s phone number, a sniffer, and a fake base station in the victim’s geographical cell to associate the victim device’s IMSI with its phone number. | ||
25.2.19 | Mobil/GSM | In addition, the ToRPEDO attack also opens a door for two other new attacks—the PIERCER and IMSI-Cracking attacks, leading to the full recovery of the victim device's persistent identity (i.e., IMSI).Exist due to a design flaw, PIERCER (Persistent Information ExposuRe by the CorE netwoRk) attack enables an attacker to associate the victim device's unique IMSI with its phone number. | ||
14.1.19 | Protocol | Similar to ARP spoofing and all other spoofing attacks. In here attacker pretend to be a valid DHCP server. What attacker does is he reply for the hosts DHCP request before real DHCP server does. In the reply attacker defines a IP address to the host and false default gateway(could be attacker’s IP address). | ||
14.1.19 | Protocol | MAC address tables or CAM(Content Access Memory) tables are used on switches to track where to send traffic it received. When switch receives a frame it look its cam table for destination mac address. If mac address can be find in cam table packet will forward to the port(interface) assigned to that mac address. | ||
14.1.19 | Cloud | These types of threats occur when customers move one of their workloads into a public cloud environment, such as Amazon Web Services or Microsoft Azure, and use Direct Connect (or any other VPN tunnel) to move between the public cloud into the private cloud. An attacker who breaches one of the environments can then move laterally, under the radar of security tools. | ||
14.1.19 | Cloud | Malware injection attacks are done to take control of a user’s information in the cloud. For this purpose, hackers add an infected service implementation module to a SaaS or PaaS solution or a virtual machine instance to an IaaS solution. If the cloud system is successfully deceived, it will redirect the cloud user’s requests to the hacker’s module or instance, initiating the execution of malicious code. | ||
14.1.19 | Cloud | We’ve discussed some of the most common cloud computing attack vectors malicious actors use to achieve their goals. | ||
14.1.19 | Cloud | Insider attacks remain one of the top threats for various organizations, even if you don’t use cloud infrastructure. While most employees are trustworthy, it’s always a good idea to have a clear understanding of who has access to certain files and documents. | ||
13.1.19 | Web | Unicode characters can look the same to the naked eye but actually, have a different web address. Some letters in the Roman alphabet, used by the majority of modern languages, are the same shape as letters in Greek, Cyrillic, and other alphabets, so it’s easy for an attacker to launch a domain name that replaces some ASCII characters with Unicode characters. | ||
4.12.18 | Web | CORS or Cross -Origin Resource Sharing use in modern browsers to check the permission of remote access to web resources and services. | ||
22.10.18 | Authentication | We’ve recently noticed a trend with a lot of New Zealand sites wanting to implement Single Sign-On (SSO) to combat the proliferation of passwords, including many government services. The most prevalent standard for doing this, providing interoperability between many vendors’ frameworks and multiple languages, is SAML 2.0. | ||
22.10.18 | Web | This post will describe some findings, problems and inisghts regarding XML External Entity Attacks (XXEA) that we gathered during a large-scale security analysis of several SAML interfaces. | ||
22.10.18 | Authentication | In this blog I’ll share some pointers that can be used when testing Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions that utilize SAML. The centralized nature of SSO provides a range of security benefits, but also makes SSO a high-profile target to attackers. The majority of SSO implementations I have seen in the past year pass SAML messages as part of the authentication process. | ||
21.10.18 | Mobil/GSM | An SS7 attack is an exploit that takes advantage of a weakness in the design of SS7 (Signalling System 7) to enable data theft, eavesdropping, text interception and location tracking.While the SS7 network is fundamental to cellphones and its operators, the security of the design relied entirely on trust. The SS7 network operators counted on one another to play by the rules. Now, with operators opening the SS7 network to offer third-party access as a commercial offering, vulnerabilities are being exposed and attacked. | ||
15.10.18 | Phishing | There are only a handful of rules that you need to know to counter any phishing attack that you may be exposed to on the Internet, right? Check the web address and make sure it is the right one. Also, make sure you don't follow any links on pages or in messages that you don't trust 100%. While that is sound advise, and will help you identify the bulk of phishing attacks, Chinese security researcher Xudong Zheng just demonstrated that things may not always be that easy. | ||
4.10.18 |
Hardware/ | In cryptography, a cold boot attack (or to a lesser extent, a platform reset attack) is a type of side channel attack in which an attacker with physical access to a computer is able to retrieve encryption keys from a running operating system after using a cold reboot to restart the machine.The attack relies on the data remanence property of DRAM and SRAM to retrieve memory contents that remain readable in the seconds to minutes after power has been removed. | ||
28.9.18 | Communication | o, somebody pointed this out to me the other day: http://www.cpni.gov.uk/Docs/Vulnerability_Advisory_SSH.txt which talks about the probability of recovering some plain text from an ssh session. Having seen nothing at all from OpenSSH about this, my first reaction was "OH NO!" because it looked like they had released information without patches or a fix being available, then I looked a little closer at what was actually being talked about here. | ||
27.9.18 | Web | When a customer of an e-commerce site clicks “submit” or its equivalent after entering their details into a website’s payment form, malicious JavaScript code that has been injected there by the cyber criminals collects all entered information, such as payment card details and the user’s name and address. This information is then sent to the attacker’s servers. Attackers can then use this information to perform payment card fraud or sell these details to other criminals on the dark web. | ||
21.8.18 | Android | Recently, our researchers came across a shortcoming in the design of Android’s use of storage resources. Careless use of External Storage by applications may open the door to an attack resulting in any number of undesired outcomes, such as silent installation of unrequested, potentially malicious, apps to the user’s phone, denial of service for legitimate apps, and even cause applications to crash, opening the door to possible code injection that would then run in the privileged context of the attacked application. | ||
21.8.18 | Exploit | Fax, the brilliant technology that lifted mankind out the dark ages of mail delivery when only the postal service and carrier pigeons were used to deliver a physical message from a sender to a receiver. Technology wise, however, that was a long time ago. Today we are light years away from those dark days. In its place we have email, chat messengers, mobile communication channels, web-services, satellites using quantum messaging and more. | ||
15.8.18 | CPU | TLBleed is a new side channel attack that has been proven to work on Intel CPU’s with Hyperthreading (generally Simultaneous Multi-threading, or SMT, or HT on Intel) enabled. It relies on concurrent access to the TLB, and it being shared between threads. We find that the L1dtlb and the STLB (L2 TLB) is shared between threads on Intel CPU cores. | ||
15.8.18 | CPU | Foreshadow is a vulnerability that affects modern microprocessors that was first discovered by two independent teams of researchers in January 18, but was first disclosed to the public on 14 August 18.The vulnerability is a speculative execution attack on Intel processors that may result in the loss of sensitive information stored in personal computers, or third party clouds.There are two versions: the first version (original/Foreshadow) (CVE-18-3615) targets data from SGX enclaves; and the second version (next-generation/Foreshadow-NG) (CVE-18-3620 and CVE-18-3646) targets Virtual Machines (VMs), hypervisors (VMM), operating system (OS) kernel memory, and System Management Mode (SMM) memory | ||
15.8.18 | CPU | Meltdown is a hardware vulnerability affecting Intel x86 microprocessors, IBM POWER processors, and some ARM-based microprocessors. It allows a rogue process to read all memory, even when it is not authorized to do so. | ||
15.8.18 | CPU | Spectre is a vulnerability that affects modern microprocessors that perform branch prediction.On most processors, the speculative execution resulting from a branch misprediction may leave observable side effects that may reveal private data to attackers. For example, if the pattern of memory accesses performed by such speculative execution depends on private data, the resulting state of the data cache constitutes a side channel through which an attacker may be able to extract information about the private data using a timing attack. | ||
27.6.18 | Cryptographic | TLBleed is a cryptographic side-channel attack that uses machine learning to exploit a timing side-channel via the translation look-aside buffer (TLB) on modern microprocessors that use simultaneous multithreading. | ||
18.5.18 | DoS | The BlackNurse attack is a form of denial of service attack based on ICMP flooding. The attack is special because a modest bandwidth of 20Mbit/s can be effective for disrupting a victim's network.The attack consists of sending Destination Unreachable packets to a destination. This works because these packets caused the destination to consume resources at a relatively high rate relative to the traffic. | ||
18.5.18 | Researchers finally revealed the Historical Email encryption based EFAIL attacks that can be exploited this brand new serious vulnerability that affected PGP & S/MIME end-to-end encryption technologies. Researchers already released an earlier warning about this highly critical security flaw in PGP & S/MIME keys and they advised to immediately disable and/or uninstall tools that automatically decrypt PGP-encrypted email. | |||
18.5.18 | Hardware | A fundamental assumption in software security is that memory contents do not change unless there is a legitimate deliberate modification. Classical fault attacks show that this assumption does not hold if the attacker has physical access. | ||
4.5.18 | Android | The researchers dubbed their attack “GLitch,” as it leverages WebGL, a JavaScript API for rendering interactive graphics in web browsers, to determine the physical memory layout of the DRAM memory before starting the targeted Rowhammer attack. | ||
21.4.18 | VoIP | This is a flood technique focused on SIP application protocol which involves illegitimate call requests. The idea here is to flood the Session Boarder Control (SBC) and / or SIP / VOIP PBX with too many requests to handle and thus making the service unavailable. | ||
21.4.18 | HTTP | In an HTTP Fragmentation Attack, an attacker establishes a valid connection with a server, and then proceeds to send all of his or her HTTP traffic to the server in small fragments as slowly as possible. | ||
21.4.18 | LAN Attack | Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is a connectionless protocol used for IP operations, diagnostics, and errors. An ICMP Flood attack - the sending of an abnormally large number of ICMP packets of any type (especially network latency testing "ping" packets) - can overwhelm a target server that attempts to process every incoming ICMP request, and this can result in a denial-of-service condition for the target server. | ||
21.4.18 | HTTP | An HTTP flood is a HTTP DDoS attack method used by hackers to attack web servers and applications. It consists of seemingly legitimate session-based sets of HTTP GET or POST requests sent to a target web server. These requests are specifically designed to consume a significant amount of the server's resources, and therefore can result in a denial-of-service condition (without necessarily requiring a high rate of network traffic). | ||
20.4.18 | Hardware | PowerHammer: Exfiltrating Data from Air-Gapped Computers through Power Lines | ||
19.4.18 | iOS | Symantec researchers have found a loophole in how iPhone users pair devices with Mac workstations and laptops. They say attackers can exploit this flaw —which they named Trustjacking— to take over devices without the phone owner's knowledge. | ||
13.4.18 | TCP/IP | The BGP attack is a DDoS attack where attackers take control of a large amount of fast routers to overwhelm their victim. The idea behind it is to take advantage of the ability of routers to exchange router tables. The attackers let the controlled routers know that their target is a router asking for a routing table's exchange, which results in the sending of a big amount of incoming packets to the victim, therefore overwhelming it. | ||
13.4.18 | Cookies | Cookie poisoning is the act of manipulating or forging a cookie (a small piece of data created and stored in a user's browser that keeps track of important information regarding his or her session information for a particular site) for the purpose of bypassing security measures or sending false information to a server. An attacker using cookie poisoning can gain unauthorized access to a user's account on the particular site the cookie was created for, or potentially tricking a server into accepting a new version of the original intercepted cookie with modified values. | ||
13.4.18 | DoS | Distributed Reflection Denial of Service attack. An attack is reflective when the attacker makes use of a potentially legitimate third party to send his or her attack traffic, ultimately hiding his or her own identity. | ||
13.4.18 | TCP/IP | A Fragmented ACK attack is a variation of the ACK & PSH-ACK Flood that uses 1500-byte packets with the goal of hogging the target network’s bandwidth with only a moderate packet rate. If application level filters were applied on network equipment (routers and such), it will have to reassemble the packets, consuming much of its resources. If no filters were applied, these attack packets will be able to pass through many network security devices such as routers, ACLs, and firewalls undetected. These fragmented packets usually contain junk data, as the goal of the attacker is to simply consume all of the target network’s bandwidth. | ||
13.4.18 | DDoS | #RefRef is a Perl-based DoS attack tool developed by the Hacktivist group ‘Anonymous’ that uses a vulnerability in MySQL to perform an SQL injection involving the MySQL BENCHMARK() function. #RefRef abuses the BENCHMARK () function which allows for the repeated execution of an expression in order to exhaust a targeted server’s resources. | ||
13.4.18 | Vulnerebility | Application misuse is a category of cyber or security attacks which envelopes the concept of availability-based outages at Layers 5-7 on the OSI model of internetworking. The idea here is to misuse a standard, RFC, business logic or known application vulnerabilities to establish lethargic or unavailable application-layer resources. | ||
13.4.18 | TCP/IP | The TCP Window is a buffer that contains a copy of all the packets sent out by a device in case any of the packets are lost in transit (in which case they can be replaced using this buffer and resent minimizing packet loss). | ||
13.4.18 | TCP/IP | A SYN flood is a denial-of-service (DoS) attack that relies on abusing the standard way that a TCP connection is established. Typically, a client sends a SYN packet to an open port on a server asking for a TCP connection. The server then acknowledges the connection by sending SYN-ACK packet back to the client and populating the client’s information in its Transmission Control Block (TCB) table. | ||
13.4.18 | DDoS | A Fraggle Attack is a denial-of-service (DoS) attack that involves sending a large amount of spoofed UDP traffic to a router’s broadcast address within a network. It is very similar to a Smurf Attack, which uses spoofed ICMP traffic rather than UDP traffic to achieve the same goal. Given those routers (as of 1999) no longer forward packets directed at their broadcast addresses, most networks are now immune to Fraggle (and Smurf) attacks. | ||
13.4.18 | DNS | DNS amplification attack is a sophisticated denial of service attack that takes advantage of DNS servers' behavior in order to amplify the attack. In order to launch a DNS amplification attack, the attacker performs two malicious tasks. First, the attacker spoofs the IP address of the DNS resolver and replaces it with the victim's IP address. This will cause all DNS replies from the DNS servers to be sent to the victim's servers. | ||
13.4.18 | TCP/IP | A UDP flood attack is a network flood and still one of the most common floods today. The attacker sends UDP packets, typically large ones, to single destination or to random ports. In most cases the attackers spoof the SRC IP which is easy to do since the UDP protocol is "connectionless" and does not have any type of handshake mechanism or session. | ||
13.4.18 | Web | The Boy-in-the-Browser Attack is a variant of the MitB – Man-in-the-Browser attack involving malware that makes changes to a target machine's routing (often by changing an operating system's hosts file), and subsequently deleting itself. | ||
13.4.18 | TCP/IP | A counter-attack is a term taken from the military jargon used to describe large scale, usually strategic offensive operations by forces that had successfully halted an enemy’s offensive, while occupying defensive positions. | ||
13.4.18 | TCP/IP | Attack aimed at bringing a target down but doing so quietly. This is much different than high rate brute force attacks. These attacks often aim at leaving connections open on the target by creating a relatively low number of connections over a period of time and leaving those sessions open for as long as possible. | ||
13.4.18 | DoS | Slowloris is a denial-of-service (DoS) tool developed by the grey hat hacker “RSnake” that causes DoS by using a very slow HTTP request. By sending HTTP headers to the target site in tiny chunks as slow as possible (waiting to send the next tiny chunk until just before the server would time out the request), the server is forced to continue to wait for the headers to arrive. | ||
13.4.18 | TCP/IP | These attacks are essentially forceful and often involve flooding the target with an overwhelming flux of packets, whether over saturating its connection bandwidth or depleting the target's system resources. Bandwidth starvation typically assumes the attacker has access to more machines or higher bandwidth than the victim or that it utilizes an Amplification Attack. | ||
13.4.18 | Zero-Day | A Zero-Day (or Zero-Minute) Attack is a type of attack that uses a previously unknown vulnerability. Because the attack is occurring before “Day 1” of the vulnerability being publicly known, it is said that the attack occurred on “Day 0” - hence the name. | ||
13.4.18 | Tor | Torshammer is a slow-rate HTTP POST (Layer 7) DoS tool created by phiral.net. The first public occurrence of this tool dates back to early 2011. | ||
13.4.18 | Web | R.U.D.Y. attack (R-U-Dead-Yet?) is a slow-rate HTTP POST (Layer 7) denial-of-service tool created by Raviv Raz and named after the Children of Bodom album "Are You Dead Yet?" | ||
13.4.18 | Hacktivist | "Hacktivist", a portmanteau of "hack" and "activism", was a term coined in 1996 by Omega, a member of the hacking coalition "Cult of the Dead Crow" (cDc). The term can be loosely defined as, "the ethically ambiguous use of computers and computer networks in order to affect the normal operation of other systems, motivated by a desire to protest or promote political ends. | ||
8.4.18 | SIP | Application layer attack on the Session Initiation Protocol- SIP in use in VoIP services, targeted at causing denial of service to SIP servers. A SIP malformed attack consists of sending any kind of non-standard messages (malformed SIP Invite for ex) with an intentionally invalid input, therefore making the system unstable. | ||
4.4.18 | Apache | Recently we talked a lot about attacks exploiting Java deserialization vulnerabilties in systems like Apache SOLR and WebLogic. Most of these attacks targeted Linux/Unix systems. But recently, I am seeing more attacks that target windows. | ||
30.3.18 | Crypto | In cryptography, a cold boot attack (or to a lesser extent, a platform reset attack) is a type of side channel attack in which an attacker with physical access to a computer is able to retrieve encryption keys from a running operating system after using a cold reboot to restart the machine. | ||
30.3.18 | Crypto | The Lucky Thirteen attack is a cryptographic timing attack against implementations of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol that use the CBC mode of operation, first reported in February 2013 by its developers Nadhem J. AlFardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London. | ||
30.3.18 | Crypto | In cryptography, electromagnetic attacks are side-channel attacks performed by measuring the electromagnetic radiation emitted from a device and performing signal analysis on it. | ||
30.3.18 | Crypto | A PLC can receive and transmit various types of electrical and electronic signals. | ||
30.3.18 | Crypto | Embedded SoCs usually employ hundreds of pins connected to the electrical circuit. Some of these pins have a single defined purpose. | ||
30.3.18 | Crypto | Pin Control Attack is a class of attack against embedded SoC's where attacker targets I/O configuration of the embedded systems and physically terminate its connection with the software or Operating System (OS) without software/OS notices about it or receive any failure regarding I/O failures. | ||
30.3.18 | Crypto | In cryptography, a timing attack is a side channel attack in which the attacker attempts to compromise a cryptosystem by analyzing the time taken to execute cryptographic algorithms. | ||

Firmware | Unlike macs many PCs are likely to be vulnerable to pre-boot Direct Memory Access (DMA) attacks against UEFI. If an attack is successful on a system configured with secure boot - then the chain of trust is broken and secure boot becomes insecure boot. | ||
