A security researcher was awarded a bug bounty of $107,500 for identifying security issues in Google Home smart speakers that could be exploited to install backdoors and turn them into wiretapping devices. The flaws "allowed an attacker within wireless proximity to install a 'backdoor' account on the device, enabling them to send commands to it remotely over the internet, access its microphone
Users searching for popular software are being targeted by a new malvertising campaign that abuses Google Ads to serve trojanized variants that deploy malware, such as Raccoon Stealer and Vidar. The activity makes use of seemingly credible websites with typosquatted domain names that are surfaced on top of Google search results in the form of malicious ads by hijacking searches for specific
### Impact The vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to terminate the application with a stack overflow error resulting in a denial of service only by manipulating the processed input stream. ### Patches XStream 1.4.20 handles the stack overflow and raises an InputManipulationException instead. ### Workarounds The attack uses the hash code implementation for collections and maps to force recursive hash calculation causing a stack overflow. Following types of the Java runtime are affected: - java.util.HashMap - java.util.HashSet - java.util.Hashtable - java.util.LinkedHashMap - java.util.LinkedHashSet - Other third party collection implementations that use their element's hash code may also be affected A simple solution is to catch the StackOverflowError in the client code calling XStream. If your object graph does not use referenced elements at all, you may simply set the NO_REFERENCE mode: ```Java XStream xstream = new XStream(); xstream.setMode(XStream.NO_REFERENCES); ``` I...
StreamX applications from versions 6.02.01 to 6.04.34 are affected by a logic bug that allows to bypass the implemented authentication scheme. StreamX applications using StreamView HTML component with the public web server feature activated are affected.
Decentralized multi-chain crypto wallet BitKeep on Wednesday confirmed a cyberattack that allowed threat actors to distribute fraudulent versions of its Android app with the goal of stealing users' digital currencies.
