As Threat Actors Continuously Adapt their TTPs in Today’s Threat Landscape, So Must You Earlier this year, threat researchers at Cybersixgill released the annual report, The State of the Cybercrime Underground. The research stems from an analysis of Cybersixgill's collected intelligence items throughout 2022, gathered from the deep, dark and clear web. The report examines the continuous

Confidential Computing is a set of technologies designed to protect data in use (for example, it provides memory encryption). This article is fifth in a six-part series (see the previous article), about various Confidential Computing usage models, and the requirements to get the expected security and trust benefits. In this article, I explore the many available Confidential Computing platforms, and discuss how they differ in implementation, and specifically in how to perform attestation: AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) in its three generations (SEV, SEV-ES and SEV-SNP) Intel

A few lines of code can help you prevent accidental exposure, manage sensitive information, and maintain different configurations for various environments.

A PRC-aligned actor used a trio of custom malware to take advantage of inherent weaknesses in edge appliances.

RedTeam Pentesting discovered that the web interface of STARFACE as well as its REST API allows authentication using the SHA512 hash of the password instead of the cleartext password. While storing password hashes instead of cleartext passwords in an application's database generally has become best practice to protect users' passwords in case of a database compromise, this is rendered ineffective when allowing to authenticate using the password hash.

Adobe Animate versions 22.0.9 (and earlier) and 23.0.1 (and earlier) are affected by a Use After Free vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.

Adobe Substance 3D Designer version 12.4.1 (and earlier) is affected by an Access of Uninitialized Pointer vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.

phpFK version 8.0 suffers from a cross site scripting vulnerability.

PyLoad version 0.5.0 suffers from an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability.

The information leak threats are certainly new, but the education and messaging from security evangelists (and even just anyone trying to educate an older or less security-savvy family member) doesn’t change.
