By Abhishek Singh. BEC is a multi-stage attack. Adversaries first identify targets, then they establish rapport with the victim before exploiting them for whatever their end goal is. In the case of BEC, a threat actor can impersonate any employee in the organization to trick targets.   A policy that checks for authorized email addresses of the sender can prevent BEC attacks. However, scaling the approach for every employee in a large organization is a challenge.   Building an executive profile based on email analysis using a machine learning model and scanning emails against that profile will detect BEC. Data collection for building and training machine learning algorithms can take time, though, opening a window of opportunity for threat actors to exploit.   Detection of exploitation techniques such as lookalike domains and any differences in the email addresses in the "From" and "Reply-to" fields can also detect BEC messages. However, the final verdict cannot account for the threat ...

HelpSystems, the company behind the Cobalt Strike software platform, has released an out-of-band security update to address a remote code execution vulnerability that could allow an attacker to take control of targeted systems. Cobalt Strike is a commercial red-team framework that's mainly used for adversary simulation, but cracked versions of the software have been actively abused by ransomware

An Improper Control of a Resource Through its Lifetime vulnerability in the Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on MX Series allows an unauthenticated adjacent attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS). When there is a continuous mac move a memory corruption causes one or more FPCs to crash and reboot. These MAC moves can be between two local interfaces or between core/EVPN and local interface. The below error logs can be seen in PFE syslog when this issue happens: xss_event_handler(1071): EA[0:0]_PPE 46.xss[0] ADDR Error. ppe_error_interrupt(4298): EA[0:0]_PPE 46 Errors sync xtxn error xss_event_handler(1071): EA[0:0]_PPE 1.xss[0] ADDR Error. ppe_error_interrupt(4298): EA[0:0]_PPE 1 Errors sync xtxn error xss_event_handler(1071): EA[0:0]_PPE 2.xss[0] ADDR Error. This issue affects Juniper Networks Junos OS on MX Series: All versions prior to 15.1R7-S13; 19.1 versions prior to 19.1R3-S9; 19.2 versions prior to 19.2R3-S6; 19.3 versions prior to 19.3R3-S6; 19.4 ...

An Improper Control of a Resource Through its Lifetime vulnerability in Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows unauthenticated adjacent attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS). In an EVPN-MPLS scenario, if MAC is learned locally on an access interface but later a request to delete is received indicating that the MAC was learnt remotely, this can lead to memory corruption which can result in line card crash and reload. This issue affects: Juniper Networks Junos OS All versions 17.3R1 and later versions prior to 19.2R3-S5; 19.3 versions prior to 19.3R3-S5; 19.4 versions prior to 19.4R2-S6, 19.4R3-S8; 20.1 version 20.1R1 and later versions; 20.2 versions prior to 20.2R3-S4; 20.3 versions prior to 20.3R3-S3; 20.4 versions prior to 20.4R3-S3; 21.1 versions prior to 21.1R3-S1; 21.2 versions prior to 21.2R3; 21.3 versions prior to 21.3R2; 21.4 versions prior to 21.4R1-S1, 21.4R2.
