Bifrost is a middleware package which can synchronize MySQL/MariaDB binlog data to other types of databases. Versions 1.8.6-release and prior are vulnerable to authentication bypass when using HTTP basic authentication. This may allow group members who only have read permissions to write requests when they are normally forbidden from doing so. Version 1.8.7-release contains a patch. There are currently no known workarounds.

**Version:**

*   Bifrost Version: v1.8.5
*   Os Version: CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908

For white hats who play by the rules, here are several ethical tenets to consider.

Earlier this year when international cyber-gang Lapsus$ attacked major tech brands including Samsung, Microsoft, Nvidia and password manager Okta, an ethical line seemed to have been crossed for many cybercriminals.

Even by their murky standards, the extent of the breach, the disruption caused, and the profile of the businesses involved was just too much. So, the cybercrime community came together to punish Lapsus$ by leaking information on the group, a move that ultimately led to their arrest and breakup.

So maybe there's honor amongst thieves after all? Now, don't get me wrong; this isn't a pat on the back for cybercriminals, but it does indicate that at least some professional code is being followed.

Which raises a question for the wider law-abiding hacking community: Should we have our own ethical code of conduct? And if so, what might that look like?

**What Is Ethical Hacking?**

 First let's define ethical hacking. It is the process of assessing a computer system, network, infrastructure, or application with good intentions, to find vulnerabilities and security flaws that developers might have overlooked. Essentially, it's finding the weak spots before the bad guys do and alerting the organization, so it can avoid any big reputational or financial loss.

Ethical hacking requires, at a bare minimum, the knowledge and permission of the business or organization which is the subject of your attempted infiltration.

Here are five other guiding principles for activity to be considered ethical hacking.

**Hack To Secure**

An ethical and white-hat hacker coming to assess the security of any company will look for vulnerabilities, not only in the system but also in the reporting and information handling processes. The goal these hackers is to discover vulnerabilities, provide detailed insights, and make recommendations for building a secure environment. Ultimately, they're looking to make the organization more secure.

**Hack Responsibly**

Hackers must ensure they have permission, outlining clearly the extent of access the company is giving, as well as the scope of the work they are doing. This is very important. Target knowledge, and a clear scope, help prevent any accidental compromises and establish solid lines of communication if the hacker uncovers anything alarming. Responsibility, timely communication, and openness are vital ethical principles to abide by, and clearly distinguish a hacker from a cybercriminal and from the rest of the security team.

**Document Everything**

All good hackers keep detailed notes of everything they do during an assessment and log all command and tool output. First and foremost, this is to protect themselves. For example, if an issue occurs during a penetration test, the employer will look to the hacker first. Having a timestamped log of the activities performed, be it exploiting a system or scanning for malware, gives piece of mind to organizations by reminding them that hackers work with them, not against them.

Good notes uphold the ethical and legal side of things; they are also the basis of the report hackers will produce, even when there are no major findings. The notes will allow them to highlight the issues they have identified, the steps needed to reproduce the issues, and detailed suggestions on how to fix them.

**Keep Communications Active**

Open and timely communications should be clearly defined in the contract. Staying in communication throughout an assessment is key. Good practice is to always notify when assessments are running; a daily email with the assessment run times is vital.

While the hacker might not need to report all the vulnerabilities they find immediately to their client contact, they still should flag any critical, show-stopping flaw during an external penetration test. This could be an exploitable unauthenticated RCE or SQLi, a malicious code execution, or sensitive data disclosure vulnerability. When encountering these, hackers stop testing, issue a written vulnerability notification via email, and follow up with a phone call. This gives teams on the business side the chance to pause and fix the issue immediately if they choose. It's irresponsible to let a flaw of this magnitude go unflagged until the report is issued weeks later.

Hackers should keep their main points of contact aware of their progress and any major issues they discover as they proceed. This ensures everyone is aware of any issues ahead of the final report.

**Have a Hacker Mindset**

The term hacking was used even before information security grew in importance. It just means to use things in unintended ways. For this, hackers first seek to understand all the intended use cases of a system and take into consideration all its components.

Hackers must keep developing this mindset and never stop learning. This allows them to think both from a defensive and an offensive perspective and is useful when looking at something you have never experienced before. By creating best practices, understanding the target, and creating attack paths, a hacker can deliver amazing results.

Should Hacking Have a Code of Conduct?

Cybersecurity today matters so much because of everyone's dependence on technology, from collaboration, communication and collecting data to e-commerce and entertainment. Every organisation that needs to deliver services to their customers and employees must protect their IT 'network' - all the apps and connected devices from laptops and desktops to servers and smartphones.

While traditionally, these would all live on one "corporate network," - networks today are often just made up of the devices themselves, and how they're connected: across the internet, sometimes via VPNs, to the homes and cafes people work from, to the cloud and data centres where services live. So what threats does this modern network face?

Let's look at them in more detail.

****#1 Misconfiguration****

According to recent research by Verizon, misconfiguration errors and misuse now make up 14% of breaches. Misconfiguration errors occur when configuring a system or application so that it's less secure. This can happen when you change a setting without fully understanding the consequences, or when an incorrect value is entered. Either can create a serious vulnerability - for example, a misconfigured firewall can allow unauthorized access to an internal network, or a wrongly configured web server could leak sensitive information.

****#2 Outdated software****

Software and app developers constantly release updates with patches to cover vulnerabilities that have been discovered in their code. Applying patches to fix these vulnerabilities across an organisation's entire network of devices can be time-consuming and complex to implement - but it is essential. If you don't update your software, firmware and operating systems to the latest versions as they're released, you're leaving your network exposed. A vulnerability scanner will give you a real-time inventory of all the software which needs updating, as well as detect misconfigurations that reduce your security, so you can stay as secure as possible.

****#3 DoS attack****

The previous two threats are usually exploited to breach networks and steal information, but a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack is meant to shut down your network and make it inaccessible.

This can be done by many means, either with malware, or by flooding the target network with traffic, or sending information that triggers a crash such as requesting overly complex queries that lock up a database. In each case, the DoS attack prevents customers or employees from using the service or resources they expect.

DoS attacks often target websites of high-profile organisations such as banks, media companies and governments. Though DoS attacks don't usually result in the theft or loss of data, they can cost you a great deal of time and money to handle. A properly configured content delivery network (CDN) can help protect websites against DoS attacks and other common malicious attacks.

****#4 Application bugs****

A software bug is an error, flaw or fault in an application or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result. Bugs exist in every piece of code for all sorts of reasons, from improper testing or messy code to a lack of communication or inadequate specifications documents.

Not all bugs are cyber security issues or vulnerable to exploitation where an attacker can use the fault to access the network and run code remotely. However, some bugs like SQL injection can be very serious, and allow the attackers to compromise your site or steal data. Not only do SQL injections leave sensitive data exposed, but they can also enable remote access and control of affected systems. This is just one example of a type of application bug, but there are many others.

Injections are common if developers haven't had sufficient security training, or where mistakes are made and not code reviewed – or when combined with inadequate continuous security testing. However, even when all these things are done - mistakes can still happen, which is why it's still ranked as the #1 threat in the OWASP Top Ten Web Application Security Risks. Fortunately, many types of injection vulnerabilities (and other application level security bugs) can be detected with an authenticated web vulnerability scanner, and penetration testing for more sensitive applications.

****#5 Attack surface management****

Can you secure your business if you don't know what internet-facing assets you own? Not effectively. Without a complete and updated inventory of internet-facing assets, you don't know what services are available and how attackers can attempt to get in. But keeping on top of them and ensuring that they're being monitored for weaknesses isn't exactly a walk in the park as IT estates grow and evolve almost daily.

When companies try to document their systems, they often rely on manually updating a simple spreadsheet, but between configuration changes, new technologies, and shadow IT, they rarely know exactly what assets they own or where. But discovering, tracking, and protecting all these assets is a critical component of strong security for every business.

A vulnerability scanner is a dynamic, automated tool that can keep track of what's exposed to the internet, and restrict anything that doesn't need to be there - like that old Windows 2003 box everyone's forgotten about, or a web server that a developer spun up for a quick test before leaving the business…

It can also keep a constant watch over your cloud accounts and automatically add any new external IP addresses or hostnames as targets. And it can help with 'asset discovery' when companies need help finding their IP addresses and domains that they don't even know about.

****What does this mean for you?****

Attackers use automated tools to identify and exploit vulnerabilities and access unsecured systems, networks or data - however big or small your organisation. Finding and exploiting vulnerabilities with automated tools is simple: the attacks listed above are cheap, easy to perform and often indiscriminate, so every organisation is at risk. All it takes is one vulnerability for an attacker to access your network.

Knowing where your vulnerabilities and weak points are is the first and most important step. If you spot your vulnerabilities early, you can address them before an attacker can exploit them. A vulnerability scanner is a cloud-based service that identifies security vulnerabilities in computer systems, networks and software. Vulnerability scanners provide a continuous service that searches for network threats and vulnerabilities - everything from weak passwords to configuration mistakes or unpatched software - so you can address them before attackers exploit them.

****Vulnerability management made easy****

Intruder's network vulnerability scanner is powered by industry-leading scanning engines used by banks and governments across the world. It's capable of finding over 11,000+ vulnerabilities and focuses on what matters, saving time with contextually-prioritised results. Using noise reduction, it only reports actionable issues that have a genuine impact on your security.
