Session Hijacking 2.0 — The Latest Way That Attackers are Bypassing MFA

Attackers are increasingly turning to session hijacking to get around widespread MFA adoption. The data supports this, as: 147,000 token replay attacks were detected by Microsoft in 2023, a 111% increase year-over-year (Microsoft).  Attacks on session cookies now happen in the same order of magnitude as password-based attacks (Google). But session hijacking isn’t a new technique – so

GHSA-9h9q-qhxg-89xr: Filament has unvalidated ColorColumn and ColorEntry values that can be used for Cross-site Scripting

### Summary If values passed to a `ColorColumn` or `ColumnEntry` are not valid and contain a specific set of characters, applications are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attack against a user who opens a page on which a color column or entry is rendered. Versions of Filament from v3.0.0 through v3.2.114 are affected. Please upgrade to Filament [v3.2.115](https://github.com/filamentphp/filament/releases/tag/v3.2.115). ### PoC > *PoC will be published in a few weeks, once developers have had a chance to upgrade their apps.* ### Response This vulnerability (in `ColorColumn` only) was reported by @sv-LayZ, who reported the issue and patched the issue during the evening of 25/09/2024.

How to Plan and Prepare for Penetration Testing

As security technology and threat awareness among organizations improves so do the adversaries who are adopting and relying on new techniques to maximize speed and impact while evading detection. Ransomware and malware continue to be the method of choice by big game hunting (BGH) cyber criminals, and the increased use of hands-on or “interactive intrusion” techniques is especially alarming.

GHSA-j827-6rgf-9629: Layui has DOM Clobbering gadgets that leads to Cross-site Scripting

### Summary A DOM Clobbering vulnerability has been discovered in `layui` that can lead to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) on web pages where attacker-controlled HTML elements (e.g., `img` tags with unsanitized `name` attributes) are present. It's worth noting that we’ve identifed similar issues in other popular client-side libraries like Webpack ([CVE-2024-43788](https://github.com/webpack/webpack/security/advisories/GHSA-4vvj-4cpr-p986)) and Vite ([CVE-2024-45812](https://github.com/vitejs/vite/security/advisories/GHSA-64vr-g452-qvp3)), which might serve as valuable references. ### Backgrounds DOM Clobbering is a type of code-reuse attack where the attacker first embeds a piece of non-script, seemingly benign HTML markups in the webpage (e.g. through a post or comment) and leverages the gadgets (pieces of js code snippet) living in the existing libraries to transform it into executable code. ### Impact This vulnerability can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) on websites that uses ...
