VMware vCenter Server updates address out-of-bounds write and information disclosure vulnerabilities
We present iLeakage, a transient execution side channel targeting the Safari web browser present on Macs, iPads and iPhones. iLeakage shows that the Spectre attack is still relevant and exploitable, even after nearly 6 years of effort to mitigate it since its discovery. We show how an attacker can induce Safari to render an arbitrary webpage, subsequently recovering sensitive information present within it using speculative execution. In particular, we demonstrate how Safari allows a malicious webpage to recover secrets from popular high-value targets, such as Gmail inbox content. Finally, we demonstrate the recovery of passwords, in case these are autofilled by credential managers.
iLeakage is practical and requires minimal resources. A patch isn't (yet) available.
The Bluetooth spam feature that was initially used to inundate, and even crash, iPhones has now been expanded to cover Android and Windows devices.

First publicly reported in 2018, DarkGate is a Windows-based malware with a wide-range of capabilities including credential stealing and remote access to victim endpoints. Until recently, it was only seen being delivered through traditional email malspam campaigns. In late August 2023, however, researchers at Trusec found evidence of a campaign using external Teams messages to deliver the DarkGate Loader.
It's time for another round Citrix Patch Diffing! Earlier this month Citrix released a security bulletin which mentioned "unauthenticated buffer-related vulnerabilities" and two CVEs. These issues affected Citrix NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway.
On October 17, the FBI issued a Public Service Announcement, Cybercriminals are Targeting Plastic Surgery Offices and Patients. Five days later, DataBreaches learned that there had been another attack on a plastic surgery practice where patient data had allegedly been stolen and is in danger of being leaked publicly. It would not be surprising if the FBI knew about the attack and that it was the impetus for the newly released PSA.
Okta Security has identified adversarial activity that leveraged access to a stolen credential to access Okta's support case management system.
The threat actor was able to view files uploaded by certain Okta customers as part of recent support cases. It should be noted that the Okta support case management system is separate from the production Okta service, which is fully operational and has not been impacted. In addition, the Auth0/CIC case management system is not impacted by this incident.
We detected suspicious activity on our Okta instance that we use to manage our employee-facing apps. We immediately terminated the activity, investigated, and found no compromise of user data or other sensitive systems, either employee-facing or user-facing.
1password detected suspicious activity following the Okta support system breach. After investigation, they determined no user data was accessed.
The Spanish police have arrested 34 members of the cybercriminal group that is accused of having stolen data of over 4M individuals.

Five weeks ago, the International Criminal Court detected a serious cyber security incident, thanks to the alert mechanism provided by its monitoring system. The ICC has made various and serious efforts to address this attack. The Court deems it is its responsibility to continue to inform about these efforts and to provide the relevant additional information on the attack itself.
Last year, I published a 5-part series about Switzerland’s e-voting system. Like any internet voting system, it has inherent security
I’m a Swiss voter living abroad, and like all Swiss expats from Basel-Stadt, St.Gallen or Thurgau, I’ve been invited to vote over the internet in this year’s national election. Switzerland’s e-voting system is supposed to have safeguards to protect the election against malicious actors, however as a computer scientist, I have found a flaw in the practical implementation of one of those safeguards.
