The United States today unveiled sanctions and indictments against the alleged proprietor of Joker's Stash, a now-defunct cybercrime store that peddled tens of millions of payment cards stolen in some of the largest data breaches of the past decade. The…
The Binarly REsearch team has consistently uncovered security vulnerabilities in the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) firmware -- a critical component of modern data center infrastructure. These vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely by threat actors, posing significant risk to enterprises.
In a previous report, “Old But Gold: The Underestimated Potency of Decades-Old Attacks on BMC Security,” we documented the BMC architecture in detail and showed that it is still possible to find classes of vulnerabilities known from the early 2000s.
A notorious hacker has announced the theft of data from an improperly protected server allegedly belonging to Deloitte.
The hacker known as IntelBroker announced late last week on the BreachForums cybercrime forum the availability of “internal communications” obtained from Deloitte, specifically an internet-exposed Apache Solr server that was accessible with default credentials.
On June 11th, 2024, we discovered a set of vulnerabilities in Kia vehicles that allowed remote control over key functions using only a license plate. These attacks could be executed remotely on any hardware-equipped vehicle in about 30 seconds, regardless of whether it had an active Kia Connect subscription.
Additionally, an attacker could silently obtain personal information, including the victim's name, phone number, email address, and physical address. This would allow the attacker to add themselves as an invisible second user on the victim's vehicle without their knowledge.
A key member of the notorious hacker group SiegedSec was arrested today by federal authorities. The arrest came just hours after the hacker published a provocative manifesto titled “The Conscience of a Catgirl.” The document offers sharp criticisms of governments, corporations, and the state of modern surveillance, right before the hacker was taken into custody.
CrowdStrike says it has revamped several testing, validation, and update rollout processes to prevent a repeat of the embarrassing July outage that caused widespread disruption on Windows systems around the world.
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the OpenPLC Runtime EtherNet/IP parser functionality of OpenPLC _v3 b4702061dc14d1024856f71b4543298d77007b88. A specially crafted EtherNet/IP request can lead to remote code execution. An attacker can send a series of EtherNet/IP requests to trigger this vulnerability.
Tens of thousands of fuel storage tanks in critical infrastructure facilities remain vulnerable to zero-day attacks due to buggy Automatic Tank Gauge systems from multiple vendors, say infosec researchers.
Automatic Tank Gauges (ATGs) are used to monitor fuel levels in storage tanks and ensure that the tanks don't leak. The ten CVEs disclosed today were found in products from several different vendors: Dover Fueling Solutions (DFS), OPW Fuel Management Systems (owned by DFS), Franklin Fueling Systems, and OMNTEC.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the federal body that sets technology standards for governmental agencies, standards organizations, and private companies, has proposed barring some of the most vexing and nonsensical password requirements. Chief among them: mandatory resets, required or restricted use of certain characters, and the use of security questions.
China-linked threat actors compromised some U.S. internet service providers as part of a cyber espionage campaign code-named Salt Typhoon.
The state-sponsored hackers aimed at gathering intelligence from the targets or carrying out disruptive cyberattacks.
The Wall Street Journal reported that experts are investigating into the security breached to determine if the attackers gained access to Cisco Systems routers, which are core network components of the ISP infrastructures.
McAfee Labs recently observed an infection chain where fake CAPTCHA pages are being leveraged to distribute malware, specifically Lumma Stealer. We are observing a campaign targeting multiple countries. Below is a map showing the geolocation of devices accessing fake CAPTCHA URLs, highlighting the global distribution of the attack.
Kryptina's adoption by Mallox affiliates complicates malware tracking as ransomware operators blend different codebases into new variants.
