Learn how Bishop Fox built a POC exploit for the pre-authentication remote code injection vulnerability in the Fortinet SSL VPN published by Lexfo.
TAG’s discovery of a 0-day exploit used to steal email data from international government organizations.
In 2020, we launched a novel format for our vulnerability reward program (VRP) with the kCTF VRP and its continuation kernelCTF. For the first time, security researchers could get bounties for n-day exploits even if they didn’t find the vulnerability themselves. This format proved valuable in improving our understanding of the most widely exploited parts of the linux kernel. Its success motivated us to expand it to new areas and we're now excited to announce that we're extending it to two new targets: v8CTF and kvmCTF.
Last week Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG), in partnership with The Citizen Lab, discovered an in-the-wild 0-day exploit chain for iPhones. Developed by the commercial surveillance vendor, Intellexa, this exploit chain is used to install its Predator spyware surreptitiously onto a device.
In response, yesterday, Apple patched the bugs in iOS 16.7 and iOS 17.0.1 as CVE-2023-41991, CVE-2023-41992, CVE-2023-41993. This quick patching from Apple helps to better protect users and we encourage all iOS users to install them as soon as possible.
CISA received 4 files for analysis from an incident response engagement conducted at an Aeronautical Sector organization.
2 files (bitmap.exe, wkHPd.exe) are identified as variants of Metasploit (Meterpreter) and designed to connect and receive unencrypted payloads from their respective command and control (C2) servers. Note: Metasploit is an open source penetration testing software; Meterpreter is a Metasploit attack payload that runs an interactive shell. These executables are used as attack payloads to run interactive shells, allowing a malicious actor the ability to control and execute code on a system.
2 files (resource.aspx, ConfigLogin.aspx) are Active Server Pages (ASPX) web shells designed to execute remote JavaScript code on the victim server.
we continue our series on stalkerware with a write-up and batch of data sent to me by a source last night. this time it is the brazilian ownspy (aka webdetective and saferspy, by mobileinnova) that has been completely hacked. among other things ownspy claims to be the #1 most privacy focused "parental control app" allegedly featuring E2E encryption, if this sounds too good to be true that's because it mostly is, but more on that later.
The supply-chain cyberattack that targeted Progress Software’s MOVEit Transfer application has compromised over 963 private and public-sector organizations worldwide. The ransomware group, Cl0p, launched this attack campaign over Memorial Day weekend.
Some higher-profile victims of the hack include Maximus, Deloitte, TIAA, Ernst & Young, Shell, Deutsche Bank, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Sony, Siemens, BBC, British Airways, the U.S. Department of Energy, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles, the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing, and other U.S. government agencies. Thus far, the personal data of over 58 million people is believed to have been exposed in this exploit campaign.
Cybersecurity researchers have documented a novel post-exploit persistence technique on iOS 16 that could be abused to fly under the radar and maintain access to an Apple device even when the victim believes it is offline.
The method "tricks the victim into thinking their device's Airplane Mode works when in reality the attacker (following successful device exploit) has planted an artificial Airplane Mode which edits the UI to display Airplane Mode icon and cuts internet connection to all apps except the attacker application," Jamf Threat Labs researchers Hu Ke and Nir Avraham said in a report shared with The Hacker News.
Researchers began to detect exploit attempts in the wild targeting the patched, high-severity flaw in TP-Link routers starting on April 11.
Fast-growing e-commerce app Pinduoduo had an EvilParcel stow-away.

GoAnywhere MFT, a popular file transfer application, is warning about a zero-day remote code injection exploit. The company said it has temporarily implemented a service outage in response.
Don’t delay, especially if you’re still running an iOS 12 device… please do it today!
a new Grand Theft Auto: Online exploit now allows cheaters to ban or delete peoples online profile and edit their stats
We see that one of our vulnerabilities is exploited in the wild Link. So we decided to public the detail analysis of our two bug chains. Any customer has enough information to mitigate these bugs. The vendor also released all patches a week ago. This blog post shares the detail
Proof-of-concept exploit code has been released online for two actively exploited and high-severity vulnerabilities in Microsoft Exchange, collectively known as ProxyNotShell.
WeightBufs is a kernel r/w exploit for all Apple devices with Neural Engine support. Bugs and Exploit by @simo36, you can read my presentation slides at POC for more details about the vulnerabilities and the exploitation techniques.
There are many security solutions available today that rely on the Extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) features of the Linux kernel to monitor kernel functions. Such a paradigm shift in the latest monitoring technologies is being driven by a variety of reasons
Netfilter is a framework in the Linux kernel for implementing various networking-related tasks with user-defined handlers. Netfilter provides various functions for packet filtering, network address translation and port translation, and packet logging. Netfilter represents a set of hooks that allow other kernel modules to register callback functions in the kernel’s networking stack.
