The 13th International Workshop on Cyber Crime, or IWCC, 2024 call for papers has been announced. It will take place July 30th through August 2nd, 2024 in Vienna, Austria.

    [APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTING]CALL FOR PAPERS13th International Workshop on Cyber Crime (IWCC 2024 -https://www.ares-conference.eu/iwcc/)to be held in conjunction with the 19th International Conference onAvailability, Reliability and Security (ARES 2024 -http://www.ares-conference.eu) July 30 - August 02, 2024, Vienna, AustriaIMPORTANT DATESSubmission Deadline  May 12, 2024Author Notification  May 29, 2024Proceedings Version  June 18, 2024Conference    July 30 - August 02, 2024WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONThe societies of today's world are becoming increasingly dependent on onlineservices, where commercial activities, business transactions, governmentservices and biomedical diagnostics are realized. This tendency has beenevident during the recent COVID-19 pandemic. These developments, along withthe growing number of military conflicts worldwide (Ukraine, Israel, etc.),have led to the fast development of new cyber threats and numerousinformation security issues that are exploited by cybercriminals. Theinability to provide trusted, secure services in contemporary computernetwork technologies has a tremendous socio-economic impact on globalenterprises as well as individuals.Moreover, the frequently occurring international frauds impose the necessityto conduct investigations spanning multiple domains and countries. Suchexamination is often subject to different jurisdictions and legal systems. Agood illustration of the above is the Internet, which has made it easier toprepare and perpetrate traditional - but now cyber-enabled - crimes. It hasacted as an alternate avenue for criminals to conduct their activities andlaunch attacks with relative anonymity, a high degree of deniability, andthe opportunity to operate in a border-agnostic environment. Worryingdevelopments in the abuse of artificial intelligence and machine learningtechnologies lead to the increased capabilities of malign actors wholeverage these tools to design and propagate disinformation, which isespecially dangerous (and effective) during emergencies and crises of allkinds. The developments in Generative Artificial Intelligence have alsoenabled the increase of criminal capabilities in the production,dissemination, and weaponization of high-quality, convincing fake contact(text, audio, images, and videos), which translates not only to the truthand trust decay among the affected societies but also to the enhancedcapabilities in orchestrating the sophisticated cyber crimes. Furthermore, nowadays, the majority of life-science-based techniques andresulting data hinge on information technologies. Despite their considerableadvantages, dependence on cyber technologies also exposes vulnerabilities.Various threats in the digital realm could target biomedical systems,leading to adverse consequences. The field of CyberBioSecurity wasestablished to assist bio-related sciences in comprehending potential cyberthreats and formulating defense approaches, recovery protocols, andresilience strategies. The increased complexity of communications and thenetworking infrastructure is making the investigation of these new types ofcrimes difficult. Traces of illegal digital activities are difficult toanalyze due to large volumes of data. Nowadays, the digital crime scenefunctions like any other network, with dedicated administrators functioningas the first responders. This poses new challenges for law enforcement and intelligence communitiesand forces computer societies to utilize digital forensics to combat theincreasing number of cybercrimes. Forensic professionals must be fullyprepared to be able to provide court-admissible evidence. To make thesegoals achievable, forensic techniques should keep pace with newtechnologies. Prevention, mitigation, and interdiction of new and emergingthreats necessitates an increasingly thorough and multidisciplinaryapproaches, but also requires the collaboration of all relevant actors andstakeholders in designing the technology regulation and cyber governancemeasures.The aim of this workshop is to bring together the research outcomes providedby researchers from academia and the industry. The other goal is to show thelatest research results in digital forensics and cyberbiosecurity amongstothers. We strongly encourage prospective authors to submit articlespresenting both theoretical approaches and practical case reviews, includingwork-in-progress reports.TOPICS OF INTEREST INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:- Big Data analytics helping to track cybercrimes- Protecting Big Data against cybercrimes- Crime-as-a-service- Criminal abuse of clouds and social networks- Criminal to criminal (C2C) communications- Criminal to victim (C2V) communications- Criminal use of IoT, e.g., IoT-based botnets- Cyberbiosecurity- Cybercrime-related investigations- Cybercrimes: evolution, new trends and detection- Darknets and hidden services- Fake (incl. deepfake) and disinformation detection- Generative Artificial Intelligence and cyber crime- AI-enabled crime and terrorism- Mobile malware- Network anomaly detection- Network traffic analysis, traceback and attribution- Incident response, investigation and evidence handling- Internet governance- Novel techniques in exploit kits- Political and business issues related to digital forensics andanti-forensic - techniques- Anti-forensic techniques and methods- Identification, authentication and collection of digital evidence- Integrity of digital evidence and live investigations- Privacy issues in digital forensics- Ransomware: evolution, functioning, types, etc.- Steganography/steganalysis and covert/subliminal channels- Technology regulation- Novel applications of information hiding in networks- Watermarking and intellectual property theft- Weaponization of information - cyber-enhanced disinformation campaignsWORKSHOP CHAIRSArtur Janicki, Warsaw University of Technology, Poland; Kacper Gradoñ, Warsaw University of Technology, Poland;Katarzyna Kamiñska, Warsaw University of Technology, PolandSUBMISSION GUIDELINESThe submission guidelines valid for the workshop are the same as for theARES conference.

1. CVE-2020-8006 Pre-Auth Stack Based Buffer Overflow  
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H (10)

The server in Circontrol Raption through 5.11.2 has a pre-authentication  
stack-based buffer overflow that can be exploited to gain run-time control  
of the device as root.

When the server parses the HTTP headers and finds the Basic-Authentication  
tag it will call a base64 decode function. This function takes 3 arguments:  
an input pointer, an output pointer and a length. During the authentication  
flow, the input pointer can be an attacker controlled string of  
approximately 4096 characters, and the output pointer is located on the  
stack, the length argument is 512. While the length of the stack based  
buffer is passed to the decoder it only verifies that it is not smaller than  
3.

Circontrol Raption Buffer Overflow / Command Injection

FusionPBX suffers from a session fixation vulnerability.

*Vulnerability Name - *Application is Vulnerable to Session Fixation

*Vulnerable URL: *www.fusionpbx.com

*Overview of the Vulnerability*  
Session fixation is a security vulnerability that occurs when an attacker  
sets or fixes a user's session identifier, manipulating the authentication  
process. Typically exploited in web applications, this vulnerability allows  
the attacker to force a user's session ID to a known value, granting  
unauthorized access. Attackers can initiate the attack by tricking users  
into using a provided session ID or by planting a session ID through  
various means.

*Steps to Reproduce*  
Step 1: To reproduce this vulnerability open two browsers. Copy "PHPSESSID"  
cookie from Browser 1 and paste it to Browser 2.  
Step 2: Login in Browser 1 using valid credentials.  
Step 3: Navigate to Browser 2 and refresh the page or open this URL (  
https://www.fusionpbx.com/app/account/home.php)  
Step 4: Successfully logged in Browser 2 without entering the credentials.

*Impact of Vulnerability:*  
Anyone can easily hijack victims or user's sessions and get into his account  
. Cookie stealing is the best way the hacker can get into account.. it  
would not take more than 5 min to steal someone's cookie using PHP and all  
.....  
Even friends can fool the victim and get him hacked...

*Mitigation:*Manage sessions properly. This problem is mainly faced because  
the session doesn't get expired or doesn't get closed when logout is  
pressed. Each time the user logins the cookie must hold a unique different  
session-id to proceed.

**Singapore, 28 March 2024** – GoPlus Labs, the leading Web3 security infrastructure provider, has unveiled a groundbreaking report that highlights the growing, widespread use and potential of Web3 user security data to aid in risk management.

The findings of the report reveal a clear and growing demand for more advanced security tools that can effectively safeguard digital assets, verify the authenticity of nonfungible tokens (**NFTs**) and monitor decentralized applications for threats. 

The report, “Uncharted Consensus: The Widespread Use and Potential of User Security Data in Web3”, showcases the rapid adoption of GoPlus’s API suite, which provides Web3 industry stakeholders with unparalleled insights into the health and vulnerability of various cryptocurrencies, NFTs and decentralized applications. At the same time, it also underscores the unique role GoPlus plays in addressing Web3’s most pressing security challenges.

GoPlus is the developer of an API suite that’s designed to address the multifaceted challenges of Web3 user security, enabling targeted data analysis across key aspects of the industry. Its modules include a Token RIsk API and NFT Risk API that evaluate the risk associated with different cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens; a Malicious address API for monitoring and reporting malicious addresses; a dApp Security API for real-time monitoring and threat detection in decentralized applications; and an Approval API for checking malicious approval of an address.

The report shows there is rising demand for better Web3 security solutions, with GoPlus revealing that its Token Risk API saw a rapid increase in utilization from November 2023, with some months witnessing peaks of over 20 million calls per day.  This suggests that the crypto industry is collectively shifting towards pre-emptive risk identification and mitigation, driven by the evolving and intensifying landscape of security threats. 

These increases were mirrored by similar usage spikes in GoPlus’s other API modules. For instance, usage of its NFT API spiked between Dec. 2022 and Feb. 2023, and then several times again between March and May 2023, before stabilizing, followed by a sustained period of much steadier growth. These usage trends mirror the growing adoption of NFTs and the corresponding need for tools that can accurately assess the risks associated with these digital assets.

****Evolving Threat Landscape****

A closer analysis of the API usage data illustrated a significant fluctuation in the presence of “high-risk” tokens, reflecting a threat landscape that’s just as volatile as the crypto industry itself. The majority of these high-risk tokens were identified as being either “blacklisted” or “honeypots”, although many other kinds of threats were identified, illustrating the evolving tactics used by hackers and scammers in the industry. The report also found an exponential increase in threats associated with NFTs, such as privileged operations (burn and minting), restricted approvals, self-destruct mechanisms and unauthorized transfers.

The threat-related insights demonstrate the need for Web3 projects to employ more dynamic, robust and adaptable security strategies and countermeasures to deal with the evolving threat landscape, as well as the need for education and collaboration to increase awareness of these threats and find better ways to mitigate them.

****Top Ecosystems & Threats****

The comprehensive study also highlighted the differing levels of user engagement and **security concerns across blockchains**, providing perspective on the unique challenges and risks faced by each ecosystem. 

BNB Chain emerged as the most prominent user of GoPlus’s APIs, being queried more than 92.7 million times during the research period. This reflects Binance’s laudable achievement in fostering a large community that’s united in its determination to identify and proactively mitigate security risks such as token vulnerabilities and scams.

Ethereum was the second-most popular chain to leverage GoPlus, with users querying its APIs 84 million times, highlighting both the extent of its user base and its vigilance against vulnerabilities and scams. Meanwhile, Polygon also stood out with almost 9.8 million queries during the period. This high level of adoption in the much smaller Polygon community illustrates the strong emphasis it places on scaling security solutions for the Web3 industry. 

Other insights from the report include the top ten token risks faced by the crypto industry today, with further analysis uncovering ten tokens with characteristics that mark them out as being “particularly malicious”, and also the top ten NFT collections that could be perceived as risky, due to their close association with phishing scams.  

****The Importance Of User Security Insights****

The GoPlus report provides valuable insights into aspects such as user engagement, preferences and the nature of the evolving threats in Web3, which can be essential for stakeholders to make more informed decisions and mitigate the risks they face. 

Perhaps the most significant finding is that the report underlines the critical importance Web3 security data can play in helping the industry address the evolving risk landscape. As the Web3 ecosystem grows and evolves, the need for comprehensive security data will become all the more vital, helping dApp developers protect their users, while educating users on how to protect themselves.
