#backdoor

GE Communicator, all versions prior to 4.0.517, contains two backdoor accounts with hardcoded credentials, which may allow control over the database. This service is inaccessible to attackers if Windows default firewall settings are used by the end user.

D-Link DIR-850L REV. A (with firmware through FW114WWb07_h2ab_beta1) devices have XSS in the action parameter to htdocs/web/wandetect.php.

Introduction Introduction We are continuing our series of blog posts dissecting the exploits released by ShadowBrokers in April 2017. After the first two posts about the SMB exploits known as EternalChampion and EternalSynergy, we’ll move this time to analyze a different tool and we’ll focus on the exploit named EnglishmansDentist designed to target Exchange Server 2003.

Over the summer we had overwhelming response to our BlueHat v16 call for papers. We would like to give a special thanks to all who submitted papers for consideration. The range of content and quality of content was exceptional. So with that, today we are happy to announce our schedule for the general audience portion of the conference.

Today we released eight security bulletins addressing 13 unique CVE’s. Two bulletins have a maximum severity rating of Critical while the other six have a maximum severity rating of Important. The table is designed to help you prioritize the deployment of updates appropriately for your environment. Bulletin Most likely attack vector Max Bulletin Severity Max exploit-ability Likely first 30 days impact Platform mitigations and key notes MS14-029(Internet Explorer) Victim browses to a malicious webpage.

Today, Microsoft released Security Advisory 2953095 to notify customers of a vulnerability in Microsoft Word. At this time, we are aware of limited, targeted attacks directed at Microsoft Word 2010. This blog will discuss mitigations and temporary defensive strategies that will help customers to protect themselves while we are working on a security update.

D-Link DSR-150 with firmware before 1.08B44; DSR-150N with firmware before 1.05B64; DSR-250 and DSR-250N with firmware before 1.08B44; and DSR-500, DSR-500N, DSR-1000, and DSR-1000N with firmware before 1.08B77 stores account passwords in cleartext, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the Users[#]["Password"] fields in /tmp/teamf1.cfg.ascii.

The web interface on D-Link DIR-100, DIR-120, DI-624S, DI-524UP, DI-604S, DI-604UP, DI-604+, and TM-G5240 routers; Planex BRL-04R, BRL-04UR, and BRL-04CW routers; and Alpha Networks routers allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and modify settings via an xmlset_roodkcableoj28840ybtide User-Agent HTTP header, as exploited in the wild in October 2013.

The NIST SP 800-90A default statement of the Dual Elliptic Curve Deterministic Random Bit Generation (Dual_EC_DRBG) algorithm contains point Q constants with a possible relationship to certain "skeleton key" values, which might allow context-dependent attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging knowledge of those values. NOTE: this is a preliminary CVE for Dual_EC_DRBG; future research may provide additional details about point Q and associated attacks, and could potentially lead to a RECAST or REJECT of this CVE.
