Windows に関する報奨金プログラムの発表

本記事は、Microsoft Security Response Center のブログ “Announcing the Windows Bounty Program” (2017 年 7 月 26 日 米

Announcing the Windows Bounty Program

Windows 10 represents the best and newest in our strong commitment to security with world-class mitigations. One of Microsoft’s longstanding strategies toward improving software security involves investing in defensive technologies that make it difficult and costly for attackers to find, exploit and leverage vulnerabilities. We built in mitigations and defenses such as DEP, ASLR, CFG, CIG, ACG, Device Guard, and Credential Guard to harden our systems and we continue adding defenses such as Windows Defender Application Guard to significantly increase protection to harden entry points while ensuring the customer experience is seamless.

EnglishmansDentist Exploit Analysis

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.

CVE-2017-3100: Adobe Security Bulletin

Adobe Flash Player versions 26.0.0.131 and earlier have an exploitable memory corruption vulnerability in the Action Script 2 BitmapData class. Successful exploitation could lead to memory address disclosure.

CVE-2017-2863: TALOS-2017-0367 || Cisco Talos Intelligence Group

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability exists in the PDF parsing functionality of Infix 7.1.5. A specially crafted PDF file can cause a vulnerability resulting in potential memory corruption. An attacker can send the victim a specific PDF file to trigger this vulnerability.

[IT 管理者向け] TLS 1.2 への移行を推奨しています

こんにちは、垣内由梨香です データを暗号化し安全にやり取りを行う Transport Layer Security (TLS)。TLS は利用しているが、詳細なバージョンまでは把握してない、そんな方も多いのではないでしょうか?暗号プロトコルは「使ってさえいれば安全」ではありません。現在の脅威に対応できるバージョンのみを利用しリスクを下げることが重要です。 マイクロソフトでは、より安全な TLS 1.2 へ移行していくことを推奨しています。 ** [2020/9/7 追記] 各製品、サービスにおける TLS 1.0/1.1 の廃止予定については、次の情報を参考にしてください。 TLS 1.0 and 1.1 deprecation https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-sharepoint-blog/tls-1-0-and-1-1-deprecation/ba-p/1620264

Eternal Champion Exploit Analysis

Recently, a group named the ShadowBrokers published several remote server exploits targeting various protocols on older versions of Windows. In this post we are going to look at the EternalChampion exploit in detail to see what vulnerabilities it exploited, how it exploited them, and how the latest mitigations in Windows 10 break the exploit as-written.

Update on Petya malware attacks

As happened recently with WannaCrypt, we again face a malicious attack in the form of ransomware, Petya. In early reports, there was a lot of conflicting information reported on the attacks, including conflation of unrelated and misleading pieces of data, so Microsoft teams mobilized to investigate and analyze, enabling our Malware Protection team to release signatures to detect and protect against the malware.
