Researchers have uncovered additional weaknesses in the Windows SmartScreen system first introduced in Windows 8, along with Smart App Control (SAC), an evolution of SmartScreen designed to add significant protection against new and emerging threats by blocking apps that are malicious or untrusted. These new   show more ...  

techniques could potentially allow attackers to bypass operating system-level security measures without triggering warnings or pop-ups. Windows Smart App Control and SmartScreen When enabled, SAC replaces and disables Defender SmartScreen. Microsoft also exposes undocumented APIs for querying the trust level of files for SmartScreen and SAC, allowing researchers to develop utilities that display the trust of a file. Researchers from Elastic Labs studied reputation-based and LNK (shortcut) file-based techniques to bypass both systems and gain further access to devices. Exploiting Reputation Systems to Bypass SmartScreen One method to circumvent SAC involves signing malware with legitimate code-signing certificates. Attackers have increasingly obtained Extended Validation certificates, which require identity verification, by impersonating businesses. The SolarMarker threat group, for instance, has used over 100 unique signing certificates in their campaigns. [caption id="attachment_85481" align="alignnone" width="2800"] Source: https://www.elastic.co/security-labs[/caption] Another tactic, known as reputation hijacking, involves repurposing trusted applications to bypass security checks. Script hosts with foreign function interfaces, such as Lua and Node.js interpreters, are particularly vulnerable to this approach. Attackers can use these trusted applications to load and execute malicious code without triggering alerts. Reputation hijacking can be difficult to detect, as countless applications can be co-opted to carry out the technique. However, security teams can develop behavioral signatures to identify general categories of abused software. For example, these teams can look for common Lua or Node.js function names or modules in suspicious call stacks, or use local reputation to identify outliers in their environment for closer inspection. LNK File Vulnerability and Detection Strategies A significant discovery involves a bug in Windows' handling of LNK (shortcut) files. By crafting LNK files with non-standard target paths, attackers can bypass Mark of the Web (MotW) checks, effectively sidestepping SmartScreen and SAC protections. This vulnerability, which has existed for at least six years, allows for arbitrary code execution without security warnings. To counter these threats, security teams should implement multi-layered detection strategies. This includes cataloging and blocking known abused applications, developing behavioral signatures to identify suspicious activities, and closely monitoring downloaded files. For example, teams can create rules to detect common function names or modules associated with hijacked script hosts in call stacks. Additionally, focusing on local reputation systems can help identify outliers in the environment that warrant closer inspection. SmartScreen have a number of fundamental design weaknesses that can allow for initial access with no security warnings and minimal user interaction. Security teams should scrutinize downloads carefully in their detection stack and not rely solely on OS-native security features for protection in this area. The researchers single out in-memory evasion, persistence, credential access, enumeration, and lateral movement related behaviors as helpful for singling out reputation hijacking-based techniques in real scenarios.

The U.S. government sues TikTok for failing to safeguard the privacy of its young users - those under the age of 13. In a joint action, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed a civil lawsuit against TikTok Inc., ByteDance Ltd., and their affiliates in the U.S. District Court   show more ...  

for the Central District of California. The lawsuit alleges violations of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and its implementing regulations in connection with the popular TikTok app. COPPA safeguards the privacy of children under 13 by prohibiting website operators from knowingly collecting, using, or disclosing their personal information without verifiable parental consent. The law also mandates that operators delete children's data upon parental request. "For years, Defendants have knowingly allowed children under 13 to create and use TikTok accounts without their parents’ knowledge or consent, have collected extensive data from those children, and have failed to comply with parents’ requests to delete their children’s accounts and personal information." - DoJ and FTC Repeat Offender: TikTok Accused of Failing to Protect Children The complaint details that since 2019, TikTok has knowingly allowed children to create accounts on the regular platform, enabling them to share videos and messages with adults. This exposed them to extensive data collection and potentially inappropriate content. Additionally, the company allegedly collected personal information from children using "Kids Mode," a supposedly safer version of the app, without parental consent. Furthermore, the lawsuit claims that TikTok failed to honor requests from parents to delete their children's accounts and data. "The Department is deeply concerned by TikTok's ongoing collection and retention of children's data, defying a court order. This action aims to ensure TikTok upholds its responsibility to protect children's privacy rights," said Acting Associate Attorney General Benjamin Mizer. U.S. Government Sues TikTok for Failing to Follow Court Order Despite a prior court order requiring COPPA compliance, the complaint alleges that TikTok: Possessed weak internal procedures for identifying and removing children's accounts. Continued to collect and retain children's data. Exposed millions of children under 13 to potential risks. "TikTok's repeated violations of children's privacy threaten the safety of millions of children nationwide," FTC Chair Lina Khan said. "The FTC will continue to leverage its full authority to protect children online, especially as companies exploit increasingly sophisticated digital tools to track and profit from children's data." TikTok Could Be Made to Pay 'Bigger' Fine The lawsuit seeks civil penalties and injunctive relief to ensure TikTok fulfills its legal obligation to protect children's privacy and respects parents' efforts to safeguard their children online. Paul Bischoff, Consumer Privacy Advocate at Comparitech, compared this case to successful suits against Epic (Fortnite) and Google (YouTube). "Those companies allowed children under 13 to create accounts without parental consent and made money from ads targeted at those accounts, resulting in two of the largest COPPA fines in history. If the U.S. Justice Department is successful, TikTok's payout could be even bigger," Bischoff told The Cyber Express. "Let's be clear: This case is not about TikTok being a Chinese company or its relationship with China - the underlying reason that many politicians argue we should ban TikTok in the U.S. altogether. Unlike those unfounded claims that accuse TikTok of propaganda, censorship, and spying on behalf of the Chinese government, the Justice Department's case does not seem to be political. It's just enforcing the law." The DOJ's lawsuit came on the same day as the UK privacy watch dog sent notices to 11 social media and video streaming platforms for violating a similar "Children's Code" violation, per the UK's data protection laws that protect kids under the age of 13 years. The ICO, however, did not disclose which platforms were notified.

 Data Breach News

A significant security concern has arisen after a large number of email addresses were exposed online, allegedly scraped from security intelligence platform SOCRadar.io. The data dump, containing an estimated 332 million email addresses, was posted on a cybercrime forum by a threat actor known as Dominatrix, according   show more ...  

to Hackread. As per the post, the data was originally scraped by another actor, "USDoD," who has a history of involvement in previous data breaches. Details of the SOCRadar.io Data Scraping Incident The leaked data was reportedly extracted from "stealer logs and combolists," suggesting that malware infections played a role in the initial data collection. This indicates a broader issue of malware distribution and the subsequent exploitation of compromised systems. The data scraping incident, according to Hackread, took place in July 2024. The announcement on popular underground hacker forum called Breach Forums said that 14GB worth of CSV file containing only the email addresses aggregated from various data breaches was obtained. The forum user under the alias USDoD was initially selling the scraped data for $7,000 on 28 July 2024. But Dominatrix, who allegedly purchased the data from USDoD, made it public on August 3, stating: “Hello BreachForums Community, Today I have uploaded a SocRadar database for you to download, thanks for reading and enjoy! In July 2024, @USDoD scraped socradar.io extracting 332 million emails parsed from stealer logs and combolists. I have purchased the data to share with you all today.” [caption id="attachment_85632" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Source: Hackread[/caption] While not technically a data breach as it reportedly only involved email addresses and no passwords, the incident raises concerns for individuals and organizations whose email addresses may be included. This type of exposure can be used for malicious purposes such as: Phishing Attacks: Criminals can utilize the email list for large-scale phishing campaigns, attempting to trick recipients into revealing personal information or clicking on malicious links. Brute-Force Attacks: Hackers may use the email addresses to attempt unauthorized access to accounts on various platforms. Credential Stuffing: By comparing the emails with previously leaked data breaches containing passwords, attackers could potentially gain access to compromised accounts. Importance of Cybersecurity Measures This incident highlights the importance of strong cybersecurity practices for both individuals and organizations. Here are some key recommendations: Unique Passwords: Never use the same password for multiple accounts. Implement strong, unique passwords for each online service you use. Multi-Factor Authentication: Whenever possible, enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) as an additional layer of security for your accounts. MFA requires a second verification step beyond just a username and password. Vigilance: Be cautious of unsolicited emails, even if they appear to come from a familiar source. Do not click on suspicious links or attachments. As of this writing, SOCRadar.io has not issued an official statement regarding the incident. The cybersecurity community awaits clarification on the nature of the data scraping and any measures the company plans to take to prevent future occurrences.

In a bid to strengthen its defenses against the growing threat of cyberattacks, the Japanese government is considering a new measure that would require private-sector operators of critical infrastructure to report any incidents of cyber damage. One of the primary concerns driving the initiative is the reluctance of   show more ...  

businesses to report cyberattacks due to fears of potential negative impacts on their stock prices. This reluctance has hindered efforts to contain and mitigate the effects of cyberattacks This move aims to facilitate the rapid sharing of information to prevent the spread of cyberattacks to other businesses. Addressing Reluctance to Report Cybersecurity Incidents in Japan Government officials have expressed concern that businesses are often reluctant to report cyberattacks, fearing the potential impact on their stock prices. To address this issue, a panel of experts convened by the government is expected to outline the reporting requirements in an interim report shortly. In 2022, the government introduced a voluntary action plan on cybersecurity for critical infrastructure, encouraging businesses to report cyberattack damage without any legal obligations. However, with the proposed mandatory reporting requirements, the government hopes to create a culture of transparency and cooperation among businesses. The Japan Association of Corporate Executives, a major business lobby group, has been advocating for the government to make the reporting mandatory, recognizing the importance of a coordinated and proactive approach to cybersecurity. Mandatory Reporting for Critical Infrastructure The proposed requirements are expected to cover operators of infrastructure that could have a significant impact on people's lives and economic activity in the event of a cyberattack. The list of critical infrastructure includes sectors such as telecommunications, finance, airports, and ports, as outlined in the government's economic security promotion law. Additionally, the government's cybersecurity task force has designated 15 industries, including government and administrative services, as well as the medical sector, as critical infrastructure. Strengthening Japan's Cybersecurity Measures This move by the Japanese government is a significant step toward bolstering the country's cybersecurity measures. By mandating the reporting of cyberattack incidents, the government aims to facilitate the rapid sharing of information, enabling other businesses to take preventive actions and mitigate the potential spread of such attacks. The government's new plan aims to transform previous encouragement to report cybersecurity attacks on important infrastructure and businesses into specific legal obligations. By fostering transparency and information-sharing, the government aims to empower businesses within the private sector to better protect themselves and their customers from the devastating effects of cyberattacks.

As organizations continue to navigate the complexities of digital transformation, the attack surface has grown exponentially, making attack surface management an increasingly important priority for managing risk. The stakes are high, with cyberattacks growing in frequency and sophistication, and the financial toll on   show more ...  

businesses reaching unprecedented levels. In this article, we will explore the critical importance of attack surface management from the perspective of chief financial officers (CFOs) and financial risk management. Attack Surface Management for CFOs Attack surface management (ASM) is a comprehensive cybersecurity approach that involves mapping and analyzing all potential points of entry for malicious actors into an organization's IT ecosystem. By gaining an in-depth understanding of their attack surface, companies can develop a robust defense strategy that minimizes exposure to cyber threats. ASM involves identifying known and unknown assets, detecting vulnerabilities, and remediating risks to prevent attacks - important practices that can help CFOs reduce organizational risk. Financial Services Sector's Vulnerability to Cyber Threats The financial services sector is one prime target for cyber attackers, as these organizations manage vast amounts of sensitive data and funds. The larger and more distributed the organization, the more extensive its attack surface, making it more vulnerable to unauthorized access. Even smaller financial institutions are at risk due to their often less robust security measures and sensitive holdings and data. Investing in attack surface management training for security teams is a crucial investment for financial institutions. According to the IMF’s Global Financial Stability Report, over the the past two decades, nearly one-fifth of cyber incidents reported had impacted the international financial sector, leading to $12 billion in direct losses to financial institutions, and $2.5 billion estimated direct losses since 2020. Even smaller financial institutions are at risk due to their often less robust security measures. Consumers are becoming more aware of the growing threat to organizations and their data, making it essential for all institutions, not just those in high-risk sectors, to address their security weaknesses to build trust and maintain lasting customer relationships. Attack Surface Management Strategies for CFOs Growing risk for all organizations requires a scalable security strategy that can adapt to changing capacity. ASM is becoming a favored cybersecurity management approach from the CFO perspective, as it provides an active and comprehensive asset inventory of both internal and external assets that contain, transmit, or process data. ASM detects vulnerabilities as they appear, enabling companies to make informed, risk-based security decisions and optimizing enterprise IT security. ASM involves: Asset Discovery: Detecting and geographically locating active and inactive assets, both known and unknown, using a range of open-source intelligence (OSINT) techniques. Securing Cloud and Third-Party Services: According to a SANS survey on attack surface and visibility, 94% of respondents reported the use of cloud services at least occasionally, and 90% report the use of third-party services and affiliates in their enterprise. CFOs should make sure to have a current list of cloud assets and trusted third-party systems, with regularly scheduled updates and reports on third-party risk management (TPRM). Vulnerability Discovery: Assessing security posture using an automated approach speeds detection of potential risks, along with regular scanning to evaluate digital infrastructure and networks for known vulnerabilities. Risk Mitigation: Shields the organization from attacks by remediating vulnerabilities and providing granular insights to make informed security decisions. Amid rising cyber threats, CFOs must prioritize the optimization of IT infrastructure along with the adoption of attack surface management strategies. By gaining visibility into their attack surface and proactively addressing vulnerabilities through the use of attack surface management tools like Cyble Attack Surface Management, CFOs can reduce financial risk by enhancing their security posture, protecting their digital assets, and maintaining the trust of their customers.

CrowdStrike today released its Root Cause Analysis (RCA) of the faulty software update that crippled 8.5 million Windows machines on July 19, and also outlined changes it will make in the wake of the devastating outage. The 12-page CrowdStrike Root Cause Analysis report provides a deeper explanation than   show more ...  

CrowdStrike’s Preliminary Post-Incident Review (PIR) that was released five days after the massive global outage that could lead to $15 billion in largely uncovered losses for CrowdStrike customers. The outage has led to shareholder and customer legal action – and threats and counterthreats between CrowdStrike and Delta Airlines over the airline’s lengthy recovery from the outage, which took yet another turn today when Microsoft joined the fray. CrowdStrike Root Cause Analysis Details Extra Input Parameter Field One interesting new revelation in the root cause report is that the initial cause of the error occurred back in February when CrowdStrike released sensor version 7.11, which included a new Template Type for Windows interprocess communication (IPC) mechanisms. IPC Template Instances are delivered as Rapid Response Content to sensors via a corresponding Channel File numbered 291. The new IPC Template Type defined 21 input parameter fields, but the integration code that invoked the Content Interpreter with Channel File 291’s Template Instances supplied only 20 input values to match against. The parameter count mismatch “evaded multiple layers of build validation and testing,” CrowdStrike said, due in part to the use of wildcard matching criteria for the 21st input during testing and in the initial IPC Template Instances. On July 19, two additional IPC Template Instances were deployed, one of which introduced a non-wildcard matching criterion for the 21st input parameter. “These new Template Instances resulted in a new version of Channel File 291 that would now require the sensor to inspect the 21st input parameter,” CrowdStrike said. “Until this channel file was delivered to sensors, no IPC Template Instances in previous channel versions had made use of the 21st input parameter field. The Content Validator evaluated the new Template Instances, but based its assessment on the expectation that the IPC Template Type would be provided with 21 inputs. “Sensors that received the new version of Channel File 291 carrying the problematic content were exposed to a latent out-of-bounds read issue in the Content Interpreter. At the next IPC notification from the operating system, the new IPC Template Instances were evaluated, specifying a comparison against the 21st input value. The Content Interpreter expected only 20 values. Therefore, the attempt to access the 21st value produced an out-of-bounds memory read beyond the end of the input data array and resulted in a system crash.” CrowdStrike pledged a half-dozen changes in the wake of the global outage: Validating the number of input fields in the Template Type at sensor compile time Correcting for a runtime array bounds check that was missing for Content Interpreter input fields on Channel File 291 Template Type testing covering a wider variety of matching criteria Template Instance validation expanding to include testing within the Content Interpreter Staged deployment for template instances, including customer control over rollout Windows Kernel Driver Usage Addressed CrowdStrike also noted that it moves kernel driver functions to less-sensitive user space as those capabilities evolve. “As new versions of Windows introduce support for performing more of these security functions in user space, CrowdStrike updates its agent to utilize this support,” the company said. “Significant work remains for the Windows ecosystem to support a robust security product that doesn’t rely on a kernel driver for at least some of its functionality. We are committed to working directly with Microsoft on an ongoing basis as Windows continues to add more support for security product needs in user space.” Kurtz Apologizes as Microsoft Enters Delta Battle CrowdStrike also released a statement from CEO and founder George Kurtz on the outage remediation page in conjunction with the report’s release. “We are deeply sorry for the impact this had on you,” says the statement from Kurtz. “Nothing is more important than regaining your trust and confidence. Since our founding, we have always put customer protection at the forefront. This has been our North Star, and it continues to be our focus every single day.” But before the incident is completely behind the company, a lengthy legal battle may yet play out. Microsoft entered the fray today, saying that Delta’s longer outage than its peers appeared to be due to non-Microsoft systems. “In fact, it is rapidly becoming apparent that Delta likely refused Microsoft's help because the IT systems it was most having trouble restoring – its crew-tracking and scheduling system – was being serviced by other technology providers, such as IBM, because it runs on those providers' systems, and not Microsoft Windows or Azure,” attorney Mark Cheffo wrote to Delta’s lawyers on behalf of Microsoft. “Microsoft empathizes with Delta and its customers regarding the impact of the CrowdStrike incident. But your letter and Delta’s public comments are incomplete, false, misleading, and damaging to Microsoft and its reputation,” Cheffo said, noting the company will “vigorously defend itself in any litigation if Delta chooses to pursue that path.”
