Abusing Unsafe Defaults in Active Directory Domain Services: A Real-World Case Study
This past July, Kevin Robertson from NetSPI released a blog post entitled, “Beyond LLMNR/NBNS Spoofing – Exploiting Active Directory-Integrated DNS,” which introduced a new technique (to us at least) targeting weak default access control in Active Directory Domain Services. At GoSecure, since most of our engagements require some level of Active Directory security assessment, we followed our interest and decided to find a way to reliably exploit it.
RDP Man-in-the-Middle – Smile! You’re on Camera
As part of our four-month internship at GoSecure, we chose to work on creating a Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) honeypot. To achieve this, we used a Linux server with an RDP man-in-the-middle (MITM) program that redirects traffic to a real Windows Server.
Summary of Statistics Canada’s Survey on Cyber Security and Cybercrime
If there is one thing that all cyber security professionals agree on is how data and statistics on cybersecurity and cybercrime are misleading and unreliable. This is unsurprising considering that most statistics created, until now, came from the cybersecurity industry itself. By being economically motivated at selling security products, this industry has an unequivocal bias.
The Supply Chain behind the Market for Fake “Likes”
In the past years, there has been increasing awareness by the public and policy makers on the potential harm that social network manipulation can produce. Yet, most researchers have looked at the front end of the problem: developing algorithms to flag fake accounts on social networks and suspend them.
Large Scale Vulnerability Scanning with Jenkins
Find Security Bugs can often uncover interesting findings that may lead to the discovery of critical vulnerabilities. Back in May, we published on this blog two vulnerabilities in components of Spring, a Java web framework, using this tool. However, the process of using Find Security Bugs can be a little bit tedious to unseasoned Java users. Also, the process of analyzing compiled code and triaging the findings needed improvements. Here is the solution that was built to find vulnerabilities at scale.
