Adobe Flash Bug | Spy On The Webcams of Your Website Visitors

A slight variation of a previously designed clickjacking attack that used a Adobe Flash vulnerability has once again made it possible for website administrators to surreptitiously spy on their visitors by turning on the user's computer webcam and microphone.

It works in all versions of Adobe Flash that the researcher have tested . He’ve confirmed that it works in the Firefox and Safari for Mac browsers. Use one of those if you check out the live demo. There’s a weird CSS opacity bug in most other browsers (Chrome for Mac and most browsers on Windows/Linux).

Clickjacking + Adobe Flash = Sad Times!

This attack works by using a neat variation of the normal clickjacking technique that spammers and other bad people are using in the wild right now. For the uninitiated:

Combine clickjacking with the Adobe Flash Player Setting Manager pageand you have a recipe for some sad times.

How the attack works ?

Instead of iframing the whole settings page (which contains the framebusting code), Just  iframe the settings SWF file. This  bypasses the framebusting JavaScript code, since we don’t load the whole page — just the remote .SWF file. I was really surprised to find out that this actually works!

 A bunch of clickjacking attacks in the wild,  never any attacks where the attacker iframes a SWF file from a remote domain to clickjack it — let alone a .SWF file as important as one that controls access to your webcam and mic!

The problem here is the Flash Player Setting Manager, this inheritance from Macromedia might be the Flash Player security Achilles heel.

Apache mod_proxy Proof of Concept (CVE-2011-3368)

A recent Apache vulnerability has been made public whereby an attacker could gain unauthorised access to content in the DMZ network:

Description
The mod_proxy module in the Apache HTTP Server 1.3.x through 1.3.42, 2.0.x through 2.0.64, and 2.2.x through 2.2.21 does not properly interact with use of (1) RewriteRule and (2) ProxyPassMatch pattern matches for configuration of a reverse proxy, which allows remote attackers to send requests to intranet servers via a malformed URI containing an initial @ (at sign) character.

SECFORCE has developed a proof of concept for this vulnerability .The script exploits the vulnerability and allows the user to retrieve arbitrary known files from the DMZ. The tool can also be used to perform a port scan of the web server using the Apache proxy functionality, and therefore bypassing any firewall. Click here to download the POC.


Usage :- 

rmacros@laptop2: python apache_proxy_scanner.py

CVE-2011-3368 proof of concept by Rodrigo Marcos
http://www.secforce.co.uk
usage():
python apache_scan.py [options]
 [options]
    -r: Remote Apache host
    -p: Remote Apache port (default is 80)
    -u: URL on the remote web server (default is /)
    -d: Host in the DMZ (default is 127.0.0.1)
    -e: Port in the DMZ (enables 'single port scan')
    -g: GET request to the host in the DMZ (default is /)
    -h: Help page
examples:
 - Port scan of the remote host
    python apache_scan.py -r www.example.com -u /img/test.gif
 - Port scan of a host in the DMZ
    python apache_scan.py -r www.example.com -u /img/test.gif
 -d internalhost.local
- Retrieve a resource from a host in the DMZ
    python apache_scan.py -r www.example.com -u /img/test.gif
 -d internalhost.local -e 80 -g /accounts/index.html

The following screenshot shows the result of the command above:

MSN.Com Vulnerable to XSS

TeamDX discovered XSS Vulnerability in MSN.Com. The Vulnerable Link here.  XSS is a computer security vulnerability that helps attackers to inject client-side script into web pages viewed by other users. 

The C7 Crew found New XSS Vulnerability on Sony PlayStation

The C7 crew found new XSS vulnerability on Sony playstation. That means Sony is still not safe. Why cant they spend some bucks to fix all these bugs? Sony was hacked more than 20 times last month and this shows that Sony is still not secure and hackable.
