  • Zero-Day Vulnerability in Desktop Window Manager (CVE-2021-28310) Used in the Wild | Securelist
    4/14/2021 Zero-day vulnerability in Desktop Window Manager (CVE-2021-28310) used in the wild | Securelist Zero-day vulnerability in Desktop Window Manager (CVE-2021-28310) used in the wild securelist.com/zero-day-vulnerability-in-desktop-window-manager-cve-2021-28310-used-in-the-wild/101898 While analyzing the CVE-2021-1732 exploit originally discovered by the DBAPPSecurity Threat Intelligence Center and used by the BITTER APT group, we discovered another zero-day exploit we believe is linked to the same actor. We reported this new exploit to Microsoft in February and after confirmation that it is indeed a zero-day, it received the designation CVE-2021-28310. Microsoft released a patch to this vulnerability as a part of its April security updates. We believe this exploit is used in the wild, potentially by several threat actors. It is an escalation of privilege (EoP) exploit that is likely used together with other browser exploits to escape sandboxes or get system privileges for further access. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to capture a full chain, so we don’t know if the exploit is used with another browser zero-day, or coupled with known, patched vulnerabilities. The exploit was initially identified by our advanced exploit prevention technology and related detection records. In fact, over the past few years, we have built a multitude of exploit protection technologies into our products that have detected several zero-days, proving their effectiveness time and again. We will continue to improve defenses for our users by enhancing technologies and working with third-party vendors to patch vulnerabilities, making the internet more secure for everyone.

  • Appendix a – Microsoft Windows
    Revision 4.6.0 (February 23, 2021) Appendix A – Microsoft Windows Please Read and Heed Appendix Z in order to properly configure RingCentral Meetings. Microsoft Windows, by default, resets the DSCP value of all transmitted packets to BestEffort (0). You must take positive action forcing Windows to tag RingCentral traffic with proper DSCP values. Please note that the traffic going TO RingCentral will be marked, but you must implement proper QoS in the remainder of your network to take advantage of the markings and to set the DSCP values on return traffic as it ingresses your network. This is only one element of a proper QoS implementation. This is particularly critical if you are using WiFi. Wireless Access Points depend on the DSCP marking of traffic in order to enable WMM prioritization of voice/video traffic. Without this marking a busy wireless network will not support voice / video traffic effectively. A special PowerShell script has been developed to automatically generate the QoS policy rules, removing the tedious task of manually entering the large quantity of individual rules. The script supports two action variants based on the Windows environment. 1. Windows 10 clients that are not part of a domain (must be run on each client machine using the 'Administrator' account). All required elements if a NetQosPolicy are generated. The script must be executed on each client computer!!! 2. Domain-based Windows networks (must be run on a domain controller using the 'Administrator' account). A default group QoS policy will be generated. The script should only be executed once for the entire domain.

  • Comparing OLE DB and ODBC This Document Compares the Basic Features of OLE DB to the Basic Features of ODBC (Open Database Connectivity)
    Comparing OLE DB and ODBC This document compares the basic features of OLE DB to the basic features of ODBC (Open Database Connectivity). It is intended to help clarify when to use one over the other. Introduction OLE DB and ODBC are both specifications created by Microsoft to address universal data access. Each is intended as an industry standard that will make access between one vendor's data store and another vendor's data consumer seamless. Microsoft's definition of OLE DB is a strategic system-level programming interface to data across the organization. OLE DB is an open specification designed to build on the success of ODBC by providing an open standard for accessing all kinds of data. And the definition of ODBC is an industry standard and a component of Microsoft® Windows® Open Services Architecture (WOSA). The ODBC interface makes it possible for applications to access data from a variety of database management systems (DBMSs). ODBC permits maximum interoperability—an application can access data in diverse DBMSs through a single interface. Furthermore, that application will be independent of any DBMS from which it accesses data. Users of the application can add software components called drivers, which create an interface between an application and a specific DBMS. The two primary differences between the two are • OLE DB is a component based specification and ODBC is a procedural based specification • SQL is the core of accessing data using ODBC but just one of the means of data access through OLE DB • ODBC is constrained to relational data stores; OLE DB supports all forms of data stores (relational, hierarchical, etc) In general, OLE DB provides a richer and more flexible interface for data access because it is not tightly bound to a command syntax (like SQL in the case of ODBC).
