  • Cracking the Lens: Targeting HTTP's Hidden Attack Surface
    Cracking the Lens: Targeting HTTP's Hidden Attack Surface James Kettle - [email protected] - @albinowax Modern websites are browsed through a lens of transparent systems built to enhance performance, extract analytics and supply numerous additional services. This almost invisible attack surface has been largely overlooked for years. In this paper, I'll show how to use malformed requests and esoteric headers to coax these systems into revealing themselves and opening gateways into our victim's networks. I'll share how by combining these techniques with a little Bash I was able to thoroughly perforate DoD networks, trivially earn over $30k in vulnerability bounties, and accidentally exploit my own ISP. While deconstructing the damage, I'll also showcase several hidden systems it unveiled, including not only covert request interception by the UK's largest ISP, but a substantially more suspicious Colombian ISP, a confused Tor backend, and a system that enabled reflected XSS to be escalated into SSRF. You'll also learn strategies to unblinker blind SSRF using exploit chains and caching mechanisms. Finally, to further drag these systems out into the light, I'll release Collaborator Everywhere - an open source Burp Suite extension which augments your web traffic with a selection of the best techniques to harvest leads from cooperative websites. Outline Introduction Methodology Listening Research Pipeline Scaling Up Misrouting Requests Invalid Host Investigating Intent - BT Investigating Intent - Metrotel Input Permutation Host Override Ambiguous Requests Breaking Expectations Tunnels Targeting Auxiliary Systems Gathering Information Remote Client Exploits Preemptive Caching Conclusion Introduction Whether it's ShellShock, StageFright or ImageTragick, the discovery of a serious vulnerability in an overlooked chunk of attack surface is often followed by numerous similar issues.

  • Distro Notes This Document Was Revised on March 9, 2011
    Distro Notes This document was revised on March 9, 2011. Older versions can be discarded. 1. Overview. This document discusses a Linux distro that's under construction. Comments are welcome. The distro is portable; most versions run directly from pocket-size media (thumbdrives, 3" Mini-DVDs, etc.). It's useful for multimedia tasks, software development, Internet file or site downloads, office work, and system maintenance. Some versions also provide a large collection of games (including lightweight that even people who "don't play games" may find diverting). Target: This distro is aimed at UNIX and MS-Windows CLI developers, system administrators, multimedia hobbyists, and people with an interest in chess (there's 11 chess engines) and lightweight games in general. Desktop: There's a lightweight desktop. The desktop doesn't include GNOME or KDE eye candy (dancing icons, 3D workspaces, etc.) but it gets the job done and does support a few special features, including remote access and single-instance support. Windows clones: This distro resembles old versions of MS-Windows visually, it includes some MS-Windows work-alike programs, and it runs MS-Windows programs. However, it's not aimed at MS-Windows people. Former MS-Windows users should try PCLinuxOS and Ubuntu instead (these are polished Windows-style distros). That said, this distro offers somes advantages over Windows-style distros: it's faster, in some cases; it requires less memory (*); it includes tools, collections, and databases that are generally unavailable or poorly maintained elsewhere; and you can run it from a Flash device that fits on a keychain.

P. Vinothkumar P. Nilavarasan G. S. [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] SRM Institute of Science and Technology, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Ramapuram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu Ramapuram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu Ramapuram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu Sai Harshith Kumar S. Naveen P. [email protected] [email protected] SRM Institute of Science and Technology, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Ramapuram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu Ramapuram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu ABSTRACT Backdoors are one of the most complicated types of Android malware. A normal backdoor carries out its functionalities such as installing itself into the system directory, disabling system apps, or gaining access to app’s data, to steal and upload sensitive info, download and ask to install applications and set up mobile botnets when setting proper Android permissions. This project focus on how Android devices are hacked using backdoors and how they can be stopped from doing so. The backdoor application when installed and turned on the mobile allows an attacker to read, write and modify the data. Due to Backdoor attacks Confidentiality, Integrity, and Accountability of the information security are lost. When the application is installed on the victim's mobile and the victim opens the application it creates the meter-preter session which permits the attacker to access functions like webcam, contacts, read SMS, send SMS, read call log, write call log, access storage, install applications.
