As with most sizable organizations it is near impossible to uninstall or completely disable Java which sent us on a hunt for a feasible way to contain Java based attacks. What we came up with was restricting it to run only in trusted zones. This worked for APPLET tags when encountered in IE.
What this does is block any applet from running if it is not part of a trusted internet zone. First thing is to identify all the internal trusted zones and add them. Next allow the user to trust their own zones. Most of the time it seemed they knew when there was an applet they wanted to run.

Active Defense: Taking The Fight To Attackers: Should We?
We've all heard the term "Hacking Back". We all have mixed feelings about this term. Lets be clear, its not about feelings! The revenge-based "hacking back" was doomed for failure from the beginning. On the flip side, we're losing the battle against attackers on many fronts. What can we do? Setting traps, tracking attackers, luring them into areas of the network and systems deemed "honeypots" is on the table, or is it? What are the legal ramifications to this activity?

Ok, on to the stories of the week with Paul, Larry, Allison and Jack. What'd you do this summer? Disney? Six Flags? Big Data Land? After much chatter in the Twittersphere (logged here by Space Rogue) last week, Jack brings up the "Popping Penguins" article from Forbes. The article talks about this super vulnerable program that is going to be the downfall of Linux. It's called bash. Would you believe you can use bash to start a listener on your machine and then send some commands over telnet to have someone else's machine connect back to you? Uh oh. Also, beware of another application, one that runs from the desktop that lets you connect to other computers and pull down files from a machine you don't own. Yeah, that one's called a browser. Sounds equally dangerous, no? Should we uninstall bash as a security measure?
Larry threw out there an article on 5 WiFi security myths to abandon. But Larry mentioned that some of these might not actually be very new. Things like don't hide SSID as some newer systems will see them anyway and digging deeper to find the SSID isn't that hard. Plus, if its owner took the steps to hide it, wouldn't that pique your interest that there may be something good running there? Sending out a weak signal may sound like a good idea as if someone can't reach it, they can't connect to it, right? But all that does is annoys its intended users and if someone really wants to get on the network, they'll simply use an antenna. The article ends with the non-myth that if you truly want WiFi security, make sure you use good encryption and a strong password. Simple, eh?
Jack was looking forward to going on a good patch rant. He and Paul have done webinars about really stretching things and getting your patch cycle down to five days from the day of release. Jack said during the good old days, he'd challenge himself to getting his systems patched within 72 hours. Patch Tuesday was to be completed by Friday. In this article by Dr. Anton Chuvakin, he does indicate how it would be good for some big corporations to get their patch cycle down from 90 days to 30 days, but then argues if the bad guys only need 3, then what's the point of all that effort? Jack's feeling is that even the 30 days should be enough in many cases, but it's often politics and other "can't do" attitudes that prevent it from happening. Why is that? Get those patches in place people!
One quick note on a tangent the team went off on. In their experience as pentesters, Larry and Paul mention that all to often the way they end up pwning a system is through some machine that no one knew was running, with services that no one knew were running, with an account that no one knows why it still exists. Do you have a good inventory of where your data is? What machines are in your data center? What services and accounts are on each? If those are gold to a pentester, who has to respect a customer's defined scope, guess what a malicious user is going to do to your network.
Paul's looking for advice on what new phone he should get? Android? iPhone? What say you? Tweet him up with your suggestion at @pauldotcom
Remember that Yahoo bug bounty program? $12.50 credit toward the Yahoo store? A little update from the rants and ridicule from last week, it was actually one guy , Ramses Martinez, Director, Yahoo Paranoids, who was very appreciative of people reporting bugs and was paying them out of pocket. He would send researchers a Yahoo tshirt but would then find out the recipient already had multiple Yahoo shirts. Martinez's idea then was to give the reporter a credit in the Yahoo store matching the value of the shirt, our of his own pocket. Since the uproar, Yahoo has installed its own bug bounty program and Martinez is no longer paying for the reports himself. Good on ya, Yahoo and even better, thank you Ramses Martinez for caring about security.
Speaking of bug bounties, Google has started a bug bounty program for open source software. Repeat that, it's not just Google software that they're paying bounties for, it's software that there really is no organization behind and normally count on volunteers to fix things. Now Google is putting their money behind that effort. As Allison mentions, there hasn't ever been any motivation for anyone to report bugs and now there is.
estrada-sm.jpgPaunch, the alleged author of the Blackhole exploit kit was arrested in Russia last week. Or at least we think so. Some unconfirmed reports have indicated this and Blackhole has not been updated since this time. Or maybe the guy just decided to take an extended vacation and threw the story out there himself. Either way, it might be time for Evil Bob to find a new exploit kit. (Note: Erik Estrada is not "Paunch", he's Ponch, as in Frank Poncharello)
Microsoft has a new disk cleanup where it removes all the old and outdated updates. Jack gained more than 6 GB of space after running the cleanup but a word of caution, it take a concerning long time for the next reboot. You might think you killed your computer but no, it really does take that long.
Check out "Tails" a security and privacy distribution and let us know what you think. Is it good? What makes it a better choice than some others? Though the number of security updates in recent versions is a little concerning. Yeah, I get it that it's good that security holes are fixed and that it's to software that the distro is including. But it's just a little concerning when you pitch it as being for security and privacy yet there are piles of security updates. It makes me wonder just how secure it is and whether it's any better than a secure version of your favorite distribution anyway. But you can certainly let me know and I'll post some comments from you in upcoming week. Tweet me at @plaverty9
There was also some discussion on iOS7 image identification, Larry has a colleague at Inguardians who wrote up an intro to using rfcat and Jack suggests taking a deeper look for yourself before jumping into the patch for MS13-81 and whether your system needs it. If it does, test thoroughly. It's got some deep stuff on it.

We've got a good one for you this week. Paul and Jack were in studio we were treated with a visit from the DerbyCon organizers. Dave "Rel1k" Kennedy, Adrian "Irongeek" Crenshaw, Martin "PureHate_" Bos and Nick "Nick8ch" Hitchcock. Derby is one of those cons that that sells out within minutes or less, so they're surely not here to sell tickets for the September 25-29th even in Louisville, Kentucky. Listen to find out all the great things they have in store for this year's event. They've expanded with six tracks this year, two nights of big events and will have The Crystal Method playing on Saturday night! Dave also mentioned that his choice of Weird Al Yankovic got vetoed, but if I had any kind of vote, I'd love to see Al. In addition to some of the best talks on the planet, you'll see some games such as "Are You Smarter Than a CISSP?" and "Whose Slide Is It Anyway?" One of the other great things about DerbyCon is they make many, if not all of the videos available for people to view, in near real time, thanks to the kickass video guy Adrian.
Then on to the stories. Talking with the Derby guys is always so much fun, and with the weekly Stogie Geeks podcast immediately after, there wasn't much time left for stories. Paul and Jack got into Marissa Mayer not locking her iPhone and people trying to board commercial aircraft with hand grenades. Yeah. According to the article, TSA found 83 people with hand grenades in either their carry-on or checked luggage. But when we dig a little deeper in the article, we see those 83 also included "The majority of these grenades were inert, replica, or novelty items". The basically took away toys. I guess that sounds silly at first until you figure the hassle someone could cause by pulling out a toy but real-looking grenade mid-flight. Who's going to confirm that it's just a toy? It'd make for one heckuva stressful flight. So leave your grenades at home.
The only other story the guys talked about was Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer and how she avoids the hassle of locking her iPhone with a passcode. The article is an interesting one where one side wonders why she takes mobile security so casually? If hers fell into the wrong hands, first imagine the phishing that someone could pull off. But also what kind of trove of data is available on there from upcoming plans at Yahoo! (a publicly traded company) to private email conversations with other executives at the company. But then the other side wonders if the security advice for Mayer has the same level of appropriateness as for an average user. Maybe Mayer takes better physical precautions with her iPhone than a typical 16 year old high school student. Is her point valid that the extra step of entering a passcode isn't worth the ease of getting into her device many times a day to conduct business? Seems like an interesting question at least.

Have you heard of those scam phone calls from "Windows" where the person on the other end of the phone claims to know there's a problem with your computer ("Is it running more slowly lately?") and they even have you test it out by running some commands and referring to common files as viruses. Then they're so friendly that if you simply go to their web site and download a couple files, they'll clean it all up for you. Maybe one of the worst people they could possibly call would be the head guy at Black Hills Information Security, John Strand. Yep, and John was only too happy to give them just enough rope to hang themselves. Listen along for how John was also able to irritate the scammers.
Then we tried to get going on the stories of the week and were off to a great start but very quickly got derailed with a story from Australia. Apparently the Australian government is looking to put a filter on the internet in their country that would completely block all perceived porn sites. If someone wants to be able to access porn web sites from inside Australia, they'd need to "opt out" of the filter by simply contacting the government. What could possibly go wrong with this idea? I'm certain that there wouldn't be any privacy issues whatsoever. Additionally, wasn't the internet basically invented for the purpose of porn consumption? Ok, back to the rest of the stories discussed.
Remember a few weeks ago when we talked about a scumbag who intruded upon a family through their baby monitor and was able to shout at the baby and parents through the monitor. Well, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has slapped down a manufacturer of different brand of baby monitor and said they may no longer market their product as being "secure" until they fix these flaws. The flaws being that they say the feeds are private while anyone can view them on the internet at least in part because the authentication from the internet is clear-text and needs to be encrypted. Here we are already seeing where it seems like a great idea for manufacturers to internetify their product but don't completely understand all aspects of that or at least don't understand basic security needs. I don't know which is the chicken and which is the egg yet, but with the promise of IPv6, we're going to eventually see just about everything we own trying to have some sort of presence on the internet and these basic security precautions will need to be met.
Allison alerted us to the fact that Burp Suite got an upgrade this week. I'm constantly amazed at how much Burp can do especially when you consider the $300 price. Sure, there's also ZAP available from OWASP for even cheaper (free) but I think Burp is one of those tools that just about everyone uses because of its awesomeness. If I had to pick out just one of the new features, I'd mention the "Plug 'n Hack". According to Portswigger: "This enables faster configuration of the browser to work with Burp, by automatically configuring the browser to use Burp as its proxy, and installing Burp's CA certificate in the browser."
We also found out more details this week about another trojan called FinFisher by Gamma. The existence of FinFisher had been previously revealed but in a presentation by Mikko Hypponen, he talked about some of the things that the tool can do, including cracking WPA1 and WPA2, decrypting common email sites and even copying over a whole drive encrypted with TrueCrypt via a USB stick. Reportedly, the tool had only been available to governments in order to conduct their own national intelligence, but by now there's no way of knowing whether this has slipped out into the wild and in the hands of just anyone.
At Black Hat this year, Mike Shema from Qualys talked about a new way to possibly prevent CSRF. As we've seen in the past, the only way to reliably prevent the attack is to place a token in the action and have the server validate that token. This requires that the developer of the application understand CSRF and understand an API for creating the token, and to also implement it properly. If you're in the training or penetration testing business, this sounds like a great thing for job security. However there are millions of developers worldwide and training all of them may take a while. Heck, look at how prevalent much simpler attacks like SQL injection and Cross Site Scripting are. Do we really think that we'll be able to "train away" CSRF? This is where Shema has the idea of "Session Origin Security" and put the token in the browser. Now instead of training millions of developers, we simply get about five browser developers to jump on board. But the gang was a little skeptical about other plugins to work around this as well as breaking valid sessions and backward compatibility. We also wondered whether it may make more sense to allow the browser to choose whether it wants the CSRF protection and turn it on by default and let the user turn it off if there's a good reason to. These all seem to be questions that Shema and his team are looking into.
Jack told us about a post from Gunnar Peterson and the "Five Guys Burgers Method of Security". I don't think it means where it's so good for the first ten minutes and then you feel like crap about it for the next few hours. It's the idea that when you go to a Five Guys (and if you haven't yet, you should) they have two things, burgers and fries. They do these two things exceptionally well. They haven't morphed into also being a chicken place, and a fish place and a milkshake place and a coffee place and then letting the overall quality slip. They are focused on doing their two things and doing them extremely well. And I wondered if this is where so many in the security industry get frustrated and eventually burned out. As John brought up, the frustration often comes when there is so much compliance and documentation required, which yeah, I can see that as well. Who likes checking boxes and meeting with guys in ties to explain how you meet the PII, PCI, SOX and whatever other acronyms? I also wonder if there's also frustration in that we're hired to be "the security person" and we have areas that we're good at and enjoy. Whether that's network security, mobile security, web security or whichever. But due to budgets and many other reasons, we are expected to be experts in all areas, much unlike Five Guys. The Five Guys philosophy is if you want a great chicken sandwich, go to a chicken place. If you want a great milkshake, go to a milkshake joint. However in our jobs, we are the burgers and fries and chicken and fish and milkshakes and we're expected to be perfect at all of them. Anyway, it's an interesting take.
Do you have a Web site? No? Ok, then you're probably safe. Robert "Rsnake" Hansen put together an infographic about all the different things that you need to worry about today when securing your web site. It started out as a joke but then got a bit too close to reality and finally just got head-shakingly scary.
Finally, if you haven't already, check to see if your web site is "locked." Simply do a whois on your site and see if you have at a minimum a status of "ClientTransferProhibited." Some have said the recent NY Times hack was able to happen because the domain was not locked and the Syrian Electronic Army (SEA) was able to get the DNS credentials from someone and then change the DNS records to their own server. But if your DNS is locked, it'll take a bit more work to make the updates. Your registrar will go through additional validation steps before the DNS records are updated. This is likely enough that if someone is looking to hijack web sites, they'll realize yours isn't worth the both and move on to an easier target. With Congress possibly authorizing an attack on Syria and with the twelfth anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks upcoming, it would not be surprising to see another round of attacks on web infrastructure. So take this very easy step and protect your site.

The show was missing its usual sunshine and unicorns as Jack was unable to attend the show but fear not, Paul and Larry took us all through the stories of the week!
First, Larry found an article telling us why we should never trust geolocation values. The article talks about how the major geolocators (Google and Apple) will keep a database of where wifi hotspots exist and their mapping systems use these known values. But what if one of those "known values" moves? What if a hotspot that was in downtown Providence gets moved to Paris? We'd probably have another person drive their car into the ocean! But the part that Larry is talking about that he'd like to get is actually the reverse. Rather than knowing where the hotspots are and get an address back, have a way to submit the address and get a list of known hotspots in the area.
Stop us if you've heard this one before...there's a Java 0-day in the wild. Well, at least this one was for Java 6. Worried about how to remedy this? Wondering when the patch will be released? Well, it kind of has, it's called "upgrade to Java 7" which then throws a gray area into the whole "it's a 0-day" thing.
Ok, so here is the reason that we listen to the stories of the week. The experience that Paul and Larry have in the business is priceless in itself so when a story can spin off into an interesting story from the field, it's worth *at least* what you pay for the show. Paul tells us about WebAntix, a shell script that someone wrote that uses a Nessus NBE to take a list of URLs and go take a screenshot of each site and create a web site with those screenshots. Really useful on a pentest, right? Paul also mentions how Tim (@LaNMaSteR53) had written something similar called Peeping Tom. But what got spurred on here is Larry's story about a pentest that he was on. He was using a tool to spider through the client's site and realizing it was going to take a while, he went to lunch. In the meantime, the tool hit a page that it couldn't authenticate into. The tool didn't know when to quit and it would continue to try the page, failing each time. With each failure, a new log entry was created. However the company had a log watcher that would send an email to many people on each individual failed auth. 1.2 million emails later, the Exchange server was dead.
There's also this BYOD thing. Employers are wrestling with this problem in how they deal with employees bringing in their own laptops, mobile devices, tablets and who knows what else. Paul talks about how back in the days when Jack was probably only middle-aged, you could go to work at a place like IBM and they'd supply you with a far more expensive, far more powerful machine than you could probably afford on your own. So you almost looked forward to going to work just to use this souped up computer. Here lies the BYOD problem for businesses. On one hand, they can save money knowing that people have all this stuff on their own and they're going to use it so there's no longer a need to buy them the latest and greatest super strong computer. But, can that also be used in the reverse? What if a business wants to fight the whole BYOD thing by putting people back on super strong machines to where they won't even want to bring their own in anymore? It may be an interesting thought, but it really isn't going to keep the leakiest of machines out of the office, also known as the mobile phone.
How about if you ever need to get sudo on a Mac OSX machine and don't have the password? As long as someone has ever successfully done a sudo on the machine, you can simply do a sudo -k in the Terminal window, set the date back to the epoch and voila, you now have sudo on that machine. Or simply use Dave Kennedy's python script to do it all for you. Ok, this is one where I have to tell a story of my own. One time in a job, someone emailed me about how to get elevated privileges on a machine and I wrote back in email that he should go ask the system admin team for sudo access. Well, apparently he thought I was an idiot or didn't know how to spell or something because he promptly wrote to the unix administrator and said that I suggested he ask for some kind of "pseudo-access" to the box. Much laughter ensued.
What good would it be if I simply recap the whole show for you. Of course we want you to listen, so let's go quick with a few more. You can use an unauthenticated API to access some functions and interact with a Tesla automobile. The Register is telling us that the Poison Ivy RAT is the AK-47 of attacks. Learn to break Android apps with tutorials and sample sites for learning! An ISP was caught tracking mouse clicks! The horrors! Well, they were tracking where users were clicking on their support page. I can at least see the defense here. They wanted to know how effective their support page was and whether people were able to quickly and easily find the right answers, and where they were clicking around on the screen, hopefully in an attempt to make it more efficient. At least that's the story I'd believe.

Philip Young, aka Soldier of Fortran, is a mainframe phreak! His love of mainframes goes back to when he watched Tron, wide eyed, for the first time. Though it would be decades until he actually got his hands on one he was always interested in their strangeness. Phil has always been in to security since his days as a sysop and playing around on Datapac (the Telenet of Canada). Some people build toy trains, others model airplanes, but Phil's hobby is mainframe security.

After her presentation at Black Hat 2013, Allison is back in studio and will do a tech segment titled "Denying Service to DDOS Protection Services"
Are you not keeping your firmware up to date? Any chance that you're setting yourself up to be hit by the HP Integrated Lights-Out authentication bypass? If you're not going to be diligent about updating firmware and must have these things on the internet, then as Paul says, firewall the hell out of it and keep it away from the rest of your network.
Using a new scanning interface from Paul and Jack's employer, Tenable, you're able to see if your desktop software is out of date. Everyone's browser seemed to need updates and as we learned with some help from Carlos, you even need to update your pooty (PuTTY).
One of the many good lessons that can be gained from watching PaulDotCom is "Don't screw with people's kids." Let's go one step further and say it's probably in poor form to call some random stranger's two year old a "slut". Larry and Paul tell us about a story where one of those baby monitor camera systems was "hacked" because it was on the internet and using the default (ie. no password) password. So someone was able to log in to the camera and shout expletives through the speakers, at the sleeping child and eventually at the parents. Ok, first as Jack already mentioned, don't screw with people's kids. Second, as Larry mentioned, why put this thing on the internet? Third, if you are going to put it on the internet, make it easier or more obvious that a default password needs to be changed. Or finally, as Jack mentions, it might be a little harder to support, but go with a handful of default passwords and put a sticker on the system to let people know what it is. That's a whole lot better than no password when this thing goes on the internet.
Leave it to Expert Steve to start a fire right in the PaulDotCom studios.
Rob Graham over at Erratasec gives a nice behind-the-scenes account of the Blaster worm as it was already 10 years ago that the outbreak first happened. Rob talks about how he found out about the possibility, was soundly mocked even in his own company about the upcoming outbreak and even how he launched his own bloodless coup in his company. He simply told the CEO that a major problem was coming, that he knew how to fix it and he was taking over immediately. In spite of much preparation for a big fight, the CEO simply said "ok" and Rob was off and running. While it only took his in-house developers to create an exploit for the vulnerability, it took much longer than expected for it to be seen in the wild. It was eventually first seen on August 11, 2003. And Rob was vindicated.
So the Transcend SD WiFi Card is completely vulnerable to all kinds of bad things. The tiny little card runs Linux and even has netcat installed! There's a web server on there where you can upload more fun scripts that let you do all kinds of things you shouldn't be able to. Things like see the user's password in the web page source code or remote file includes. But to leave netcat installed and leave open the ability to get a shell on an SD card? As Larry asks "The smaller the device, the less attention that is paid to security??"
While out at Black Hat, Allison got to play with the Hot Plug. No no, in spite of the name this is not some kind of sex toy. Instead, it's a great device that allows you to remove the power plug from a wall socket but still leave the device powered on. According to Allison, it's a male-to-male plug where you just slightly remove the plug from the socket, connect the Hot Plug and then remove the plug from the socket.
There are more discussions and articles but finally, Paul brought up this Dark Reading article by Maxim Weinstein called The More Things Change. This article goes into how many millions of malware variants we've seen through the years, but in the end, all of these hacks require at least one of three things: "exploiting a vulnerability, compromising user credentials, and/or tricking the user." The real question is how we fix these?
Ok, one more. There's an add-on to the Leap Motion device where you can simply use hand (or other) gestures to log in to your Windows machine. Oh so many ways that we could log in...
There are all these stories and more this week on the PaulDotCom Drunken Security News!

If you've seen one of mine, or John Strand's, presentations on offensive countermeasures, you know about Honeyports. If you've taken our class or read our book, you've seen this too! Just to recap:
If you tell your host to listen for connections on a port, and make certain the client is making a full TCP connection, you can "shun" or block the remote IP address. A Honeyport is a port that nothing should be listening on. When something, or someone, makes a connection to this port, you create and implement a local firewall rule on the host to block that IP address.
Previously we had shell scripts and a Windows command to make this happen. I wanted to extend this functionality, but quickly ran into limitations. So, I decided to write a Python script to implement this on all 3 platforms.

Schuyler Towne is on a mission to recover as much information as possible about the lock-related patents that were lost to the patent office fire of 1836. His primary interest is in the history and the story of the creators of the lost locks, but his goal is to conduct all of the research in public, using Zotero, so everyone can follow along and those particularly inclined can even participate. That rough research will remain available indefinitely, but he will go on to curate and organize the work for publication on the website. Depending on what we recover we could potentially restore entire patents to the patent record, or 3D print working locks based on their drawings. We could solve a mystery, or rewrite history.

It's time for another Drunken Security News. Much of the gang was on the road this week so Patrick Laverty sat in with Paul and Engineer Steve for the show, plus Jack's epic beard called in via Skype from lovely Maryland.
First, Paul admitted it was a stretch to bring this into a security context but he wanted to talk about an article that he found in The Economist (via Bruce Schneier) about one theory that if the US would simply be nicer to terrorists, release them from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and stop hunting them down around the world, that they would in turn be nicer to us. Also, fewer would pop up around the world. The thinking is that jailing and killing them turns others into terrorists. So here's the leap. Can the same be said for black hat hackers? If law enforcement agencies stop prosecuting the hackers, will they be nicer and will there be fewer of them? I think we all came to the same conclusion. "Nah."
Paul also found an Adam Shostack article about how attention to the tiniest details can be important to the largest degree. The example given was the vulnerability to the Death Star in the original Star Wars movie was so small and the chances of it being exploited were so remote that the Empire overlooked it, Grand Moff Tarkin even showing his arrogance shortly before his own demise. The same can be said for our systems. It might be a tiny hole and maybe you think that no one would look for it and even if they do, what are the chances they both find it and exploit it? In some cases, it can have quite dire consequences. The Empire overlooked a small vulnerability that they shouldn't have. Are you doing the same with your systems?
Did we happen to mention that Security BSides Boston is May 18 at Microsoft NERD in Cambridge, MA and Security BSides Rhode Island is June 14th and 15th in Providence, RI. Good seats and good conference swag are still available. We all hope to see you there!
The Onion's Twitter account was breached by the Syrian Electronic Army and they handled it a way that only The Onion can, making light of both themselves and the SEA. Additionally, possibly for the first time ever, The Onion published a non-parody post about exactly how the breach occurred.
Additionally, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) web site got spam hacked/defaced with Viagra ads. The only thing we were wondering is, are we sure it was hacked and not just a convenient online pharmacy for their members?
A new whitepaper was released from MIT talking about "Honeywords". The problem being solved here is creating a way for server admins to know sooner when a passwords file has been breached on a server. In addition to the correct password, this new system would add a bunch of fake passwords as well. When the attacker starts trying usernames and passwords, if they use one of the fake passwords, the server admin would be notified that someone is doing that and it is very likely that the passwords file has been breached. It's an interesting concept to ponder.
Jack had an article from Dennis Fisher at Threatpost, asking the question about what's the point of blaming various people for cyberespionage if we don't have a plan to do something about it.
The NSA also has its own 643 page document telling its members how to use Google to find things like Excel documents in Russian that contain the word "login". Wait, I feel like I've heard of this somewhere before. Oh yeah, that's right. Johnny Long was talking about Google Hacking at least as far back as 2007. It's just interesting some times to see things that the media gets wind of and without the slightest bit of checking, thinks something is "new".

Try:-
https://api.twitter.com/1/users/lookup.json?screen_name=BarackObama
https://api.twitter.com/1/users/lookup.json?screen_name=MittRomney
http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/
The last one will find all tweets within 2 miles of the GPS coors (central london) that contains the words London Riot. Replace as desired!
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=london%20riot&geocode=51.50733,%20-0.12768,2ml&include_entities=true&result_type=mixed
This type of data mining can lead to searchable and impressive results for any social engineer.

- “In exchange, defense contractors report known intrusions and can receive forensics analysis and damage assessments from the government after those attacks. In an optional part of the program, the DIB Enhanced Cybersecurity Services, the government shares additional classified threat and technical data with defense contractors and Internet service providers.

“Starting Saturday night at approximately 5pm Pacific time, an automated script began crawling our Web site in search of unvalidated parameters. After approximately two hours of nonstop attempts, the script discovered a SQL injection vulnerability in a simple PHP script that serves up customer reference case studies by vertical market. As with many ancillary scripts common to Web sites, this customer case study database shared the SQL database used for marketing programs which contained names and email addresses of leads, channel partners and some Barracuda Networks employees. The attack utilized one IP address initially to do reconnaissance and was joined by another IP address about three hours later. We have logs of all the attack activity, and we believe we now fully understand the scope of the attack.”

In a post on Cisco's security blog, senior security researcher Mary Landesman said that data from the company's ScanSafe Web security infrastructure suggests that just over 1,000 Web domains have been compromised using the SQL injection attack, not the 500,000 to 1.5 million cited in published reports.
https://threatpost.com/en_us/blogs/widespread-lizamoon-web-attacks-push-rogue-antivirus-040111

“The data included both the owner's GPS location and tidbits the owners gender, birthday and postal code information. There was evidence that the app attempted to provide continuous location monitoring - which would tell advertisers not just where the user accessed the application from, but also allow them to track that user's movement over time. “
RSA attack:
http://threatpost.com/en_us/blogs/rsa-securid-attack-was-phishing-excel-spreadsheet-040111
“"The attacker in this case sent two different phishing emails over a two-day period. The two emails were sent to two small groups of employees; you wouldn’t consider these users particularly high profile or high value targets. The email subject line read '2011 Recruitment Plan," Uri Rivner, head of new technologies in the identity protection division of RSA wrote in a post on the attack”

Long perceived to be beyond the attention of hackers, energy firms and utilities now report that they are being targeted. In the Ponemon study, 76% of the IT security staff interviewed reported that their organization had experienced "one or more data breaches" in the last 12 months. A similar number - 69% - said they felt a data breach was likely to occur in the next 12 months, Ponemon said.

Ladies and Gentleman, it grieves us to no end to announce that this will be the final episode of Exotic Liability. It's been a blast, and we wish we could continue, but life and work have proven to be to big of an obstacle to over come. We said we'd do this until we not having fun anymore and we've reached that point. Organizing schedules has taken all the fun out of it. We will keep our twitter presence, and www.exoticliability.com will stick around as a place where like minded individuals can get together.
Thank you to all of our listeners for the crazy amount of support you've given us. With much sadness, we say goodbye.

Reporters have an amazing knack of getting information from people. That alone interests us, but then you mix in their ability to take that info and make it interesting, make it captivating and make it real - that is an art. We talk to a, in our opinion, superb reporter that works with CNET news as well as CBS Interactive, Elinor Mills. She helps us to uncover the secrets to this art and see what we can learn.

General topics:
Mike:Bsides origins and other. http://chaordicmind.com/blog/
Joe: Open Security Intelligence http://www.opensecurityintelligence.com/
On Monday, February 14th, SIEM and log management vendor SenSage will introduce the Open Security Intelligence forum to the security community to become involved in. The concept of the community is to share best practices in open security analytics to improve our collective security defenses. Specifically, Joe Gottlieb, President and CEO of SenSage would like to discuss:
- Current challenges with today’s SIEM tools, which are a decade old
- Why security analytics needs to be ‘open’
- Why integrating business intelligence tools (i.e. Pentaho, Microsoft Exchange, Cognos, etc.) with SIEM tools can create useful dashboards that help security analysts mine huge data stores for the ‘needle in the haystack’ information they need
- Why ‘security quants’ (analysts that can look deep into the data and develop complex yet useful SQL queries) will become the next role in the SOC
- The benefits of joining the community and sharing best practices
The community will be hosted on a web portal – www.opensecurityintelligence.com – that is under development and will be discussed in our Feb. 14 release. Also, Joe is also giving a talk at Security BSides SF on 2/14 at 3pm PT on this very topic.

attack does not yet have reports of how they where attacked. The comment on the website was for the 1999 attack where someone defaced the nasdaq website.
Quotes from http://www.wallstreetandtech.com/technology-risk-management/229201267
The operator of the Nasdaq Stock Exchange said it found "suspicious files" on its computer servers, in a Web application called Directors Desk which is used by members of corporations' boards of directors who want to share information and files.
"What seems most likely is that the web servers were compromised in an attempt to use them to inject malicious software into their clients," commented one reader of the nakedsecurity.sophos.com blog.

List of common questions.
-How did you find the vulnerability?
-What is your goal in vulnerability research?
-How did you go about disclosing the vulnerability and how did the vendor respond?
-And more...
!!Caution!!: No undisclosed vulnerabilities (0 day)! These vulnerabilities need to be reported to the vendor and patched or exceed a time period where vendor did not patch. If interested in releasing exploit on the show that is fine if can show proof you disclosed to vendor or see the proof of concept already posted on exploit-db or have a CVE.

Chris Gerling – @chrisgerling
Christopher Mills – @thechrisam
Andrew Borel – @andrew_secbit
Guests:
Brian Krebs - @briankrebs - http://krebsonsecurity.com/
General topics:
- I recall reading about various greeting card based attacks over the years. Do you think they've all been originated by the same folks who did this one? Or at least, with the same goals in mind?
- How prevalent do you think ATM skimmers are? What are some ways the common person can look out for them?
- Do you think financial institutions are getting better at educating their customers about the protections provided/not provided under Regulation E?
- Do you anticipate payment processing centers becoming a bigger target for criminals vs the individual businesses?
- Since many financials are under pressure from new reserve requirements, do you think new security requirements will force smaller financials to merge? How can they balance the need to offer more convenient services (such as mobile banking) with the need to improve security at the same time?
- What do you think the top 3 stories for 2010 were? Why do you think they were the top stories?
