credit card PCI DSS compliance Event:
Chaos Communication Camp 2011 Abstract: The PCI DSS standard require strong cryptography or secure hashing as ways to protect cardholder information. But one important factor is missing; detailed instructions for how to correctly apply cryptography to credit card numbers. The primary objective of the Payment Card Industry Data Protection Standard (PCI DSS) is to safeguard cardholder information such as the Primary Account Number (PAN) and the sensitive authentication data (CVV2, Track 1 and 2). Chapter 3.4 deals with the details regarding encryption and key management. > 3.4 Render PAN unreadable anywhere it is stored (including on portable digital media, > backup media, and in logs) by using any of the following approaches: > * One-way hashes based on strong cryptography > * Truncation > * Index tokens and pads > * Strong cryptography with associated key-management processes and procedures What constitutes strong cryptography is further detailed in the glossary and in the PCI SSC FAQ documents as well as in periodic communication to security assessors. But one important factor is missing from the communication; the modes of operation for the cryptographic primitives. The PCI DSS glossary specifically mentions AES, 3DES, RSA, ECC, Elgamal and SHA1 as “industry-tested and accepted standards and algorithms for encryption” but fails to address important issues such as RSA padding and cipher block chaining for 3DES and AES. The requirements are quite clear on the fact that encryption and hashing needs to be implemented properly, but gives little guidance to developers or assessors as to what strong cryptography actually means. There are at least three different scenarios where cardholder information appears to be protected in compliance with the standard but remains vulnerable if disclosed. This presentation describes attacks for common failure scenarios when encrypting credit card information.

Chaos Communication Congress 27th (27C3) 2010 Abstract: Print media are dying, but what is rising up to take their place? In this presentation, I'll answer that question by describing three new kinds of jobs for journalists that do not exist in mainstream print media. These jobs are: hacker journalist, data-mining reporter, and crowd engineer. I'll be describing what these jobs entail, and current examples of organizations already employing people to do them. My observations in this presentation are based on the nearly twenty years I have written for traditional print as well as new media publications, including zines like Bad Subjects and 2600, as well as mainstream media outlets like Wired and the Washington Post. I also created io9.com, the world's most widely-read blog devoted to science and science fiction. As I've watched friends and colleagues suffer through layoffs in the publishing industry, I've also seen the rise of new kinds of journalists who use technology to break stories in ways that would have been impossible even five years ago. Hacker journalists use everything from Perl scripts to open source mapping platforms to do investigative reporting (examples include writing at Ars Technica, as well as people working with the Ushahidi mapping platform). Data-mining reporters are people who analyze vast amounts of data to investigate issues from war crimes (using services like Wikileaks) to the stock market "flash crash". Crowd engineers work on crowd-sourced news sites like Reddit and Metafilter, writing algorithms and community software that makes it easy for people to share information. Like editors, crowd engineers can be very powerful figures who determine which information rises to the top. What these new journalists have in common is a newfound ability to aggregate and analyze information on a massive scale. Ultimately I'll explore how this changes the playing field in media, and why journalists of the future may be more powerful than ever before.

data mining Event:
Chaos Communication Congress 28th (28C3) 2011 Abstract: The object of the lecture is to present and discuss the chokepointproject. How it (will) attempt(s) to aggregate and visualize near-realtime global internetwork data and augment this visualisation with legislative, commercial(ownership) and circumvention information. The goals of the project are as follows: Provide a global early warning system against governmental or commercial abuse of internetworking systems in regards to civil and human rights. Enforce transparency by aggregating commercial ownership information. Enforce transparency by aggregating legislative information, including voting histories. Enable lobbyist to influence legislators by providing reliable, verifiable data. Provide a public database with near real-time network monitoring data for general use. Provide up to date circumvention methodologies, their relative legal status and their potential risks. The chokepointproject currently consists of two elements : A frontend and public database, An intended globally distributed network monitoring data collection system. The frontend intends to provide an easily understandable visualisation of aggregated and processed data-sources. The data-sources intend to provide the following information: A per country detailed description of: 1a. Network ownership (by IP block and route) 1b. Legislative information such as Which relevant laws are currently active. Who has voted for them (supposing voting was a part of the process). Which relevant laws are currently under review or being proposed. Who are proposing/drafting these laws. 1c. What circumvention methods are currently available for specific problems. Near real-time network status vitalisations such as, but not restricted to 2a. Connectivity of geographic clusters, 2b. Manipulation of connectivity such as: 2b.1. Traffic shaping, 2b.2. Content filtering, 2b.3. Blackouts. The intended globally distributed network monitoring data collection system would provide an independent and publicly available dataset. I do not intend to discuss this in depth. The focus of this lecture is supposed to be the front-end and the aggregation of already publicly available data sources, and the supposed benefit to improving civil rights everywhere and protecting them in those places where their functional effectiveness is under threat.

Chaos Communication Congress 28th (28C3) 2011 Abstract: It was only a couple of years ago that generating genetic information about individuals was expensive and laborious work. Modern techniques have drastically cut cost and time needed to get an insight into one's genome and have ultimately led to the formation of personal genetics companies – like 23andMe, deCODEme and others – that now offer direct-to-customer genetic testing. With a price tag of those tests starting at about 100 €, the number of people that do such tests is on the rise. By now, 23andMe alone has over 100.000 paying customers, with over 60.000 of them willing to donate their genetic data and to actively participate in research projects by filling out surveys, e.g. on their medical histories. This has resulted in a high-quality dataset with genetic information of 60.000 individuals. The best part: The data has already been paid for by the participants in the research. Who would not love to get their hands on data like this? Unfortunately, the data sits locked away in corporate vaults, inaccessible to interested (citizen) scientists. But what if we could change this? We've created openSNP, a central, open source, free-to-use repository which lets customers of genotyping companies upload their genotyping data and annotate them with phenotypes. OpenSNP provides its users with the latest scientific research on their genotypes and lets scientists download annotated genotypes to make science more open. Companies that perform Direct-To-Customer (DTC) genetic tests have now been around for about six years, with 23andMe – founded in 2006 – and deCODEme being two of the oldest companies on the market. Their customers receive a test tube via mail, spit into this tube and send it back to their DTC company to get their genetic information analyzed. The tests performed by DTC companies do not utilize the more famous DNA sequencing, but rely on faster and cheaper DNA microarrays instead. Microarrays screen for around 1 million genetic markers, called Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs). A SNP is a genomic variation, where a single base is changed at one site between members of a population. Usually a SNP has only two alleles (variants) and occurs with a frequency of at least 1% in the population. Spread over the whole human genome, each of us carries around 10 million variable sites, where 10% are covered by DTC-companies. Because of their uniqueness, SNPs can be used as markers associated with certain conditions. For example, there are variations of SNPs that are associated with elevated risks of developing breast cancer or Alzheimer’s. Other SNPs can be used to predict how a person metabolizes chemicals or drugs. 23andMe uses the results of consenting customers to perform their own genome wide association studies (GWAS). Those studies check for statistical differences between different groups. In a simple example one could have a group that is known to have Alzheimer’s and a control-group that does not have Alzheimer’s. Given enough participants, one can then look for genetical variants that are over- or underrepresented in one of the groups. The variants that are found by this method can then be used as predictors for Alzheimer’s. We feel that research projects all over the world and science in general would benefit from a rich, freely available source of linked, genetic data. And although genome wide association studies need a minimum number of participants to be able to find significant variations, it is not necessary to have 30.000 participants in your study. There are many publications with significant results with a total number of participants of less than 5000 individuals. Given the current number of 23andMe customers, one only needs 5 % of them to participate in freely sharing their genetic information together with basic information on some medical conditions or other variations to reach the critical mass to be able to perform simple association studies! While many people have already started to publish their results on GitHub et al. and movements like DIYBio are starting to take off, there are no real efforts to create a repository to centrally collect this kind of data. But what if one could create an open platform to collect this kind of linked data? Is it possible to perform crowd-sourced association studies to create new knowledge about our genes? With the creation of openSNP we have tried (and are still trying) to find out.

Other SNPs can be used to predict how a person metabolizes chemicals or drugs. 23andMe uses the results of consenting customers to perform their own genome wide association studies (GWAS). Those studies check for statistical differences between different groups. In a simple example one could have a group that is known to have Alzheimer’s and a control-group that does not have Alzheimer’s. Given enough participants, one can then look for genetical variants that are over- or underrepresented in one of the groups. The variants that are found by this method can then be used as predictors for Alzheimer’s. We feel that research projects all over the world and science in general would benefit from a rich, freely available source of linked, genetic data. And although genome wide association studies need a minimum number of participants to be able to find significant variations, it is not necessary to have 30.000 participants in your study. There are many publications with significant results with a total number of participants of less than 5000 individuals. Given the current number of 23andMe customers, one only needs 5 % of them to participate in freely sharing their genetic information together with basic information on some medical conditions or other variations to reach the critical mass to be able to perform simple association studies! While many people have already started to publish their results on GitHub et al. and movements like DIYBio are starting to take off, there are no real efforts to create a repository to centrally collect this kind of data. But what if one could create an open platform to collect this kind of linked data? Is it possible to perform crowd-sourced association studies to create new knowledge about our genes? With the creation of openSNP we have tried (and are still trying) to find out.

intelligence Google Event:
Black Hat Abu Dhabi 2011 Abstract: Traditional Google searches can generate millions of results many of which are not relevant to what a user is looking for and when a user searches for items with various advanced operators they are still limited to searching one site at a time. This means that an individual can have to peruse through several different pages of sometimes questionable quality looking for relevant and usable information. My custom searches allow a user to peruse multiple relevant sources at the same time. I have put together three different custom searches/ engines; each of these searches goes through different types of online sources/ content and consequently provides different types of information/ intelligence. My presentation goes over each of these custom searches and provides examples of the type of information one can obtain from them and also examines how they can be used both in an offensive manner (ie. attacks) and defensively as well. One can find everything from credit card numbers to passport information and even do things like interrupt travel plans and take over identities. Additionally you can also find significant information on various individuals even if they do not have their own presence online; this can allow an attacker to craft a much more convincing attack to get the information they need. It would appear that the custom search engine owner/ creator and the individual using the searches are both only limited by the content in the search engine and their imagination. The possibilities on what you can find with the appropriate search are endless.

Apache Tomcat versions 7.0.0 through 7.0.21 and 6.0.30 through 6.0.33 suffer from an information disclosure vulnerability. For performance reasons, information parsed from a request is often cached in two places: the internal request object and the internal processor object. These objects are not recycled at exactly the same time. When certain errors occur that needed to be added to the access log, the access logging process triggers the re-population of the request object after it has been recycled. However, the request object was not recycled before being used for the next request. That lead to information leakage (e.g. remote IP address, HTTP headers) from the previous request to the next request.

social engineering Event:
Black Hat USA 2010 Abstract: Given the vast number of security breaches via the internet, the experiment seeks to exploit the fundamental levels of information leakage—the outflow of information as a result of people’s hap-hazard and unquestioned trust. The experiment was conducted by creating a blatantly false identity and enrolling on various social networking websites. By joining networks, registering on mailing lists, and listing false credentials, the conditions were then set to research people’s decisions to trust and share information with the false identity. The main factors observed were: the exploitation of trust based on gender, occupation, education/credentials, and friends (connections). By the end of this Experiment, Robin finished the month having accumulated 100’s connections through various social networking sites. Contacts included executives at government entities such as the NSA, DOD and Military Intelligence groups. Other friends came from Global 500 corporations. Throughout the experiment Robin was offered gifts, government and corporate jobs, and options to speak at a variety of security conferences. Through this 28 day experiment, it became evident that the propagation of a false identity via social networking websites is rampant and viral. Much of the information revealed to Robin Sage violated OPSEC procedures. The deliberate choice of an attractive young female exposed the role that sex and appearance plays in trust and people’s eagerness to connect with someone. In conjunction with her look, Robin Sage’s credentials listed on her profile resulted in selection perception; people’s tendency to draw unwarranted conclusions in their attempt to make a quick decision. By acquiring a large number of connections, Robin had the ability to identify the individual who was positioned to provide the most intelligence based on their involvement in multiple government agencies. The false identity combined with carefully chosen false credentials led to a false trust that could have resulted in the breach of multiple security protocols.

intelligence Event:
Black Hat USA 2010 Abstract: During World War II the CIA created a special information intelligence unit to exploit information gathered from openly available sources. One classic example of the team’s resourcefulness was the ability to determine whether Allied forces had successfully bombed bridges leading into Paris based on increasing orange prices. Since then OSINT sources have surged in number and diversity, but none can compare to the wealth of information provided by the Internet. Attackers have been clever enough in the past to take advantage of search engines to filter this information to identify vulnerabilities. However, current search hacking techniques have been stymied by search provider efforts to curb this type of behavior. Not anymore - our demonstration-heavy presentation picks up the subtle art of search engine hacking at the current state and discusses why these techniques fail. We will then reveal several new search engine hacking techniques that have resulted in remarkable breakthroughs against both Google and Bing. Come ready to engage with us as we release two new tools, GoogleDiggity and BingDiggity, which take full advantage of the new hacking techniques. We’ll also be releasing the first ever “live vulnerability feed”, which will quickly become the new standard on how to detect and protect yourself against these types of attacks. This presentation will change the way you've previously thought about search engine hacking, so put on your helmets. We don't want a mess when we blow your minds.

exploiting Event:
Black Hat USA 2010 Abstract: 0-days are a lot of fun. Whether it’s an overlooked buffer overflow, a poorly implemented encryption algorithm, or something downright bizarre, the thrill of breaking things is the reason most of us get hooked. That’s why Trustwave’s Global Security report is a bit sobering. Why are so many of these systems still vulnerable to SQL injection, LANMAN hash recovery, and default password guessing? And is an NFS exploit considered a 7665-day? But this isn’t about getting bent out of shape about the state of information security. Without being too preachy, this talk is about what we can do to help turn things around. Because if there’s one thing that is clear, the need for information security will only increase. And we’re all feeling the growing pains. The end of 2009 brought with it a great deal of controversy over the effectiveness of information security. We’re all pretty frustrated about it. But that’s the thing about growing up – you start to realize your own limitations. Like dieticians and dentists, we watch people make bad choices and wonder where we went wrong. And like them, we need to focus on the fundamentals: eating healthy, brushing your teeth, and blocking port 139. But man, that sounds pretty boring. So maybe it’s time for a new approach. Maybe it’s not so much about the message, but how it’s getting delivered. And maybe there’s something we can do about that. After all, we’re pretty secure folks – we can handle the touchy-feely stuff, right?

cloud computing Event:
Black Hat Abu Dhabi 2010 Abstract: Mass-market, low-cost, commodity infrastructure-as-a-Service Cloud Computing providers abstract away compute, network and storage and deliver hyper-scaleable capabilities. This "abstraction distraction" has brought us to the point where the sanctity and security of the applications and information transiting them are dependent upon security models and expertise rooted in survivable distributed systems, at layers where many security professionals have no visibility. The fundamental re-architecture of the infostructure, metastructure and infrastructure constructs in this new world forces us back to the design elements of building survivable systems focusing on information centricity -- protecting the stuff that matters most in the first place. The problem is that we're unprepared for what this means and most practitioners and vendors focused on the walled garden, perimeterized models of typical DMZ architecture are at a loss as to how to apply security in a disintermediated and distributed sets of automated, loosely-coupled resources. We're going to cover the most salient points relating to how IaaS Cloud architecture shifts how, where and who architects, deploys and manages security in this "new world order" and what your options are in making sustainable security design decisions.

Packet Storm Security Advisories
VSR identified a vulnerability in HFS+, a filesystem implemented in the OS X XNU kernel. HFS+ is the default filesystem in use on many installations of the Mac OS X operating system. By exploiting this vulnerability, an unprivileged user with local access to a machine using HFS+ may be able to read raw filesystem data, bypassing file permissions and resulting in information disclosure.
