A peine sorti, macOS Mojave est déjà victime d’une grosse faille de sécurité | #CyberSecurity #Apple #NobodyIsPerfect

A peine sorti, macOS Mojave est déjà victime d’une grosse faille de sécurité | #CyberSecurity #Apple #NobodyIsPerfect | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Les contrôles d’accès censés protéger les données personnelles comme le carnet d’adresses peuvent être contournés, comme vient de le démontrer un chercheur en sécurité.
Depuis hier, 24 septembre, les utilisateurs d’ordinateurs Mac peuvent installer la dernière version du système d’exploitation macOS Mojave. Malheureusement, celle-ci est déjà impacté par une importante faille de sécurité qui met à mal la protection des données personnelles. Avec macOS Mojave, Apple a en effet musclé les contrôles d’accès aux fichiers et aux applications sensibles tels que le carnet d’adresses, l’historique des messages, la base de données d’email, le microphone, la caméra, etc. Mais ces contrôles d’accès peuvent être court-circuités, comme le démontre le chercheur en sécurité Patrick Wardle.

Cet expert a développé une application baptisée « breakMojave » capable de siphonner en douce le carnet d’adresses de l’utilisateur sans rien lui demander. Il a montré le déroulement du hack dans une vidéo Vimeo. Au départ, on constate qu’aucune application tierce n’a accès au carnet d’adresses. Le chercheur ouvre ensuite une fenêtre Terminal et tente d’accéder directement aux données du carnet d’adresses, sans succès. Le lancement de breakMojave provoque enfin l’extraction des données, qui se retrouvent copiées en vrac sur le bureau.

'Huge' number of Mac apps are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks | Apple | Nobody Is Perfect | CyberSecurity

'Huge' number of Mac apps are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks | Apple | Nobody Is Perfect | CyberSecurity | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Many of OS X’s most popular apps were recently revealed to be vulnerable to man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacks.

The vulnerability specifically targets those that use Sparkle — a third-party software update framework — and unencrypted HTTP connections.

A security engineer from Vulnsec, known as Radek, said the vulnerability works on both El Capitan and its predecessor, Yosemite.

The total number of apps affected isn’t known, but Radek did estimate the number to be “huge.” Some of those confirmed as vulnerable are:

Camtasia 2 (v2.10.4)
DuetDisplay (v1.5.2.4)
uTorrent (v1.8.7)
Sketch (v3.5.1)
Additionally, security researcher Jonathan Zdziarski told Ars Technica that the ‘Hopper’ reverse engineering tool and ‘DXO Optics Pro’ are also susceptible.

Le mythe vient de s'effondrer : un chercheur en sécurité vient de démontrer combien il était facile de contourner les mécanismes de sécurité mis en place par Apple dans OS X pour polluer le système avec des malwares.

Combien de temps le mythe de la sécurité Mac va-t-il encore tenir? | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Utrecht, le 27 novembre 2013 - Selon une récente enquête de Kaspersky Lab, il existe de fortes probabilités qu’un nombre croissant d’utilisateurs Mac soient la proie de menaces d’Internet. La quantité des logiciels malveillants ciblant les Mac a augmenté de 50% au cours des douze derniers mois. Pourtant, plus d’un tiers (35%) de tous les utilisateurs Mac pensent à tort être protégés contre les menaces numériques.

Le nombre des propriétaires de Mac continue de progresser, et par conséquent l’intérêt des cybercriminels pour cette plate-forme s’amplifie lui aussi. Les virus informatiques, chevaux de Troie, astuces de phishing et autres menaces d’Internet visant cette plate-forme sont d’ores et déjà en circulation, en grands nombres qui plus est. Les utilisateurs sont ainsi tout aussi vulnérables que les utilisateurs de PC Windows.
