Experts say MFA is no longer enough for enterprises

Experts say MFA is no longer enough for enterprises | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

The UK’s cyber watchdog says that companies need to be more mindful with how they handle their multi-factor authentication.

The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) said companies can no longer rely on MFA as a blanket solution to their network security woes. The problem, say experts, is that in many cases attackers are now able to intercept MFA keys much in the same way they did passwords.

“Attackers have realized that many of the same social engineering techniques that tricked us into handing over passwords can also be updated to overcome some methods of MFA,” the NCSC said.

How smart TVs spy on you and harvest data • The Register

How smart TVs spy on you and harvest data • The Register | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Smart TVs are watching their viewers and harvesting their data to benefit brokers using the same ad technology that denies privacy on the internet.

In a report titled "How TV Watches Us: Commercial Surveillance in the Streaming Era," the Center for Digital Democracy (CDD) outlines the expansive "commercial surveillance system" that has infested Smart TVs – aka connected TVs or CTVs – and video streaming services.

Linux-Malware "Perfctl" befällt offenbar schon seit Jahren Linux-Server | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Linux-Malware "Perfctl" befällt offenbar schon seit Jahren Linux-Server.
Eine ausgeklügelte Malware befällt massenweise Linux-Server mit falschen Konfigurationen. Das blieb lange unentdeckt, auch wegen der guten Tarnung.


Eine jetzt entdeckte Malware hat es auf Linux-Server abgesehen: Wie die Experten der Cybersecurity-Beratung Aqua Security berichten, ist das Programm namens "Perfctl" vermutlich schon seit 2021 im Umlauf und befällt Linux-Systeme, um diese heimlich als Proxyserver und für Cryptomining zu nutzen. Das Schadprogramm kann auch als Loader für weitere unerwünschte Programme fungieren.

Doomsday 9.9 unauthenticated RCE bug affects 'all Linux'

Doomsday 9.9 unauthenticated RCE bug affects 'all Linux' | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

No fix yet plus criticalness plus uncertainty plus talk of example exploit equals nightmare
Jessica Lyons


Details about an as-yet-non-public critical 9.9-out-of-10-severity unauthenticated remote-code execution vulnerability affecting all GNU/Linux systems could be revealed today.

That's according to software developer Simone Margaritelli, who says there's still no fix for the decade-old flaw he disclosed to developers three weeks ago. If it is as described, the bug could be used to hijack Linux-based systems from across the internet or network.

According to recent reports, there have been several active malware attacks spotted with code that’s at least partially generated by AI.

Hackers abused API to verify millions of Authy MFA phone numbers

Hackers abused API to verify millions of Authy MFA phone numbers | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Twilio has confirmed that an unsecured API endpoint allowed threat actors to verify the phone numbers of millions of Authy multi-factor authentication users, potentially making them vulnerable to SMS phishing and SIM swapping attacks.

Authy is a mobile app that generates multi-factor authentication codes at websites where you have MFA enabled. 

In late June, a threat actor named ShinyHunters leaked a CSV text file containing what they claim are 33 million phone numbers registered with the Authy service.

Over 5,300 GitLab servers exposed to zero-click account takeover attacks

Over 5,300 GitLab servers exposed to zero-click account takeover attacks | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Over 5,300 internet-exposed GitLab instances are vulnerable to CVE-2023-7028, a zero-click account takeover flaw GitLab warned about earlier this month.

The critical (CVSS score: 10.0) flaw allows attackers to send password reset emails for a targeted account to an attacker-controlled email address, allowing the threat actor to change the password and take over the account.

Although the flaw does not bypass two-factor authentication (2FA), it is a significant risk for any accounts not protected by this extra security mechanism.

Hackers Could Have Remotely Controlled Kia Cars Using Only License Plates

Hackers Could Have Remotely Controlled Kia Cars Using Only License Plates | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed a set of now patched vulnerabilities in Kia vehicles that, if successfully exploited, could have allowed remote control over key functions simply by using only a license plate.

"These attacks could be executed remotely on any hardware-equipped vehicle in about 30 seconds, regardless of whether it had an active Kia Connect subscription," security researchers Neiko Rivera, Sam Curry, Justin Rhinehart, and Ian Carroll said.

The issues impact almost all vehicles made after 2013, even letting attackers covertly gain access to sensitive information including the victim's name, phone number, email address, and physical address.

Qilin ransomware now steals credentials from Chrome browsers

Qilin ransomware now steals credentials from Chrome browsers | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

Attack overview
The attack that Sophos researchers analyzed started with Qilin gaining access to a network using compromised credentials for a VPN portal that lacked multi-factor authentication (MFA).

The breach was followed by 18 days of dormancy, suggesting the possibility of Qilin buying their way into the network from an initial access broker (IAB).

Possibly, Qilin spent time mapping the network, identifying critical assets, and conducting reconnaissance.

Hacker Stole Secrets From OpenAI

Hacker Stole Secrets From OpenAI | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

The New York Times reported on July 4, 2024, that OpenAI suffered an undisclosed breach in early 2023.

The NYT notes that the attacker did not access the systems housing and building the AI, but did steal discussions from an employee forum. OpenAI did not publicly disclose the incident nor inform the FBI because, it claims, no information about customers nor partners was stolen, and the breach was not considered a threat to national security. The firm decided that the attack was down to a single person with no known association to any foreign government.

Nevertheless, the incident led to internal staff discussions over how seriously OpenAI was addressing security concerns.
