Previously the Hubble analysis of the system describes about the modified MBR for disk encryption extortion Trojan Petya's. Recently Leo Stone gives crack Petya key full blasting code and decrypt tool, and noted that Petya author is using a variant of the Salsa20 algorithm to perform key...

Researchers Break Petya Ransomware Encryption

Researchers have been combing through code related to the Petya ransomware long enough they’ve been able to cobble together a decryption tool that should allow most victims to generate keys in less than 10 seconds. A Twitter user who goes by the handle @leostone came up with a genetic algorithm o...

CVE-2016-0790

Jenkins before 1.650 and LTS before 1.642.2 do not use a constant-time algorithm to verify API tokens, which makes it easier for remote attackers to determine API tokens via a brute-force approach...

CVE-2016-0791

CVE-2016-1777

CVE-2016-1777 is documented as a vulnerability where RC4 was supported by the Web Server in Apple OS X Server (before 5.1). The connected Apple security entries indicate that RC4 was removed as a default cipher in macOS security updates, addressing the issue (CVE-2016-1777) and associated CVEs by...

Forgeable Public/Private Tokens

Overview Affected versions of the jwt-simple package allow users to select what algorithm the server will use to verify a provided JWT. A malicious actor can use this behaviour to arbitrarily modify the contents of a JWT while still passing verification. For the common use case of the JWT, the en...
