AstraLocker 2.0 ransomware isn’t going to give you your files back

Reversing Labs reports that the latest verison of AstraLocker ransomware is engaged in a a so-called "smash and grab" ransomware operation. Smash and grab is all about maxing out profit in the fastest time. It works on the assumption by malware authors that security software or victims will find...

Researchers Uncover Ways to Break the Encryption of 'MEGA' Cloud Storage Service

A new piece of research from academics at ETH Zurich has identified a number of critical security issues in the MEGA cloud storage service that could be leveraged to break the confidentiality and integrity of user data. In a paper titled "MEGA: Malleable Encryption Goes Awry," the researchers poi...

Non-aligned u32 read in Chacha20 encryption and decryption

The implementation does not enforce alignment requirements on input slices while incorrectly assuming 4-byte alignment through an unsafe call to std::slice::fromrawpartsmut, which breaks the contract and introduces undefined behavior. This affects Chacha20 encryption and decryption in crypto2...

CVE-2022-25807

An issue was discovered in the IGEL Universal Management Suite UMS 6.07.100. A hardcoded DES key in the LDAPDesPWEncrypter class allows an attacker, who has discovered encrypted LDAP bind credentials, to decrypt those credentials using a static 8-byte DES key...

CVE-2022-25806

An issue was discovered in the IGEL Universal Management Suite UMS 6.07.100. A hardcoded DES key in the PrefDBCredentials class allows an attacker, who has discovered encrypted superuser credentials, to decrypt those credentials using a static 8-byte DES key...

Hardcoded credentials

An issue was discovered in the IGEL Universal Management Suite UMS 6.07.100. A hardcoded DES key in the PrefDBCredentials class allows an attacker, who has discovered encrypted superuser credentials, to decrypt those credentials using a static 8-byte DES key...

CVE-2022-25806

IGEL UMS 6.07.100 contains a hardcoded DES key in PrefDBCredentials, enabling an attacker who has obtained encrypted superuser credentials to decrypt them with a static 8-byte DES key. This affects IGEL Universal Management Suite and allows confidentiality/integrity/availability impact as describ...

CVE-2022-28385

An issue was discovered in certain Verbatim drives through 2022-03-31. Due to missing integrity checks, an attacker can manipulate the content of the emulated CD-ROM drive containing the Windows and macOS client software. The content of this emulated CD-ROM drive is stored as an ISO-9660 image in...

Prometheus ransomware’s flaws inspired researchers to try to build a near-universal decryption tool

This blog is part of our live coverage from RSA Conference 2022: Prometheus—a ransomware build based on Thanos that locked up victims’ computers in the summer of 2021—included a major “vulnerability” that led security researchers at IBM to try and build a one-size-fits-all ransomware decryptor th...

Eerie GoodWill ransomware forces victims to publish videos of good deeds on social media

Ransomware does what the name implies: holds your files or network to ransom. Pay the authors, typically in cryptocurrency, and you may get your files back. Refuse, and the files could be lost forever or even leaked to the far corners of the net. Sometimes creators of ransomware try different...

GHSA-5WW6-PX42-WC85 SM2 Decryption Buffer Overflow

In order to decrypt SM2 encrypted data an application is expected to call the API function EVPPKEYdecrypt. Typically an application will call this function twice. The first time, on entry, the "out" parameter can be NULL and, on exit, the "outlen" parameter is populated with the buffer size...
