Malware targeting industrial plants: a threat to physical security

We live in a world where more and more manufacturing processes are controlled by computers that send instructions to robots. This might sound like a safe and efficient way of work, as it rules out human error, but what happens when a threat actor decides to target production servers? Consider the...

World Readable Data

tripleo-heat-templates contains a world readable data vulnerability. The library does not set the proper permissions during the creation of the ceph.client.openstack.keyring, allowing a local user to access the keyring to read or modify data. This vulnerability only affects setups with openstack...
