Experts Urge Conservatism on Crypto Standards

SAN FRANCISCO–Security people are, by nature, cautious and methodical, and that is even more true of cryptographers. And in the current environment, when new adversaries seem to emerge on a daily basis and cryptographic standards are under intense scrutiny, a panel of some of the biggest names in...

Announcing the Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit (EMET) 5.0 Technical Preview

I’m here at the Moscone Center, San Francisco, California, attending the annual RSA Conference USA 2014. There’s a great crowd here and many valuable discussions. Our Microsoft Security Response Center MSRC engineering teams have been working hard on the next version of EMET, which helps customer...

Ransomware Scam Plagued by Weak Crypto

A new piece of ransomware that emerged earlier this month is encrypting its victim’s files with an easily breakable cryptographic algorithm. BitCrypt, as it is known, purports to lock down files with 1024-bit RSA encryption but actually only deploys a much weaker 426-bit key. According to...

Complete Microsoft EMET Bypass Developed

SAN FRANCISCO — Researchers at Bromium Labs are expected to announce today they have developed an exploit that bypasses all of the mitigations in Microsoft’s Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit EMET. Principal security researcher Jared DeMott is scheduled to deliver a presentation this morning...

Dennis Fisher and Mike Mimoso Preview RSA 2014

Dennis Fisher and Mike Mimoso preview next week’s RSA conference, discuss the sessions they’re looking forward to covering and what the fallout from the NSA controversy will be during the week...

CVE-2014-0625

The SSLSocket implementation in the 1 JSAFE and 2 JSSE APIs in EMC RSA BSAFE SSL-J 5.x before 5.1.3 and 6.x before 6.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service memory consumption by triggering application-data processing during the TLS handshake, a time at which the data is internal...

CVE-2014-0626

The 1 JSAFE and 2 JSSE APIs in EMC RSA BSAFE SSL-J 5.x before 5.1.3 and 6.x before 6.0.2 make it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended cryptographic protection mechanisms by triggering application-data processing during the TLS handshake, a time at which the data is both unencrypted and...

CVE-2014-0627

The SSLEngine API implementation in EMC RSA BSAFE SSL-J 5.x before 5.1.3 and 6.x before 6.0.2 allows remote attackers to trigger the selection of a weak cipher suite by using the wrap method during a certain incomplete-handshake state...

Design/Logic Flaw

The SSLEngine API implementation in EMC RSA BSAFE SSL-J 5.x before 5.1.3 and 6.x before 6.0.2 allows remote attackers to trigger the selection of a weak cipher suite by using the wrap method during a certain incomplete-handshake state...

CVE-2014-0627

Summary: CVE-2014-0627 affects EMC RSA BSAFE SSL-J (SSL-J) 5.x before 5.1.3 and 6.x before 6.0.2. The SSLEngine API can reveal information by using the wrap method after the Finished message in an incomplete handshake, potentially allowing an attacker to trigger a weak cipher suite. Impact: Infor...

CVE-2014-0626

The RSA BSAFE SSL-J vulnerability CVE-2014-0626 affects SSL-J 5.x (before 5.1.3) and 6.x (before 6.0.2). The JSAFE and JSSE APIs can process application data during the TLS handshake, exposing data unencrypted and unauthenticated and enabling potential information disclosure at handshake time. Ac...

WinSCP < 5.1.6 RSA Signature Blob Integer Overflow

The WinSCP program installed on the remote host is a version prior to 5.1.6. It therefore contains code from PuTTY that is affected by an integer overflow related to handling RSA signature data. This error allows a remote attacker to crash the application. C Tenable Network Security, Inc...

Amazon Linux AMI : gnupg (ALAS-2014-278)

GnuPG 1.x before 1.4.16 generates RSA keys using sequences of introductions with certain patterns that introduce a side channel, which allows physically proximate attackers to extract RSA keys via a chosen-ciphertext attack and acoustic cryptanalysis during decryption. NOTE: applications are not...
