Zoom deepfaker fools politicians…twice

We recently said deepfakes “remain the weapon of choice for malign interference campaigns, troll farms, revenge porn, and occasionally humorous celebrity face-swaps”. Skepticism that these techniques would work on a grand scale such as an election, remains in place. In the realm of malign...

Xmas Light Security Improves… a bit

We've looked at smart Xmas lights before; whilst they were vulnerable, there was no consequence to the hack other than making them flash in a different order!

Nmap NSE 6.01: smb-server-stats

Attempts to grab the server's statistics over SMB and MSRPC, which uses TCP ports 445 or 139. An administrator account is required to pull these statistics on most versions of Windows, and Vista and above require UAC to be turned down. Some of the numbers returned here don't feel right to me, but...

Nmap NSE 6.01: smb-enum-shares

Attempts to list shares using the 'srvsvc.NetShareEnumAll' MSRPC function and retrieve more information about them using 'srvsvc.NetShareGetInfo'. If access to those functions is denied, a list of common share names are checked. Finding open shares is useful to a penetration tester because there...

Nmap NSE net: smb-enum-users

Attempts to enumerate the users on a remote Windows system, with as much information as possible, through two different techniques both over MSRPC, which uses port 445 or 139; see 'smb.lua'. The goal of this script is to discover all user accounts that exist on a remote system. This can be helpfu...

Nmap NSE net: smb-system-info

Pulls back information about the remote system from the registry. Getting all of the information requires an administrative account, although a user account will still get a lot of it. Guest probably won't get any, nor will anonymous. This goes for all operating systems, including Windows 2000...

Nmap NSE net: smb-os-discovery

Attempts to determine the operating system, computer name, domain, and current time over the SMB protocol ports 445 or 139. This is done by starting a session with the anonymous account or with a proper user account, if one is given; it likely doesn't make a difference; in response to a session...

Nmap NSE net: smb-flood

Exhausts a remote SMB server's connection limit by by opening as many connections as we can. Most implementations of SMB have a hard global limit of 11 connections for user accounts and 10 connections for anonymous. Once that limit is reached, further connections are denied. This script exploits...
