The TLS implementation in the TCP/IP networking module in Unisys ClearPath MCP systems with TCP-IP-SW 58.1 before 58.160, 59.1 before 059.1a.17 IC 17, and 60.0 before 60.044 might allow remote attackers to decrypt TLS ciphertext data by leveraging a Bleichenbacher RSA padding oracle, aka a ROBOT...

How to Verify Password for an Encrypted SSL Certificate Key File

This article explains how to use OpenSSL to decrypt a keyfile that was encrypted by a password. Background On NetScaler, when creating an RSA Key, you can change the PEM Encoding Algorithm to DES3 and enter a permanent Passphrase. This encrypts the keyfile and protects it with a password or pass...

Encryption 101: a malware analyst’s primer

While most in the security industry know what encryption is, many lack a basic understanding of how it is used in malware—especially ransomware. Because of this, we thought it would be beneficial to do an introductory primer on encryption mechanisms and how they are exploited for malicious...

StaCoAn is a crossplatform tool which aids developers, bugbounty hunters and ethical hackers performing static code analysis on mobile applications. This tool will look for interesting lines in the code which can contain: Hardcoded credentials API keys URL’s of API’s Decryption keys Major coding...

Weak ElGamal Parameters

PyCrypto uses weak ElGamal cryptography. Due to an incorrect implementation of ElGamal, the Decisional Diffie-Hellman DDH assumption doesn't hold because of the way the key parameters are generated. This allows attackers who have access to the cipher-text to decrypt the messages and potentially...

BSA-2018-527

Summary OpenSSL 1.0.2 starting from version 1.0.2b introduced an "error state" mechanism. The intent was that if a fatal error occurred during a handshake then OpenSSL would move into the error state and would immediately fail if you attempted to continue the handshake. This works as designed for...
