Cybersecurity Teardown: Understanding Hash Values

We just started a new series called “Cybersecurity Teardown.” In this series, we’ll be ripping apart ideas and attacks, then reassembling them with a Carbon Black mindset. Each idea or attack will be broken down into three phases: What, Why, and How. In this first entry, I wanted to call your...

Rockstar Games: xss on https://www.rockstargames.com/GTAOnline/jp/screens/

In this report, the researcher identified a Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability on the /GTAOnline/jp/screens/ section of the website. Cross-Site Scripting can be exploited to steal cookies or help perform other attacks. This was possible because the page would blindly decode and attempt to load an...

Versa Networks: Passwords Stored Insecurely

In Versa Director, Versa Analytics and VOS, Passwords are not hashed using an adaptive cryptographic hash function or key derivation function prior to storage. Popular hashing algorithms based on the Merkle-Damgardconstruction such as MD5 and SHA-1 alone are insufficient in thwarting password...

CVE-2019-7649

CMSWing 1.3.7 contains a weakness in global.encryptPassword (bootstrap/global.js) where password hashing relies on multiple MD5 operations. This is documented as a weak‑encryption vulnerability that can be brute‑forced, potentially allowing an attacker to break user passwords. The CVE is corrobor...

SSL/TLS Certificate Signed Using Weak Hashing Algorithm

The remote server uses an SSL/TLS certificate that has been signed using a cryptographically weak hashing algorithm e.g. MD2, MD4, MD5, or SHA1. These signature algorithms are known to be vulnerable to collision attacks. An attacker can exploit this to generate another certificate with the same...

Seven Must-Dos to Secure MySQL 8.0

Most database breaches are blamed on insiders such as employees who are either malicious or whose security has been compromised. In fact, most of these breaches are actually caused by poor security configuration and privilege abuse. Every new database version brings security upgrades. Use them...

The vulnerability of Juniper Advanced Threat Prevention’s microprogramming software, related to the use of the DES algorithm and a pre-installed password hashing modifier, allows attackers to gain access to protected information.

The vulnerability of Juniper Advanced Threat Prevention’s detection and prevention software lies in the use of the DES algorithm and a pre-installed modifier for password hashing. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow attackers to gain access to protected information...

CVE-2019-0030

Juniper ATP uses DES and a hardcoded salt for password hashing, allowing for trivial de-hashing of the password file contents. This issue affects Juniper ATP 5.0 versions prior to 5.0.3...

Hardcoded credentials

Juniper ATP uses DES and a hardcoded salt for password hashing, allowing for trivial de-hashing of the password file contents. This issue affects Juniper ATP 5.0 versions prior to 5.0.3...

CVE-2019-0030 Juniper ATP: Password hashing uses DES and a hardcoded salt

Juniper ATP uses DES and a hardcoded salt for password hashing, allowing for trivial de-hashing of the password file contents. This issue affects Juniper ATP 5.0 versions prior to 5.0.3...

Information Disclosure

openssh is vulnerable to information disclosure attacks. The vulnerability exists as sshd in OpenSSH before 7.3, when SHA256 or SHA512 are used for user password hashing, uses BLOWFISH hashing on a static password when the username does not exist, which allows remote attackers to enumerate users ...

Information Leakage

Cumin aka MRG Management Console is vulnerable to information leakage. The vulnerability exists because of the use of weak DES-based hash function to hash password, allowing the attacker to brute-force to get plain text...

Town of Salem Data Breach Exposes 7.6 Million Gamers' Accounts

A massive data breach at the popular online role-playing game 'Town of Salem' has reportedly impacted more than 7.6 million players, the game owner BlankMediaGames BMG confirmed Wednesday on its online forum. With the user base of more than 8 million players, Town of Salem is a browser-based game...

CVE-2017-1268

IBM Security Guardium 10 and 10.5 uses a one-way cryptographic hash against an input that should not be reversible, such as a password, but the software does not also use a salt as part of the input. IBM X-Force ID: 124743...
