New Guidelines Address PCI DSS Tokenization

"Tokenization" is one of the best techniques to reduce the risk of credit card data loss. Basically, it is the process of substituting sensitive data with other values not considered sensitive. By doing this, tokenization technology essentially removes anything of value from the data stream, and,...

Windows Gather Hardware Enumeration

Enumerate PCI hardware information from the registry. Please note this script will run through registry subkeys such as: 'PCI', 'ACPI', 'ACPIHAL', 'FDC', 'HID', 'HTREE', 'IDE', 'ISAPNP', 'LEGACY'', LPTENUM', 'PCIIDE', 'SCSI', 'STORAGE', 'SW', and 'USB'; it will take time to finish. It is...

CVE-2011-1898

CVE-2011-1898 affects Xen (versions 4.1 before 4.1.1 and 4.0 before 4.0.2). When using PCI passthrough on Intel VT-d chipsets that lack interrupt remapping, a guest OS user can gain host OS privileges by using DMA to generate MSI interrupts via the interrupt injection registers. The provided docu...

Xen DoS using IOMMU faults from PCI-passthrough guest

ISSUE DESCRIPTION A VM that controls a PCIE device directly can cause it to issue DMA requests to invalid addresses. Although these requests are denied by the IOMMU, the hypervisor needs to handle the interrupt and clear the error from the IOMMU, and this can be used to live-lock a CPU and...
