CVE-2021-42017

CVE-2021-42017 affects Siemens RUGGEDCOM ROS and associated RuggedCom devices (e.g., i800/i801/.../RSG2100, RS900 family, RMC8388, etc.), where third-party components expose a vulnerability from CBC-mode TLS implementations in TLS 1.0–1.2. The issue enables a man-in-the-middle to eavesdrop on enc...

Not with a Bang but a Whisper: The Shift to Stealthy C2

As defensive tools have evolved to detect more and more traditional attack techniques, it should come as no surprise that attackers have shifted tactics. This ever-evolving arms race between offensive security toolsets, bespoke advanced persistent threat APT malware and the billion-dollar infosec...

Sql injection

When PgBouncer is configured to use "cert" authentication, a man-in-the-middle attacker can inject arbitrary SQL queries when a connection is first established, despite the use of TLS certificate verification and encryption. This flaw affects PgBouncer versions prior to 1.16.1...

Medium: curl

Issue Overview: A flaw was found in curl. This flaw lies in the --ssl-reqd option or related settings in libcurl. Users specify this flag to upgrade to TLS when communicating with either IMAP, POP3 or a FTP server. An attacker controlling such servers could return a crafted response which could...

Siemens Climatix POL909 (AWM) Information Disclosure Vulnerability

Siemens Climatix Pol909 is an intelligent network module from Siemens, Germany. security vulnerability exists in versions prior to Siemens Climatix POL909 AWM module V11.34, which stems from the fact that the web server of the affected device does not use TLS encryption when transmitting data. An...
