The Hacker's Choice releases SSL DOS Tool German hacker group "The Hacker's Choice" officially released a new DDoS tool. The tool exploits a weakness in SSL to kick a server off the Internet. Establishing a secure SSL connection requires 15x more processingpower on the server than on the client.THC-SSL-DOS exploits this asymmetric property by overloading theserver and knocking it off the Internet.This problem affects all SSL implementations today. The vendors are awareof this problem since 2003 and the topic has been widely discussed.This attack further exploits the SSL secure Renegotiation featureto trigger thousands of renegotiations via single TCP connection. Download: Windows binary: thc-ssl-dos-1.4-win-bin.zip Unix Source : thc-ssl-dos-1.4.tar.gz Usage: Use " ./configure; make all install " to build and Run :  ./thc-ssl-dos 127.3.133.7 443 Tips & Tricks for whitehats 1. The average server can do 300 handshakes per second. This would require 10-25% of your lapt

Since its emergence, Generative AI has revolutionized enterprise productivity. GenAI tools enable faster and more effective software development, financial analysis, business planning, and customer engagement. However, this business agility comes with significant risks, particularly the potential for sensitive data leakage. As organizations attempt to balance productivity gains with security concerns, many have been forced to choose between unrestricted GenAI usage to banning it altogether. A new e-guide by LayerX titled 5 Actionable Measures to Prevent Data Leakage Through Generative AI Tools is designed to help organizations navigate the challenges of GenAI usage in the workplace. The guide offers practical steps for security managers to protect sensitive corporate data while still reaping the productivity benefits of GenAI tools like ChatGPT. This approach is intended to allow companies to strike the right balance between innovation and security. Why Worry About ChatGPT? The e

OpenVAS - Advanced Open Source vulnerability scanner OpenVAS is a framework of several services and tools offering a comprehensive and powerful vulnerability scanning and vulnerability management solution.The powerful and comprehensive OpenVAS solution is available as Free Software and maintained on a daily basis. An overview of the vulnerability handling process is: The reporter reports the vulnerability privately to OpenVAS. The appropriate component's developers works privately with the reporter to resolve the vulnerability. A new release of the OpenVAS component concerned is made that includes the fix. The OpenVAS Manager is the central service that consolidates plain vulnerability scanning into a full vulnerability management solution. The Manager controls the Scanner via OTP (OpenVAS Transfer Protocol) and itself offers the XML-based, stateless OpenVAS Management Protocol (OMP). All intelligence is implemented in the Manager so that it is possible to implement variou

WineHQ database compromise - One More Linux Project Fail Jeremy White, Codeweavers Founder has announced that access to the WineHQ database has been compromised. " On the one hand, we saw no evidence of harm to any database. We saw no evidence of any attempt to change the database (and candidly, using the real appdb or bugzilla is the easy way to change the database). Unfortunately, the attackers were able to download the full login database for both the appdb and bugzilla. This means that they have all of those emails, as well as the passwords. The passwords are stored encrypted, but with enough effort and depending on the quality of the password, they can be cracked ." Anybody who has reused a password stored there probably wants to make some changes fairly soon. Attackers have used phpMyAdmin, an open source database administration tool, to access the WineHQ project's database and harvest users' appdb and bugzilla access credentials. Wine (Wine Is Not an Emu

VeriSign demands Power to takedown non-legitimate website VeriSign, which manages the database of all .com internet addresses, wants powers to shut down "non-legitimate" domain names when asked to by law enforcement. VeriSign should be able to shut down a .com or .net domain, and therefore its associated website and email, " to comply with any applicable court orders, laws, government rules or requirements, requests of law enforcement or other governmental or quasi-governmental agency, or any dispute resolution process ", according to a document it filed today with domain name industry overseer ICANN. The new powers would be international and, according to VeriSign's filing, could enable it to shut down a domain also when it receives " requests from law enforcement ", without a court order." Various law enforcement personnel, around the globe, have asked us to mitigate domain name abuse, and have validated our approach to rapid suspension of

Apache Patch released for  Reverse proxy Bypass Vulnerability Security experts at Context have discovered a hole in the Apache web server that allows remote attackers to access internal servers. Security experts are warning firms running the Apache web server to keep up to date with the latest patches after the Apache Software Foundation issued a security advisory to all customers highlighting a new vulnerability. The weakness in 1.3 and all 2.x versions of the Apache HTTP Server can be exploited only under certain conditions. Reverse proxies are used to route external HTTP and HTTPS web requests to one of several internal web servers to access data and resources. Typical applications include load balancing, separating static from dynamic content, or to present a single interface to a number of different web servers at different paths. Context explained that the attack is based on an Apache web server using the mod_rewrite proxy function, and uses a common hacking tool to chang

Nmap 5.61 TEST2 -  IPv6 OS detection Added Nmap Added IPv6 OS detection, CPE, 30 more scripts, and more features in latest release Nmap 5.61 TEST2. Change Log for Nmap 5.61TEST2 Added IPv6 OS detection system! The new system utilizes many tests similar to IPv4, and also some IPv6-specific ones that we found to be particularly effective. And it uses a machine learning approach rather than the static classifier we use for IPv4. We hope to move some of the IPv6 innovations back to our IPv4 system if they work out well. The database is still very small, so please submit anyfingerprints that Nmap gives you to the specified URL (as long asyou are certain that you know what the target system isrunning). Usage and results output are basically the same as withIPv4, but we will soon document the internal mechanisms athttps://nmap.org/book/osdetect.html, just as we have for IPv4. For anexample, try "nmap -6 -O scanme.nmap.org". [David, Luis] [NSE] Added 3 scripts, bringing the tota
