HP Enterprise Computers were left vulnerable to cyberattacks because of unpatched high-severity security vulnerabilities.

Security researchers have found hidden vulnerabilities in several models of HP’s Business-oriented notebooks that continue to be unpatched, (Sic) Binarily told listeners at the Black Code conference.It said that these flaws are “difficult to detect with TPM measurements.” Firmware flaws can have serious implications as they allow an adversary to achieve long-term persistence on a device running in the background, evading traditional operating system security protections. The high-severity vulnerabilities identified by Binarly affect HP EliteBook devices and concern a case of memory corruption in the System Management Mode (SMM) of the firmware, thereby enabling an attacker to execute arbitrary code with highest privileges – CVE-2022-23930 (CVSS score: 8.2) – Stack-based buffer […]

Conti Cybercrime Cartel、「BazarCall」フィッシング攻撃を使用して被害者のコンピュータにアクセス

A trio of offshoots from the Conti cybercrime cartel are using a new type of phishing technique. In call back or callback phishing, attackers first use basic email hacking to get you to provide them with your network’s password and then they’ll exploit it further by getting in touch again over that same phone number spoofed message side channel attack vector. These targeted attacks were likely launched by Silent Ransom, Quantum and Roy/Zeon. They split from Conti after the ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) cartel orchestrated its shutdown in May 2022 following a public support for Russia on the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian conflict. The advanced social engineering tactic BazaCall (BazarCall) was used by Conti […]

Facebook to implement end-to-end encryption and encrypted backups for Messenger

Select users will be able to test end-to-end encryption on Facebook Messenger at the beginning of next week. “If you’re in the test group, some of your Messenger chats will be automatically encrypted. You won’t have to opt-in or out of this feature.” It is a year since Instagram, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger were enabled for E2EE calls. The way encryption works is that it scrambles the data in transit, so no one can read them as they’re sent from your phone to WhatsApp’s servers. Meta-owned WhatsApp explains this process beautifully on their documentation page. In 2022, Facebook released the ability to have encrypted chats on Messenger. You needed to […]

暗号通貨業界に対する政府の取り締まりが続く

In conclusion, the Dutch developer of the decentralized cryptocurrency mixing service, Tornado Cash, has been arrested on suspicion of hiding criminal financial flows and facilitating money laundering. This follows the U.S. sanctioning of the service just days earlier.
