Researchers Hacked EV Car Chargers To Execute Arbitrary Code

By CyberMrfu3k -
EVs face significant cyber risks due to their reliance on interconnected systems and the increasing number of public charging stations, which often lack robust security measures.  Vulnerabilities in EV software and charging infrastructure can expose vehicles to malware, unauthorized access, and potential control by hackers. During Pwn2Own Automotive 2024 in Tokyo, cybersecurity researchers hacked  EV car chargers  to execute arbitrary code. Researchers Hacked EV Car Chargers At the Pwn2Own Automotive 2024 event, researchers exploited three EV chargers:-  Autel MaxiCharger (MAXI US AC W12-L-4G) ChargePoint Home Flex JuiceBox 40 Smart EV Charging Station  They executed arbitrary code via Bluetooth while focusing on the Autel MaxiCharger, and this uncovered the “CVE-2024-23958,” “CVE-2024-23959,” and “CVE-2024-23967”  vulnerabilities . The features of the charger include WiFi, Ethernet, Bluetooth, 4G LTE, RFID, LCD touchscreen, RS485, and a USB-C port. Its har...

AitM Phishing Attacks Bypass MFA and EDR

By CyberMrfu3k -

 Attackers are increasingly using new phishing toolkits (open-source, commercial, and criminal) to execute adversary-in-the-middle (AitM) attacks. AitM enables attackers to not just harvest credentials but steal live sessions, allowing them to bypass traditional phishing prevention controls such as MFA, EDR, and email content filtering. In this article, we're going to look at what AitM phishing is, how it works, and what organizations need to be able to detect and block these attacks effectively.

AitM phishing:-

AitM phishing is a technique that uses dedicated tooling to act as a proxy between the target and a legitimate login portal for an application. As it's a proxy to the real application, the page will appear exactly as the user expects, because they are logging into the legitimate site – just taking a detour via the attacker's device. For example, if accessing their webmail, the user will see all their real emails; if accessing their cloud file store then all their real files will be present, etc.

This gives AitM an increased sense of authenticity and makes the compromise less obvious to the user. However, because the attacker is sitting in the middle of this connection, they are able to observe all interactions and also take control of the authenticated session to gain control of the user account.

While this access is technically temporary (since the attacker is unable to reauthenticate if prompted) in practice authenticated sessions can often last as long as 30 days or more if kept active. Additionally, there are a wide range of persistence techniques that allow an attacker to maintain some level of access to the user account and/or targeted application indefinitely.

Ninjutsu Project Hey everyone. Hope you all are doing good. Today I came across a post in Linkedin by Hasan , a Red team Penetration tester. It's as follows I started exploring and came to know about this distribution. A Windows based pentesting distribution!!  Sound exciting right? Within few minutes i ended up downloading the OS (17gb -_- ) Don't forget to visit their official blog and support the developer if you like his work.

Fog Ransomware

‛Fog’ Ransomware Rolls in to Target many Sectors. A new group of hackers is encrypting data in virtual machines, leaving ransom notes, and calling it a day. A new ransomware operation has been performing old-fashioned ransomware attacks, locking up data in virtual environments to earn quick payouts. Attack Vectors • Fog attacks typically begin with stolen virtual private network (VPN) credentials, an increasingly popular means of initial access into sizable organizations. The group has exploited two different VPN gateway vendors thus far, which Arctic Wolf has declined to name. • In one case, for example, Fog passed the hash to compromise administrator accounts in its target’s network. It then used the accounts to establish a remote desktop protocol (RDP) connection with Windows servers running the Hyper-V hypervisor and Veeam data protection software. • Other common Fog tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) include credential stuffing, using native Windows and open-source tools l...
