JFrog security research team (formerly Vdoo) has recently disclosed a code injection issue in Yamale, a popular schema validator for YAML that’s used by over 200 repositories. The issue has been assigned to CVE-2021-38305.
In March 2021, cybersecurity researcher Le Xuan Tuyen discovered a security bug in Microsoft Exchange Server. The vulnerability, dubbed ProxyToken, lets attackers bypass the authentication process to access victims’ emails and configure their mailboxes.
The vulnerability disclosure process involves reporting security flaws in software or hardware, and can be complex. Cooperation between the organization responsible for the software or hardware, and the security researcher who discovers the vulnerability can be complicated. In this blog we’ll look at the vulnerability disclosure process, the parties involved and how they can collaborate productively.
Read how our red team used different attack techniques to hack AppLocker restrictions by implementing escalated privileges and reusing the Credentials Manager to extract stored data and Azure information.
Hosting phishing pages or malicious payloads on legitimate cloud services is now a consolidated modus operandi for bad actors.
CVE-2021-25741 is a new vulnerability discovered in Kubernetes that allows users to create a container with subpath volume mounts to access files & directories outside of the volume, including the host filesystem. It was disclosed in September 2021 and affects kubelet, which is the node agent that runs on each Kubernetes node. In particular CVE-2021-25741 affects kubelet in these Kubernetes versions.
It doesn’t seem that long ago that I wrote about the OWASP Top 10 changes that came in 2017. OWASP has announced the release for the new 2021 Top 10. Find out more about Broken Access Control and Cryptographic Failure vulnerabilities and understand what it means for application development and DevSecOps
The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) is a not-for-profit organisation that aims, through community-led open-source projects, to improve the security of web-based software. OWASP develop and manage a public framework that documents the top 10 risks to application security, the OWASP Top 10. It provides developers and security professionals with the industry’s consensus on the most significant risks to web applications and recommends security controls to mitigate them.
The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP), founded by Mark Curphey, first released the OWASP Top 10 Web Application Security Risks in 2003. The Top 10 is the closest the development community has to a set of commandments on how to build secure applications. This list represents the most critical risks to software security today and is recognized by developers as the first step toward creating more secure code.
To release reasonably secure products, vendors must integrate software security processes throughout all stages of the software development lifecycle. That would include product architecture and design; implementation and verification; deployment and monitoring in the field; and back again to design to address the changing threat landscape, market needs, and product issues.
