YouTubeDrive

YouTubeDrive is a Wolfram Language (aka Mathematica) package that encodes/decodes arbitrary data to/from simple RGB videos which are automatically uploaded to/downloaded from YouTube. Since YouTube imposes no limits on the total number or length of videos users can upload, this provides an effectively infinite but extremely slow form of file storage.

YouTubeDrive depends externally on FFmpeg, youtube-upload, and youtube-dl. These programs must be downloaded and installed separately, and prior to first use, YouTubeDrive must be configured with their install locations.

Fundamental flaws uncovered in Mega's encryption scheme — show the service can read your data

MEGA's system does not protect its users against a malicious server and present five distinct attacks, which together allow for a full compromise of the confidentiality of user files — the researchers wrote on a website. Additionally, the integrity of user data is damaged to the extent that an attacker can insert malicious files of their choice, which pass all authenticity checks of the client. We built proof-of-concept versions of all the attacks — showcasing their practicality and exploitability.

MEGA Security Update

https://blog.mega.io/mega-security-update

Today, MEGA has released software updates that fix a critical vulnerability reported by researchers at one of Europe’s leading universities, ETH Zurich, Switzerland. Further updates addressing less severe identified issues will follow in the near future. MEGA is not aware of any user accounts being compromised by these vulnerabilities.

Who is potentially affected?

Customers who have logged into their MEGA account at least 512 times (the more, the higher the exposure). Note that resuming an existing session does not count as a login. While all MEGA client products use permanent sessions by default, some third-party clients such as Rclone do not, so their users may be exposed.

Who could have exploited the vulnerability?

Very few: An attacker would have had to first gain control over the heart of MEGA’s server infrastructure or achieve a successful man-in-the-middle attack on the user’s TLS connection to MEGA.

What could have been the outcome?

Once a targeted account had made enough successful logins, incoming shared folders, MEGAdrop files and chats could have been decryptable. Files in the cloud drive could have been successively decrypted during subsequent logins. Furthermore, files could have been placed in the account that appear to have been uploaded by the account holder (a “framing” attack).
