hacking: security in practice
Analyzing an exe

So I work from home and noticed that when connecting to the company's server, there is an .exe that installs and then runs forever in the background (even if you are no longer connected to the company) and starts as soon as you open your computer. I need to know if there is a way to know what it does since I feel they are spying on me, and I am using my personal computer and if they are doing this they are breaking the law.

​

I would appreciate any guidelines.

I want to start hacking but want some guidance.

So,to start with, yes I have gone down into the rabbit hole a little, and have a basic understanding of Java and python, but need some extra help. Anyone willing?

Bugs in NVIDIA’s Jetson Chipset Opens Door to DoS Attacks, Data Theft

https://www.blackhatethicalhacking.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/black-hat-locks-and-electronics.jpg Bugs in NVIDIA’s Jetson Chipset Opens Door to DoS Attacks, Data TheftPost Views: 65
Reading Time: 1 Minute
Flaws impacting millions of internet of things (IoT) devices running NVIDIA’s Jetson chips open the door for a variety of hacks, including denial-of-service (DoS) attacks or the siphoning of data.
NVIDIA released patches addressing nine high-severity vulnerabilities including eight additional bugs of less severity. The patches fix a wide swath of NVIDIA’s chipsets typically used for embedded computing systems, machine-learning applications and autonomous devices such as robots and drones.

Impacted products include Jetson chipset series; AGX Xavier, Xavier NX/TX1, Jetson TX2 (including Jetson TX2 NX), and Jetson Nano devices (including Jetson Nano 2GB) found in the NVIDIA JetPack software developers kit. The patches were delivered as part of NVIDIA’s June security bulletin, released Friday. Most Important PatchThe most severe bug, tracked as CVE‑2021‑34372, opens the Jetson framework to a buffer-overflow attack by an adversary. According to the NVIDIA security bulletin, the attacker would need network access to a system to carry out an attack, but the company warned the vulnerability is not complex to exploit and that an adversary with little to low access rights could launch it. It added that an attack could give an adversary persistent access to components – other than the NVIDIA chipset targeted – and allow a hacker to manipulate and or sabotage a targeted system.

“[The Jetson] driver contains a vulnerability in the NVIDIA OTE protocol message parsing code where an integer overflow in a malloc() size calculation leads to a buffer overflow on the heap, which might result in information disclosure, escalation of privileges and denial of service (DoS),” according to the security bulletin, posted on Friday.

Oblivious transfer extensions (OTE) are low-level cryptographic algorithms used by Jetson chipsets to process private-set-intersection protocols used to secure data as the chip processes data.

Six of the bugs, if exploited, could allow a local attacker to trigger a DoS attack.

One of the bugs (CVE‑2021‑34373), with a 7.9 severity rating, impacts Jetson’s trusted Linux kernel and opens the door to a heap-based buffer overflow attack. This type attack is directed at the chip’s heap data memory framework, where the component is manipulated to generate errors.

“Trusty trusted Linux kernel (TLK) contains a vulnerability in the NVIDIA TLK kernel where a lack of heap hardening could cause heap overflows, which might lead to information disclosure and denial of service,” NVIDIA wrote.
See Also: Offensive Security Tool: CloudFail Besides firmware, the chipmaker issued patches (CVE‑2021‑34372 through CVE‑2021‑34397) to address endpoint software for Jetson TX1, TX2 series, TX2 NX, AGX Xavier series, Xavier NX, Nano and Nano 2GB. For those bugs, NVIDIA credited bug hunter Frédéric Perriot of the Apple Media Products RedTeam for reporting the issues.

Finding Vulnerabilities
https://www.reddit.com/r/Pentesting/comments/o5l5il/finding_vulnerabilities/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Hi, I have some queries. If we want to check or find websites having vulnerabilities ,do we have to try every website one by one and try exploit vulnerabilities method (for eg. Php shell upload) on each? Or there are specific tools to find vulnerability. Suppose if I found 700 subdomains for a website ,So do I need to do as I said above (one by one for every subdomain.? For eg. If I am trying php shell upload to a website but I am not able to see the file location address . So does it mean the website is not vulnerable to a php shell upload attack.? <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/Arav_b (https://www.reddit.com/user/Arav_b)

Swift-Attack - Unit Tests For Blue Teams To Aid With Building Detections For Some Common macOS Post Exploitation Methods
http://www.kitploit.com/2021/06/swift-attack-unit-tests-for-blue-teams.html

Unit tests for blue teams (https://www.kitploit.com/search/label/Blue%20Teams) to aid with building detections for some common macOS post exploitation (https://www.kitploit.com/search/label/Post%20Exploitation) methods. I have included some post exploitation (https://www.kitploit.com/search/label/Exploitation) examples using both command line (https://www.kitploit.com/search/label/Command%20Line) history (https://www.kitploit.com/search/label/History) and on disk binaries (which should be easier for detection) as well as post exploitation examples using API calls only (which will be more difficult for detection). The post exploitation examples included here are not all encompassing. Instead these are just some common examples that I thought w ould be useful to conduct unit tests around. I plan to continue to add to this project over time with additional unit tests. All of these tests run locally and return results to stdout (i.e., Swift-Attack does not connect to a server).
Steps:
git clone https://github.com/cedowens/Swift-Attack Ensure you have installed swift and developer tools (can install from the mac app store) open the xcodeproj file in XCode Build in XCode The compiled app will be dropped to something like: Users//Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Swift-Attack-[random]/Build/Products/Debug/Swift-Attack.app cd to the directory above cd Swift-Attack.app/Contents/MacOS (you can run the macho from here or copy it elsewhere and run...up to you) grant the Swift-Attack macho full disk access to ensure you can run all of the tests without TCC issues run the following to remove any quarantine attributes: xattr -c Swift-Attack Run Swift-Attack: ./Swift-Attack -h

Usage:
You can run Swift-Attack with a single option or multiple options ./Swift-Attack [option1] [option2]... I also included a simple macro.txt file (unobfuscated) for testing parent-child relationships around office macro executions on macOS. I did not obfuscate it since the focus is on parent-child relationship visibility/detection. If you want to test with an obfuscated macro, I have a repo at github.com/cedowens/MacC2 that contains an obfuscated macro. I also did not include any persistence items, since in my opinion it is best to just clone and test persistence using Leo Pitt's persistent JXA repo https://github.com/D00MFist/PersistentJXA. This repo is by far the most comprehensive and current repo that I know of for macOS persistence. I recently ported some of the PersistentJXA repos over to Swift: https://github.com/cedowens/Persistent-Swift
Unit Tests Included:
Prompt using osascript binary Prompt via API calls Clipboard dump using osascript binary Clipboard dump using API calls Screenshot using screencapture binary Screenshot using API calls Shell commands Dumping zsh history Security tool enumeration Grabbing system info using osascript binary Grabbing system info via API calls Dumping ssh, aws, gcp, and azure keys on disk Dumping browser history (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) Dumping Quarantine history Office Macro: I included a simple office macro that connects to local host. Note: the macro will invoke curl to make a GET request using python to http://127.0.0.1/testing when executed by clicking the "Enable Macros" button. This will allow you to test detections for parent-child relationships around macro execution. Note: this simple test does not include any obfuscation, since the test is really more geared towards parent-child relationships. You can use another repo of mine at https://github.com/cedowens/MacC2 to test with obfuscated macros. To use, just simply paste the contents of "macro.txt" into an office Doc, save as a macro enabled document or as 97-2004 document format (ex: .doc, .xls, etc.), and click "Enable Macros" when opening the doc to execute. Installer Package: I included TestInstaller.pkg file to test for detections around a basic installer package. This installer package includes a preinstall script which runs in bash and drops com.simple.agent.plist to /Library/LaunchDaemons/ and drops test.js (simple popup prompt) to /Library/Application Support/. The com.simple.agent.plist file simply runs osascript against /Library/Application Support/test.js. It also includes a postinstall script which runs in bash and loads the com.simple.agent.plis using launchctl load. While holding the Control button click Open on TestInstaller.pkg to run it. TestInstaller.pkg will drop the aforementioned files as root. CVE-2021-30657 Bypass Payloads: Two sample payloads (both make curl requests to localhost when detonated) to test two different types of payloads that abuse cve-2021-30657.
