Cloudquery - Transforms Your Cloud Infrastructure Into SQL Database For Easy Monitoring, Governance And Security

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hXoJmQO6MBE/YUOwaGJcWzI/AAAAAAAAu8Y/dm7EJl3bdXkp3tLKc_xgCUwww5-2NTXEACK4BGAYYCw/w640-h128/cloudquery_1_logo-714769.png CloudQuery transforms your cloud infrastructure into queryable SQL for easy monitoring, governance and security. What is CloudQuery and why use it?CloudQuery pulls, normalize, expose and monitor your cloud infrastructure and SaaS apps as SQL database. This abstracts various scattered APIs enabling you to define security, governance, cost and compliance policies with SQL.

CloudQuery can be easily extended to more resources and SaaS providers (open an Issue).

CloudQuery comes with built-in policy packs such as: AWS CIS (more is coming!).

Think about CloudQuery as a compliance-as-code tool inspired by tools like osquery and terraform, cool right? Links* Homepage: https://cloudquery.io
* Releases: https://github.com/cloudquery/cloudquery/releases
* Documentation: https://docs.cloudquery.io
* Hub (Provider and schema docs): https://hub.cloudquery.io/ Supported providers (Actively expanding)Checkout https://hub.cloudquery.io

If you want us to add a new provider or resource please open an Issue.

See docs for developing new provider. Download & installYou can download the precompiled binary from releases, or using CLI: export OS=Darwin # Possible values: Linux,Windows,Darwin
curl -L https://github.com/cloudquery/cloudquery/releases/latest/download/cloudquery_${OS}_x86_64 -o cloudquery
chmod a+x cloudquery
./cloudquery --help

# if you want to download a specific version and not latest use the following endpoint
export VERSION= # specifiy a version
curl -L https://github.com/cloudquery/cloudquery/releases/download/${VERSION}/cloudquery_${OS}_x86_64 -o cloudqueryHomebrew brew install cloudquery/tap/cloudquery
# After initial install you can upgrade the version via:
brew upgrade cloudqueryQuick StartRunningFirst generate a config.hclfile that will describe which resources you want cloudquery to pull, normalize and transform resources to the specified SQL database by running the following command:

azure gcp okta] # cloudquery init gcp azure # This will generate a config containing gcp and azure providers # cloudquery init --help # Show all possible auto generated configs and flags ">cloudquery init aws # choose one or more from: [aws azure gcp okta]
# cloudquery init gcp azure # This will generate a config containing gcp and azure providers
# cloudquery init --help # Show all possible auto generated configs and flags

Once your config.hclis generated run the following command to fetch the resources:

postgresql with docker # docker run -p 5432:5432 -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=pass -d postgres cloudquery fetch --dsn "postgres://postgres:pass@localhost:5432/postgres" # cloudquery fetch --help # Show all possible fetch flags "># you can spawn a local postgresql with docker
# docker run -p 5432:5432 -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=pass -d postgres
cloudquery fetch --dsn "postgres://postgres:pass@localhost:5432/postgres"
# cloudquery fetch --help # Show all possible fetch flags

Currently, cloudquery support AWS CIS policy pack (it is under active development, so it doesn't cover the whole spec yet).

To run AWS CIS pack enter the following commands (make sure you fetched all the resources beforehand by the fetchcommand): ./cloudquery policy --path=You can also create your own policy file. E.g.:

CREATE VIEW my_custom_view AS ... queries: - name: "Find thing that violates policy" query: > SELECT account_id, arn FROM ... ">views:
- name: "my_custom_view"
query: >
CREATE VIEW my_custom_view AS ...
queries:
- name: "Find thing that violates policy"
query: >
SELECT account_id, arn FROM ...

The policycommand uses the policy file path ./policy.ymlby default, but this can be overridden via the --pathflag, or the CQ_POLICY_PATHenvironment variable.

Concealed Position : Bring Your Own Print Driver Privilege Escalation Tool

Concealed Position is a local privilege escalation attack against Windows using the concept of “Bring Your Own Vulnerability”. Specifically, Concealed Position (CP) uses the as designed package point and print logic in Windows that allows a low privilege user to stage and install printer drivers. CP specifically installs drivers with known vulnerabilities which are then exploited to escalate to SYSTEM. Concealed Position was first presented at DEF CON 29. What Exploits Are Available

Concealed Position offers four exploits – all with equally dumb names:

* ACIDDAMAGE – CVE-2021-35449 – Lexmark Universal Print Driver LPE
* RADIANTDAMAGE – CVE-2021-38085 – Canon TR150 Print Driver LPE
* POISONDAMAGE – CVE-2019-19363 – Ricoh PCL6 Print Driver LPE
* SLASHINGDAMAGE – CVE-2020-1300 – Windows Print Spooler LPE

The exploits are neat because, besides SLASHINGDAMAGE, they will continue working even after the issues are patched. The only mechanism Windows has to stop users from using old drivers is to revoke the driver’s certificate – something that is not(?) historically done. But Which Exploit Should I Use?!

Probably ACIDDAMAGE. RADIANTDAMAGE and POISONDAMAGE are race conditions (to overwrite a DLL) and SLASHINGDAMAGE damage, hopefully, is patched most everywhere. How Does It Work?

Concealed Position has two parts. An evil printer and a client. The client reaches out to the server, grabs a driver, gets the driver stored in the driver store, installs the printer, and exploits the install process. Easy! In MSAPI speak, the attack goes something like this:

Step 1: Stage the driver in the driver store
client to server: GetPrinterDriver
server to client: Response with driver
Stage 2: Install the driver from the driver store
client: InstallPrinterDriverFromPackage
Stage 3: Add a local printer (exploitation stage)
client: Add printer

It is important to note that SLASHINGDAMAGE doesn’t actually work like that though. SLASHINGDAMAGE is an implementation of the evil printer attack described at DEFCON 28 (2020) and has long since been patched. I just so happen to enjoy the attack (it sparked the rest of this development) and figured I’d leave the exploit in my evil server… as confusing as that may be. Is This A Windows Vulnerability?

Arguably, yes. The driver store is a “trusted collection of … third-party driver packages” that requires administrator access to modify. Using GetPrinterDrivera low privileged attacker can stage arbitrary drivers into the store. This, to me, crosses a clear security boundary.

Microsoft seemed to agree when they issued CVE-2021-34481.

Although… it’s arguable that this is simply a feature of the system and not a vulnerability at all. It really doesn’t matter all that much. An attacker can escalate to SYSTEM on standard Windows installs. Which Verions Of Windows Are Affected By CVE-2021-34481?

At least Windows 8.1 and above. How Do I Use These Tools?

Simple! So simple there will be many paragraphs to describe it! CP Server

First, let’s look at cp_server’s command line options:

C:\Users\albinolobster\concealed_position\build\x64\Release\bin>cp_server.exe
