CrowdStrike Counter Adversary Operations is committed to analyzing active exploitation campaigns and detecting and blocking zero-days to protect our customers. In July 2023, the CrowdStrike Falcon® Complete managed detection and response (MDR) team discovered an unknown exploit kit leveraging a still-unknown vulnerability affecting the Windows Error Reporting (WER) component.
As secrets have a role in most security incidents, Snyk is excited to partner with GitGuardian to help development and security teams scale their security programs and further reduce an application's attack surface at every stage of the code-to-cloud lifecycle. We recently spoke at GitGuardian's first digital conference, CodeSecDays, joining security leaders from Chainguard, Doppler, Kondukto, and more — who shared insights on software signing, open source security, and secrets management.
The Fireblocks cryptography research team has uncovered BitForge – a series of zero-day vulnerabilities in some of the most widely adopted implementations of multi-party computation (MPC) protocols, including GG-18, GG-20, and Lindell17.
This vulnerability allows an attacker to extract a full private key from a wallet implementing Lindell17 2PC protocol, by extracting a single bit in every signature attempt (256 in total). Coinbase WaaS, Zengo and other libraries have been patched.
This newfound vulnerability allows an attacker to extract a full private key from any wallet using the GG18 and GG20 protocols. More than 10 wallets and libraries have been found vulnerable, including Binance custody.
The SafeBreach Labs team is committed to conducting original research to uncover new threats and ensure our Hacker’s Playbook provides the most comprehensive collection of attacks. As part of our recent research efforts, we discovered a vulnerability in the Windows Defender update process that could effectively allow an unprivileged user to take full control of the Windows Defender tool and leverage it for future malicious activities.
