Background The discovery and analysis of vulnerabilities is a critical aspect of cybersecurity research. Today, we will dive into CVE-2023-1829, a vulnerability in the cls_tcindex network traffic classifier found by Valis. We will explore the process of exploiting and examining this vulnerability, shedding light on the intricate details and potential consequences. We have thoroughly tested our exploit on Ubuntu 22.04 with kernel version 5.15.0-25, which was built from the official 5....

TLDR; We began our work on Samsung immediately after the release of the Pwn2Own Toronto 2022 target list. In this article, we will dive into the details of an open-redirect vulnerability discovered during the Pwn2Own 2022 event and how we exploited it on a Samsung S22 device. By breaking down the technical aspects and using code snippets, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of this critical security flaw. To begin, I revisited our team’s paper (written by Li Jiantao and Nguyễn Hoàng Thạch) from previous year, where two bugs were identified....

Introduction While analyzing CVE-2022-41082, also known as ProxyNotShell, we discovered this vulnerability which we have detailed in this blog. However, for a comprehensive understanding, we highly recommend reading the thorough analysis written by team ZDI. To aid in understanding, we present a visual representation of CVE-2022-41082 below. The sink of ProxyNotShell: //System.Management.Automation.InternalDeserializer.ReadOneObject() internal object ReadOneObject(out string streamName) { //... Type targetTypeForDeserialization = psobject.GetTargetTypeForDeserialization(this._typeTable); //[1] if (null != targetTypeForDeserialization) { Exception ex = null; try { object obj2 = LanguagePrimitives....

Summary A command injection vulnerability exists in CS-Cart’s HTML to PDF converter (https://github.com/cscart/pdf) allowing unauthenticated attackers to achieve remote command execution (RCE). The vulnerability only affects the HTML to PDF converter service and the default hosted service at converter.cart-services.com (maintained by CS-Cart’s development team) used by the PDF converter plugin, and does not allow for RCE against base installations of CS-Cart. Product Background In CS-Cart v4.13.2, the HTML to PDF converter is an optional plugin (disabled by default) for printing PDF documents in CS-Cart....

Upon finding the vulnerability, our team member, Ngo Wei Lin (@Creastery), immediately reported it to the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) on 19th March 2022, who fixed the important issue with a fix commited in the repo within seven days, which is impressive and a much faster response than other Microsoft bugs which we reported previously. The fix was pushed down to Azure Cosmos DB Explorer on 31st March 2022....

STAR LABS SG PTE. LTD. (STAR Labs) announced today that it has become a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) for the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE®) system, a global cybersecurity community. As a CNA, STAR LABS is authorized to assign CVE Identifiers（CVE IDs）to newly discovered vulnerabilities and publicly disclose information about these vulnerabilities through CVE Records. Identifying vulnerabilities with CVE IDs can speed up the awareness and understanding of those vulnerabilities, enabling security researchers and system managers to expedite solutions....

Background Lately, my focus has been on discovering any potential vulnerabilities in KEPServerEX. KEPServerEX is the industry’s leading connectivity platform that provides a single source of industrial automation data to all your applications. Users can connect, manage, monitor, and control diverse automation devices and software applications through one intuitive user interface. This software employs multiple anti-debugging measures, making it challenging to discover any vulnerabilities and performing fuzzing on it. In this regard, I would like to share my perspective on the issue and my strategy for circumventing these measures....
