Unleashing Worms And Extracting Data
Posted Sep 16, 2024
Authored by Ben Nassi, Ron Bitton, Stav Cohen | Site arxiv.org

Whitepaper called Unleashing Worms and Extracting Data: Escalating the Outcome of Attacks against RAG-based Inference in Scale and Severity Using Jailbreaking. In this paper, the authors show that with the ability to jailbreak a GenAI model, attackers can escalate the outcome of attacks against RAG-based GenAI-powered applications in severity and scale.

OpenSSH Server regreSSHion Remote Code Execution
Posted Jul 1, 2024
Authored by Qualys Security Advisory | Site blog.qualys.com

Qualys has discovered a a signal handler race condition vulnerability in OpenSSH's server, sshd. If a client does not authenticate within LoginGraceTime seconds (120 by default, 600 in old OpenSSH versions), then sshd's SIGALRM handler is called asynchronously, but this signal handler calls various functions that are not async-signal-safe - for example, syslog(). This race condition affects sshd in its default configuration.

New North Korean Based Backdoor Packs A Punch
Posted Jun 21, 2024
Authored by Bart Blaze, Nguyen Nguyen | Site cyberarmor.tech

In recent months, North Korean based threat actors have been ramping up attack campaigns in order to achieve a myriad of their objectives, whether it be financial gain or with espionage purposes in mind. The North Korean cluster of attack groups is peculiar seeing there is quite some overlap with one another, and it is not always straightforward to attribute a specific campaign to a specific threat actor. This is no different in what the authors are presenting in this paper today, where they analyze a new threat campaign, initially discovered in late May, featuring multiple layers and which ultimately delivers a seemingly new and previously undocumented backdoor. These actions appear tied to Kimsuky and is specifically focused on Aerospace and Defense companies.

Surveilling The Masses With Wi-Fi-Based Positioning Systems
Posted May 23, 2024
Authored by Dave Levin, Erik Rye | Site cs.umd.edu

In this paper, the authors show that Apple's WPS can be abused to create a privacy threat on a global scale. They present an attack that allows an unprivileged attacker to amass a worldwide snapshot of Wi-Fi BSSID geolocations in only a matter of days. Their attack makes few assumptions, merely exploiting the fact that there are relatively few dense regions of allocated MAC address space. Applying this technique over the course of a year, they learned the precise locations of over 2 billion BSSIDs around the world. The privacy implications of such massive datasets become more stark when taken longitudinally, allowing the attacker to track devices' movements.

GoFetch: Breaking Constant-Time Cryptographic Implementations Using Data Memory-Dependent Prefetchers
Posted Mar 22, 2024
Authored by Daniel Genkin, David Kohlbrenner, Christopher W. Fletcher, Boru Chen, Pradyumna Shome, Yingchen Wang, Riccardo Paccagnella | Site gofetch.fail

This whitepaper shows that the security threat from DMPs is significantly worse than previously thought and demonstrates the first end-to-end attacks on security-critical software using the Apple m-series DMP. Undergirding the author's attacks is a new understanding of how DMPs behave which shows, among other things, that the Apple DMP will activate on behalf of any victim program and attempt to leak any cached data that resembles a pointer.

Generic And Automated Drive-By GPU Cache Attacks From The Browser
Posted Mar 19, 2024
Authored by Daniel Gruss, Andreas Kogler, Fabian Rauscher, Lukas Giner, Daniel De Almeida Braga, Roland Czerny, Christoph Gruber | Site ginerlukas.com

In this paper, the authors present the first GPU cache side-channel attack from within the browser, more specifically from the restricted WebGPU environment. The foundation for our generic and automated attacks are self-configuring primitives applicable to a wide variety of devices, which they demonstrate on a set of 11 desktop GPUs from 5 different generations and 2 vendors.

GhostRace: Exploiting And Mitigating Speculative Race Conditions
Posted Mar 13, 2024
Authored by Cristiano Giuffrida, Anil Kurmus, Hany Ragab, Andrea Mambretti | Site download.vusec.net

Race conditions arise when multiple threads attempt to access a shared resource without proper synchronization, often leading to vulnerabilities such as concurrent use-after-free. To mitigate their occurrence, operating systems rely on synchronization primitives such as mutexes, spinlocks, etc. In this paper, the authors present GhostRace, the first security analysis of these primitives on speculatively executed code paths. Their key finding is that all the common synchronization primitives can be microarchitecturally bypassed on speculative paths, turning all architecturally race-free critical regions into Speculative Race Conditions (SRCs).

Stealing Part Of A Production Language Model
Posted Mar 13, 2024
Authored by David Rolnick, Jonathan Hayase, Eric Wallace, Nicholas Carlini, Arthur Conmy, Thomas Steinke, Matthew Jagielski, Florian Tramer, Krishnamurthy Dvijotham, Daniel Paleka, Katherine Lee, Milad Nasr, A. Feder Cooper

In this whitepaper, the authors introduce the first model-stealing attack that extracts precise, nontrivial information from black-box production language models like OpenAI's ChatGPT or Google's PaLM-2. Specifically, their attack recovers the embedding projection layer (up to symmetries) of a transformer model, given typical API access. For under $20 USD, their attack extracts the entire projection matrix of OpenAI's ada and babbage language models. They thereby confirm, for the first time, that these black-box models have a hidden dimension of 1024 and 2048, respectively. They also recover the exact hidden dimension size of the gpt-3.5-turbo model, and estimate it would cost under $2,000 in queries to recover the entire projection matrix. They conclude with potential defenses and mitigations, and discuss the implications of possible future work that could extend this attack.

The KeyTrap Denial-of-Service Algorithmic Complexity Attacks On DNS
Posted Feb 22, 2024
Authored by Niklas Vogel, Haya Schulmann, Michael Waidner, Elias Heftrig | Site athene-center.de

In this paper, the authors show that the design of DNSSEC is flawed. Exploiting vulnerable recommendations in the DNSSEC standards, they developed a new class of DNSSEC-based algorithmic complexity attacks on DNS, they dubbed KeyTrap attacks. All popular DNS implementations and services are vulnerable. With just a single DNS packet, the KeyTrap attacks lead to a 2.000.000x spike in CPU instruction count in vulnerable DNS resolvers, stalling some for as long as 16 hours. This devastating effect prompted major DNS vendors to refer to KeyTrap as "the worst attack on DNS ever discovered". Exploiting KeyTrap, an attacker could effectively disable Internet access in any system utilizing a DNSSEC-validating resolver.

NFC Relay Attack On Tesla Model Y
Posted Feb 21, 2024
Authored by Josep Pi Rodriguez | Site ioactive.com

This paper will walk you through the proof-of-concept and technical details of exploitation for IOActive's recent NFC relay attack on the newest Tesla vehicle, the Model Y. To successfully carry out the attack, IOActive reverse-engineered the NFC protocol Tesla uses between the NFC card and the vehicle, and they then created custom firmware modifications that allowed a Proxmark RDV4.0 device to relay NFC communications over Bluetooth/Wi-Fi using the Proxmark's BlueShark module.
