MD5 weakness Proof of Concept
By: Michael Shinn  on: Tue 30 of Dec., 2008 13:45 EST  (1375 Reads)
Vulnerability

MD5 (external link) (cache) weaknesses have been known for some time now and security researchers have been recommending against its use for a few years, while predicting that a realistic attack was just around the corner. Research was published today that demonstrates that realistic attacks are possible now. The research deals with a proof of concept collision attack to create fake CA certificate using MD5. The researchers state that a knowledgeable attacker can fake a valid signature on a CA certificate, thereby making it possible to hijack the PKI used to sign SSL certs by pretending to be a valid CA. The researchers website MD5 considered harmful today (external link) (cache) has the details. In short, nothing important should use MD5 anymore.

Security Tool

For those that are not familiar with it, SRI has a great project called BotHunter?. Its a snort derivative using special rules and some SRI code to detect bots on your network and to anonymously share data with the BotHunter? folks. The installer is top notch and we really like what the project is doing. Check it out yourself at http://www.bothunter.net (external link)

Virtual Patch for Hidden Text Exploit
By: Michael Shinn  on: Thu 24 of April, 2008 18:00 EDT  (3122 Reads)

SANS ISC (external link) (cache) brings us a report (external link) (cache) of a new method spammers are using to put links into blogs using hidden text. We don't consider this a WordPress vuln, but rather a class of problems revolving around hidden test. This is very reminiscent of the iframe attacks using hidden iframes. In the spirit of making the world a nicer place, we're publishing Modsec rules to protect against this problem. You can download the rules from here. Right now its one rule, but as we discover other ways to protect against this we'll update the file. If you are running ASL or have a subscription to the real time rules, this is included in the latest update automatically.
