https://threatpost.com/ccleaner-attacker...y%20digest      CCleaner Attackers Intended To Deploy Keylogger In Third Stage   by Lindsey O'Donnell March 12, 2018 , 12:49 pm
CANCUN, Mexico – As investigations continue into a backdoor that was planted in the CCleaner utility in 2017, Avast said it has found that the threat actors behind the attack were planning to install a third round of ShadowPad malware on compromised computers.

Avast, which acquired the maker of CCleaner Piriform in July, said that it has been continually investigating the malware attack on the popular PC cleaning tool CCleaner (formerly Crap Cleaner) since it was first revealed in September 2017. While the company has not found evidence of a third stage binary on infected computers, it has found evidence of “what the intended third stage might have been,” according to Avast speaking at Kaspersky Lab’s Security Analyst Summit last week.
According to Avast, it has found that the malware in question spread to Piriform’s build server sometime between March and July 4, 2017.

Avast in September brought the issue to light, saying that the 32-bit versions of CCleaner V5.33.6162 and CCleaner Cloud V1.07.3191 – which had been installed on up to 2.27 million computers – had been infected by malware collecting data such as computer names and lists of installed software and running processes. In addition to data collection, Avast said that the malware also had downloader capabilities which were active on 40 PCs.   In September, Avast and Kaspersky Lab’s Costin Raiu said that they believed Chinese cyber espionage group Axiom was behind the attack.   “Up until now, we have not found any third stage binary on the affected computers,” the company said. “However, we now have found evidence that leads us to the assumption of what the intended third stage might have been.”

While eliminating the threat from the Piriform network, Avast started consolidating and inspecting the Piriform infrastructure and computers, and found the preliminary versions of the stage one and stage two binary on them. Then, on four computers on the Piriform network, the company found evidence of a specialized multi-purpose and modular malware framework called  ShadowPad being installed.

“It turned out we found an older version of stage two inside the network itself trying to download a tool called ShadowPad,” Martin Hron, security researcher at Avast, told Threatpost during SAS.

ShadowPad is a cyber attack platform that criminals deploy in networks to gain remote control capabilities, keylogging functionality and data exfiltration.

Hron said that the tool was installed on the four Piriform computers on April 13th, 2017 after Avast found log files of ShadowPad which were encrypted keystrokes from a keylogger installed on the computers.

“The version of the ShadowPad tool is custom-built, leading us to the assumption that it was explicitly built for Piriform,” said the company. “By installing a tool like ShadowPad, the cybercriminals were able to fully control the system remotely and collect all the credentials and insights into the operations on the targeted computer. Besides the keylogger tool, other tools were installed on the four computers, including a password stealer, and tools providing capacities to install further software and plugins on the targeted computer remotely.”

ShadowPad was first discovered in August after researchers at Kaspersky Lab found a backdoor in NetSarang’s server management software package. The researchers said that the modular platform could download and execute arbitrary code, create processes, and maintain a virtual file system in the registry, all of which are encrypted and stored in locations unique to each victim.

“We don’t have a sample of the third stage payload distributed via the CCleaner hack to any of these computers, and it is not clear if it was the attacker’s intention to attack all 40 of them just a few or none. We continue investigating the data dumps from the computers, and will post an update as soon as we learn more,” the company said.

By Catalin Cimpanu  
March 12, 2018 09:36 AM      Stating with Firefox 60 —expected to be released in May 2018— websites won't be able to use Firefox to access data from sensors that provide proximity distances and ambient light information.

Firefox was allowing websites to access this data via the W3C Proximity and Ambient Light APIs.

But at the start of the month, Mozilla engineers have decided to disable access to these two APIs by default. The APIs won't be removed, but their status is now controlled by two Firefox flags that will ship disabled by default.

This means users will have to manually enable the two flags before any website can use Firefox to extract proximity and ambient light data from the device's underlying sensors.

A total of five new flags added
The two flags will be available in Firefox's about:config settings page. The screenshot below shows the latest Firefox Nightly version, where the two flags are now disabled, while other sensor APIs are enabled.     The Firefox code commit in which these two flags have been added also includes three other flags —to enable or disable all sensors APIs, to enable/disable the Device Orientation Sensor API, and to enable/disable the Motion Sensor API.
These three flags will ship enabled by default, as access to these two APIs is needed by a broad range of a wide range of mobile websites.

Privacy concerns over the Proximity and Ambient Light APIs
The Proximity and Ambient Light sensors are both new and highly controversial. A key factor in the decision to ship these two APIs disabled by default is the work of privacy expert Lukasz Olejnik.

Olejnik published two research reports on the possible ways attackers and advertisers could abuse these two APIs.

For example, Olejnik argued that the W3C Proximity Sensor API could allow websites and advertisers to query the position of nearby objects in relation to a user's smartphone or tablet. Additionally, he also argued that malicious sites could use the W3C Ambient Light Sensor API to steal browser data.

Shipping these two APIs off by default takes care of some of Olejnik's concerns, albeit it does not mitigate the risk altogether.

"More user control is always good," Olejnik said regarding Mozilla's decision.

WinRAR is a powerful archive manager. It can backup your data and reduce the size of email attachments, decompress RAR, ZIP and other files downloaded from Internet and create new archives in RAR and ZIP file format. 

Changes in Version 5.60 beta 1

  1. We updated WinRAR graphics.

     We are grateful to http://weirdsgn.com and http://icondesignlab.com
     designers participated in this endeavor and proud to announce that
     WinRAR uses the new icon set prepared by Aditya Nugraha Putra
     from http://weirdsgn.com.

     Previous WinRAR icons are available as interface theme here:
     https://rarlab.com/themes/WinRAR_Classic....theme.rar
 
  2. "Repair" command efficiency is improved for recovery record protected
     RAR5 archives. Now it can detect deletions and insertions of unlimited
     size also as shuffled data including data taken from several recovery
     record protected archives and merged into a single file in arbitrary
     order.
 
  3. "Turn PC off when done" archiving option is changed to "When done"
     drop down list, so you can turn off, hibernate or sleep your PC
     after completing archiving.

  4. Use -ioff or -ioff1 command line switch to turn PC off,
     -ioff2 to hibernate and -ioff3 to sleep your PC after completing
     an operation.

  5. If encoding of comment file specified in -z<file> switch is not
     defined with -sc switch, RAR attempts to detect UTF-8, UTF-16LE
     and UTF-16BE encodings based on the byte order mask and data
     validity tests.

  6. WinRAR attempts to detect ANSI, OEM and UTF-8 encodings of
     ZIP archive comments automatically.
 
  7. "Internal viewer/Use DOS encoding" option in "Settings/Viewer"
     is replaced with "Internal viewer/Autodetect encoding".
     If "Autodetect encoding" is enabled, the internal viewer attempts
     to detect ANSI (Windows), OEM (DOS), UTF-8 and UTF-16 encodings.

  8. Normally Windows Explorer context menu contains only extraction
     commands if single archive has been right clicked. You can override
     this by specifying one or more space separated masks in "Always display
     archiving items for" option in Settings/Integration/Context menu items",
     so archiving commands are always displayed for these file types
     even if file was recognized as archive. If you wish both archiving
     and extraction commands present for all archives, place "*" here.
 
  9. SFX module "SetupCode" command accepts an optional integer parameter
     allowing to control mapping of setup program and SFX own error codes.
     It is also accessible as "Exit code adjustment" option
     in "Advanced SFX options/Setup" dialog.
 
 10. New "Show more information" WinRAR command line -im switch.
     It can be used with "t" command to issue a message also in case of
     successful archive test result. Without this switch "t" command
     completes silently if no errors are found.

     This switch is applicable only to WinRAR.exe and ignored by console
     RAR.exe.

 11. If a wrong password is entered when unpacking an encrypted file
     in ZIP archive, WinRAR proposes to enter a valid password
     for same file again instead of aborting extraction.

 12. If a wrong password is entered when opening or unpacking RAR archive
     with encrypted file names, WinRAR proposes to enter a valid password
     again instead of aborting the operation. Previous versions already
     did so for RAR archives with encrypted file data, but aborted
     for archives with file name encryption.

 13. WinRAR recognizes GZIP files with arbitrary data preceding
     an actual GZIP archive, such as .scexe firmware files.

 14. @filelist parameter can be specified in "Files to add" field of
     archiving dialog. In this case WinRAR will attempt the list of archiving
     files from 'filelist' file, which should be the plain text, one file
     name per line.

 15. Info dialog:
     
     a) compression ratio graph is updated;

     b) "Names and data" is displayed in "Encryption" field for
        archives with encrypted file names.

 16. Full archive name is displayed if mouse pointer is placed over
     an archive name in the operation progress window. It can be useful
     if archive name is lengthy and does not fit to available window space.

 17. If -ts1 switch is used with -u or -f, file time comparison is performed
     with 1 second precision. Previosuly in such case we could wrongly treat
     an adding file as newer than archived just because we compared the high
     precision adding file time against the low precision archived file time.

 18. "Update" and "Fresh" commands ('u' and 'f' in the command line mode)
     quit immediately if no files are to be updated. Previously they created
     a temporary archive before quitting when updating archives with recovery
     record or quick open information.

 19. Prompt is issued after creating 500 volumes from WinRAR GUI shell,
     so user can continue or quit further archiving. It is done to prevent
     creating many thousands of volumes in case of wrongly entered
     volume size.

 20. WinRAR uses megabytes instead of bytes as default units for volume size
     field in the archiving dialog.

 21. "Repair" command issues "Recovery record is corrupt" message
     after repairing RAR5 archive containing a broken recovery record.
     Previously such message was issued only by "Test" command
     and "Repair" handled most of recovery record damages silently.

 22. Bugs fixed:

     a) fixed potential security issues when processing corrupt
        RAR archives;
     
     b) non-English characters in TAR files with PAX extended headers
        were not displayed correctly;

     c) "rar x arcname.rar .." command unpacked files to current folder
        instead of its parent;

     d) pasting files from Windows Explorer to archive opened in WinRAR
        blocked further copy and paste operations in Explorer until
        archiving was finished;

     e) SFX module issued "The specified password is incorrect" message
        infinitely not prompting for correct password once a wrong password
        was entered;

     f) folders time was always set when extracting ZIP archives even if
        "File time" options in the extraction dialog were turned off;

     g) if "Delete mode: Always" was selected when extracting
        and user pressed "Cancel" in the file overwrite or password prompt,
        an archive could be deleted even after cancelling extraction
        for .zip and .7z formats.

https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/...ack-691910       Pornhub users warned over 'cyber attack' that could infect devices with malware
It's affected millions of users apparently
ByJames RodgerSam DimmerDigital Development Editor
14:30, 10 MAR 2018UPDATED14:55, 10 MAR 2018      Potentially millions of visitors to adult website Pornhub could have been infected with malware, experts say.

Cyber security firm Proofpoint say a major attack has been uncovered where fake adverts for web browser updates were sent out.

They say the attack has been going on for more than a year with victims in many places, including the UK

It's since been shut down by Pornhub, the Coventry Telegraph reports .

The hack was carried out by a group known as KovCoreG, Proofpoint said, who hoped to infect users with an ad fraud malware known as Kovter.

This type of malicious software is traditionally used as a form of online advertising fraud to generate money through clicks on fake adverts.

In some cases a "clickbot" is installed which then requests and interacts with random adverts online.

In the case of Pornhub, Proofpoint said users were shown fake adverts urging them to click to download a new version or Flash update to their web browser - but would instead infect their computers.


Millions of users may have a malware problem
Pornhub has not commented on the incident.

Proofpoint warned that this technique of tricking users into clicking on fake adverts and infecting themselves was effective, and had the potential to reach "millions of web surfers" if used elsewhere.

"While the payload in this case is ad fraud malware, it could just as easily have been ransomware, an information stealer, or any other malware," the company said.

"Regardless, threat actors are following the money and looking to more effective combinations of social engineering, targeting, and pre-filtering to infect new victims at scale."

http://news.softpedia.com/news/microsoft...0143.shtml      Microsoft Reportedly Forcing Upgrade to Windows 10 Version 1709 on Some PCs

Report indicates this happens even with Windows Update turned off, without users being asked for authorization
Mar 9, 2018 06:42 GMT  ·  By Bogdan Popa ·  Share:      
Back in 2015 when it rolled out Windows 10, Microsoft turned to a rather aggressive strategy to boost adoption of the operating system, including what were described as forced upgrades that deployed the new software on a number of PCs without users giving their consent.

This reportedly happens once again, only that systems running older versions of Windows 10 are upgraded to version 1709 (Fall Creators Update), in some cases even if Windows Update is turned off.

A story from CW citing a number of user reports indicates that the upgrade is started with “no advanced warning,” adding that the alleged forced upgrade took place on computers running Windows 10 Anniversary Update (version 1607) and Windows 10 Creators Update (version 1703).

If Windows Update is turned off, which means that updates are automatically blocked on a specific computer, the upgrade is said to be performed with the Update Assistant.

Upgrade notifications
Oddly enough, Microsoft has published an advisory on March 5 which indicates that computers running Windows 10 versions older than Creators Update might see a notification stating that the latest security updates are not installed.

While an upgrade to Fall Creators Update shouldn’t be linked to security updates, Microsoft does state that “Windows Update will then try to update the device,” but guarantees that when you receive the update notification, nothing starts until the user clicks the “Update now” button to update the device.

Windows 10 Anniversary Update and Creators Update are still supported, which means that Microsoft is still shipping security updates to systems running any of these two versions. The original version of the OS and version 1511, however, have already reached end of service, and Microsoft emphasizes that it’s critical for these computers to upgrade to the latest Windows 10 release.

Upgrading these systems without users’ consent, however, is a strategy that has already backfired for Microsoft, as the company has been sued in the past by customers whose computers installed Windows 10 without authorization.
