NIST’s subject matter experts have worked over the last year to continue expanding the CSF 2.0 implementation reso…
AWS EKS was logging ServiceAccount tokens in plaintext, including those used for AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity and connecting to the Kubernetes API server. This issue affected clusters between March 2020 and May 2021, potentially exposing sensitive credentials in CloudWatch logs.
Azure iPaaS services, such as Logic Apps, separate the Control Plane (management) from the Data Plane (execution), but a flaw in this model enabled undetectable data harvesting. An attacker with Azure Reader access to workflow run history can silently extract sensitive data from executions, including secrets and API responses. This is possible because execution details are exposed via the Control Plane, bypassing Data Plane access controls. The root cause of this issue is the unintended exposur…
Azure Key Vault enforces a separation between the Control Plane (management) and Data Plane (secrets access). However, a flaw in this isolation allows unauthorized users to enumerate secrets and keys within a vault. By having Reader access or lesser privileges on a Key Vault, an attacker could leverage Azure Resource Explorer to access metadata about stored secrets. This is due to unintended exposure through the Control Plane, which should not provide insight into Data Plane resources. The root…
Discover how cybercriminals steal browser fingerprints to mimic users, bypass security measures, and commit online fraud. Learn how to protect your digital identity.
AWS solution 'Dynamic Image Transformation for Amazon CloudFront', prior to version 6.2.6, contains a configuration weakness. The Lambda role doesn't constrain bucket access, and the environment variable can be set to a wildcard, allowing access to any bucket. This could potentially lead to unintended access to sensitive images across multiple buckets in the AWS account.
Discover how ransomware has evolved into a sophisticated cyber threat, with groups like RansomHub leading the charge. Learn more about their adaptability, TTPs, and the rise of Ransomware-as-a-service in this first-of-three-part trilogy.

A configuration change in Entra ID allowed unprivileged users to update their own User Principal Names (UPNs) through interfaces like the Entra admin center and PowerShell. This could lead to impersonation risks. Microsoft quickly fixed the issue after it was reported. The vulnerability affected synchronized hybrid environments as well.
A vulnerability in AWS IAM Sign-in login flow could allow attackers to enumerate IAM usernames by measuring server response times. This issue affected AWS Sign-in IAM User login flow prior to January 16, 2025. AWS has since introduced a delay in response times across all authentication failure scenarios to mitigate the vulnerability.
Explore how Performance Monitor (PerfMon) counters can be used as alternative methods for detecting Kerberos roasting attacks, moving beyond the traditional reliance on Windows Events 4768/4769.

Three SSRF vulnerabilities were discovered in Azure DevOps, allowing access to internal metadata endpoints and potential CRLF injection. The issues affected the endpointproxy and Service Hooks functionality. DNS rebinding could bypass initial fixes. Microsoft awarded $15,000 in bug bounties for the findings.
Real estate scams are on the rise as fraudsters exploit online platforms to deceive victims into paying for fake properties. This blog dives into how these scams operate in the Middle East, explains the tools and techniques used to detect and disrupt money-mule networks, and provides practical tips for staying safe.
A vulnerability in AWS CloudWatch dashboard sharing allowed viewers to access EC2 instance tags and potentially invoke Lambda functions in the source account. The issue stemmed from a logic bug in the AWS Console combined with a "fail open" condition in Amazon Cognito. AWS has since patched the vulnerability.
AWS identified two vulnerabilities in specific versions of native clients for Amazon WorkSpaces, Amazon AppStream 2.0, and Amazon DCV. These issues could allow man-in-the-middle attacks, potentially giving attackers access to remote sessions. Affected versions include WorkSpaces clients 5.20.0 or earlier, AppStream 2.0 Windows client 1.1.1326 or earlier, and various DCV clients. AWS recommends upgrading to patched versions to address these security concerns.
