Check Point Research https://research.checkpoint.com uncovered numerous findings that included WhatsApp, TikTok and Android Applications. We also published new findings about malware families including multiple types of Ransomware, malware on computers and mobile devices.
Vulnerabilities in Applications & Infrastructure
Web Conferencing Vulnerabilities
Have you ever wondered if someone can eavesdrop on your company’s meetings and learn the details of your biggest secrets? Imagine a stranger sitting just next to you in the same room, when you are discussing your “next big thing.” In this publication we describe a technique which would have allowed a threat actor to perform exactly that type of attack over the Zoom web conferencing platform.
Don’t be silly, it’s only a lightbulb
After analyzing the security of ZigBee IoT devices, specifically the smart hub that bridges between the IP and Zigbee network. By masquerading as a legitimate Zigbee lightbulb, Check Point Research was able to find and exploit vulnerabilities in the bridge that enabled them to infiltrate the IP network using a remote over-the-air ZigBee exploit.
AzureStack SSRF to Info Disclosure
Check Point Research discovered major flaws in Microsoft’s popular cloud platform that is intended to poke a hole in the (false) security concept provided by the cloud providers.
Vulnerabilities in TikTok
Our research revealed multiple vulnerabilities in TikTok. The research found that an attacker could send a spoofed SMS message to a user containing a malicious link and that Tiktok’s subdomain https://ads.tiktok.com was vulnerable to XSS attacks. These vulnerabilities could have allowed an attacker to manipulate content on a user’s account and even extract confidential personal information saved on these accounts.
WhatsApp Crash & Data Loss Bug
Check Point Research found a vulnerability in WhatsApp that could allow an attacker to deliver a malicious group chat message that would crash the app and cause data loss. To regain use of WhatsApp, users would need to uninstall and reinstall it, then delete the group which contains the message.
Vulnerabilities in Android Applications
Discovered that multiple applications on the Google Play store, including Facebook, are vulnerable to very old vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities could potentially allow an attacker to steal data related to the app and gain Android permissions which the app has access to such as a user’s location.
Ransomware Research
DeCypherIT
To evade detection, malware developers use packers to encrypt their malicious crafts before releasing them to the wild. Check Point Research discusses a case study where they were able to decrypt a specific packer that is very popular among malware developers. The developers of this packer offer it for sale on the internet, and promise it is undetectable.
Incident Response Casefile – A successful BEC leveraging lookalike domains
Cyber criminals hacked a wire transfer between a Chinese venture capital firm and an Israeli startup. After the criminals hijacked a one million dollar wire transaction, Check Point’s Incidence Response Team investigated the case.
Phorpiex botnet
The Phorpiex botnet is spread through exploit kits and with the help of other malware, has infected more than 1,000,000 Windows computers. The annual criminal revenue generated by Phorpiex botnet is approximately half a million US dollars.
In the Footsteps of a Sextortion Campaign
Check Point Research exposed a spam botnet, dubbed Phorpiex, which is responsible for a large portion of the sextortion traffic seen in the wild. We monitored the operation and recorded Bitcoin transfers to the Phorpiex campaign wallets whose current value is over $110,000.
Eye on the Nile-a cyber-operation
Check Point’s research team uncovered an operation against civil rights activists, as well as Amnesty members in Egypt. Following an initial report by Amnesty International in March, CPR uncovered the scope and means of a sophisticated attack allegedly linked to the Egyptian ministry and government site.
