In the recent times, most of the systems connected to Internet are getting infected with the malware and some of these systems are becoming zombies for the attacker. When user knowingly or unknowingly visits a
Further analysis is impossible at this time because the command and control servers have been shut down, most likely by the attackers in an attempt to cover their tracks, Raff said. The attackers tricked individuals in the targeted organizations into visiting the attack pages by sending them rogue...
Theprevious posttalked about using Java'sSecurityManagerto prevent attackers from gaining access to sensitive resources. This is complicated by the fact that if the wrong permissions are granted, or a type confusion attack in the JVM is used, it's possible to turn off SecurityManager by callingSy...
When flawed code is present, attackers may be able to attack a server or access data at the back end using SQL injection attacks or other exploits. Developer training and static software analysis tools can reduce the danger, but neither of these safeguards can mitigate vulnerabilities discovered ...
Every time the Wrapper runs, the stack, heap, and libraries are moved to a different address in virtual memory so that attackers can no longer learn through trials where their target is. Click here for the full article.The Java Service Wrapper makes it easy to turn almost any Java ...
Azul Vulnerability Detection is a feature of Azul Intelligence Cloud that allows users to continuously monitor their Java applications to detect known vulnerabilities in production. By leveraging Azul JVMs, it produces more accurate results with no performance penalty and eliminates false positives. ...
These days, the most talked-about story in the security world is the discovery of anew Java vulnerabilitythat could allow attackers to spread malware. A little bit of background On January 10, a researcher going by the name of @kafeine posted anarticleon his Twitter account explaining that se...
“Attackers will target commonly used open source to find vulnerabilities because they know their wide usage will leave many organizations open to attack. We’ve learned from past vulnerabilities like Log4Shell that the challenge is in rapidly finding the instances in use and quickly remediating them...
The automatic detection and fixing of the type of code issues reported in the example can be easily targeted through approaches supporting Change Variable Type refactoring. Download: Download high-res image (262KB) Download: Download full-size image Fig. 3. Usage of thread-safe collection. A ...
Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass detection. Text transformations are used in rule match statements, to transform the FieldToMatch request component before inspecting it, and they're used in rate-based rule stateme...
