Description: Alleged Data Breach of Universidad Pedagógica Experimental Libertador (UPEL)

Description: Impact
All objects for which an object-management configuration exists can be listed, viewed, edited, created or deleted by unauthorised users.
If object-urls are exposed via other channels, the contents of these objects can be viewed independent of object-management configurations.
Attack requirements
The following conditions have to be met in order to perform this attack:
A user must be logged in
No relevant application roles are required
At least one object-type must be configured via object-management
The scope of the attack is limited to objects that are configured via object-management.
The value of showInDataMenu is irrelevant for this attack
Patches
No patch is available yet
Workarounds
It is possible to override the endpoint security as defined in ObjectenApiHttpSecurityConfigurer and ObjectManagementHttpSecurityConfigurer. Depending on the implementation, this could result in loss of functionality.

Description: Impact
When the Contrast initializer is configured with a CONTRAST_LOG_LEVEL of info or debug, the workload secret is logged to stderr and written to Kubernetes logs.
Since info is the default setting, this affects all Contrast installations that don't customize their initializers' log level.
The following audiences are intended to have access to workload secrets (see https://docs.edgeless.systems/contrast/1.7/architecture/secrets#workload-secrets):
Contrast Coordinator (can derive all workload secrets)
Contrast Initializer (obtains only the secret configured in the manifest)
Seedshare owner (can derive all workload secrets)
Workload owner (can update manifests to obtain secrets)
This vulnerability allows the following parties unintended access to workload secrets issued by a Coordinator:
Kubernetes users with get or list permission on pods/logs.
Others with read access to the Kubernetes log storage (most notably, the cloud provider).
This vulnerability does not affect scenarios where workload secrets are not used by the application (directly or with secure persistence). Applications designed for workload owner exclusion can't use workload secrets and are thus unaffected.
Patches
N/A
Workarounds
This vulnerability can be mitigated by adding an environment variable CONTRAST_LOG_LEVEL=warn to the initializer after running contrast generate, and then running contrast generate again.

Description: Written by: Patrick Whitsell
Google Threat Intelligence Group’s (GTIG) mission is to protect Google’s billions of users and Google’s multitude of products and services. In late October 2024, GTIG discovered an exploited government website hosting malware being used to target multiple other government entities. The exploited site delivered a malware payload, which we have dubbed “TOUGHPROGRESS”, that took advantage of Google Calendar for command and control (C2). Misuse of cloud services for C2 is a technique that many threat actors leverage in order to blend in with legitimate activity.
We assess with high confidence that this malware is being used by the PRC based actor APT41 (also tracked as HOODOO). APT41’s targets span the globe, including governments and organizations within the global shipping and logistics, media and entertainment, technology, and automotive sectors.
Overview
In this blog post we analyze the malware delivery methods, technical details of the malware attack chain, discuss other recent APT41 activities, and share indicators of compromise (IOCs) to help security practitioners defend against similar attacks. We also detail how GTIG disrupted this campaign using custom detection signatures, shutting down attacker-controlled infrastructure, and protections added to Safe Browsing.
