[jpshare]Security Experts from Avast came through a Malware that uses a sandbox(DroidPlugin) to dynamically load and run an app, without actually installing the app, just like VirtualApp. This makes it harder for antivirus solutions for recognizing the malware, as its malicious parts are not put away in the host application. This malware is spread through […]
Noriben is a Python-based script that works in conjunction with Sysinternals Procmon to automatically collect, analyze, and report on run time indicators of malware. In a nutshell, it allows you to run your malware, hit a key press, and get a simple text report of the sample’s activities. The tool allows you to not only run […]
Noriben is a python based script that works in conjunction with Sysinternals Procmon to automatically collect, analyze, and report on runtime indicators of malware. In short, it allows you to run your malware, and get a simple text report of the malware’s activities. This tool only requires Sysinternals procmon.exe (or procmon64.exe) to operate. Noriben is an ideal solution […]
Short Bytes: Tor developers have created their own version of Sandboxed Tor Browser. At the moment, an early Alpha version of Sandboxed Tor Browser 0.0.2 is available for Linux distributions. The developers have taken this approach to minimize the attack surface during some vulnerability exploitation. The FBI is known to exploit Firefox browser vulnerabilities and […]
Developers at the Tor Project have started working on a sandboxed version of the Tor Browser, currently available as an early alpha version for Linux systems. Sandboxing is a security mechanism employed to separate running processes. In computer security, sandboxing an application means separating its process from the OS, so vulnerabilities in that app can’t […]
MorphAES is the world’s first polymorphic shellcode/malware engine, with metamorphic properties and capability to bypass sandboxes, which makes it undetectable for an IDPS, it’s cross-platform as well and library-independent. Properties: Polymorphism (AES encryption) Metamorphism (logic and constants changing) Platform independent (Linux/BSD/Windows) IDPS stealthing (the total number of possible signatures is more the number of atoms […]
Short Bytes: To make learning Apple’s programming language Swift easier, IBM has launched an online Swift Sandbox. Here, you can write and run Swift programs and execute them on top of Linux. Just a couple of days ago, Apple made its Swift programming language open source. Apple released the language last year at WWDC 14 […]
Mac malware is a thing. It’s real. Granted it hasn’t reached the critical mass of malicious code for Windows, but recent encounters with WireLurker, XcodeGhost and YiSpecter among others have elevated the conversation to levels where it’s been legitimized. Adding further credence, Google-owned online malware scanner VirusTotal this week announced the availability of sandbox execution […]
