Finding A Company's BreakPoint
The goal of this talk is to help educate those who are new or learning penetration testing and hacking techniques. We tend to see the same mindset applied when we speak to those new to pentesting “Scan something with Nessus to find the vulnerability, and then exploit it…Right?”. This is very far from reality when we talk about pentesting or even real world attacks. In this talk we will cover five (5) techniques that we find to be highly effective at establishing an initial foothold into the target network including: phishing, multicast protocol poisoning, SMBrelay attacks, account compromise and web application vulnerabilities.

[CB16] Invoke-Obfuscation: PowerShell obFUsk8tion Techniques & How To (Try To...CODE BLUE
The very best attackers often use PowerShell to hide their scripts from A/V and application whitelisting technologies using encoded commands and memory-only payloads to evade detection. These techniques thwart Blue Teams from determining what was executed on a target system. However, defenders are catching on, and state-of-the-art detection tools now monitor the command line arguments for powershell.exe either in real-time or from event logs.
We need new avenues to remain stealthy in a target environment. So, this talk will highlight a dozen never-before-seen techniques for obfuscating PowerShell command line arguments. As an incident responder at Mandiant, I have seen attackers use a handful of these methods to evade basic command line detection mechanisms. I will share these techniques already being used in the wild so you can understand the value each technique provides the attacker.
Updated PowerShell event logging mitigates many of the detection challenges that obfuscation introduces. However, many organizations do not enable this PowerShell logging. Therefore, I will provide techniques that the Blue Team can use to detect the presence of these obfuscation methods in command line arguments. I will conclude this talk by highlighting the public release of Invoke-Obfuscation. This tool applies the aforementioned obfuscation techniques to user-provided commands and scripts to evade command line argument detection mechanisms.

Attackers don’t just search for technology vulnerabilities, they take the easiest path and find the human vulnerabilities. Drive by web attacks, targeted spear phishing, and more are commonplace today with the goal of delivering custom malware. In a world where delivering custom advanced malware that handily evades signature and blacklisting approaches, and does not depend on application software vulnerabilities, how do we understand when are environments are compromised? What are the telltale signs that compromise activity has started, and how can we move to arrest a compromise in progress before the attacker laterally moves and reinforces their position? The penetration testing community knows these signs and artifacts of advanced malware presence, and it is up to us to help educate defenders on what to look for.
In this talk I will present a brief introduction to Code Review, where we will try to understand its value and why it is so hard to implement effectively. I will also present some of the challenges we had at SAPO and how we tried to fix them.
Over the last few years threat hunting has risen from being a grassroots hands-on defensive technique to all-out hype as security vendors have jumped on the bandwagon. In this talk I wanted to strip away the marketing and talk about real-life threat hunting at scale and how it differs from traditional security monitoring. I'll cover the key datasets, different analytical approaches, cutting-edge TTPs and the people/skills needed to make it happen. I'll also share some real-world compromises that would have been missed by traditional detection but were found through hands-on threat hunting.

A Brief Study on Different Intrusions and Machine Learning-based Anomaly Dete...Eswar Publications
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) consist of a number of resource constrained sensors to collect and monitor data from unattended environments. Hence, security is a crucial task as the nodes are not provided with tamper-resistance hardware. Provision for secured communication in WSN is a challenging task especially due to the environment in which they are deployed. One of the main challenges is detection of intrusions. Intrusion detection system gathers and analyzes information from various areas within a computer or a network to identify possible security breaches. Different intrusion detection methods have been proposed in the literature to identify attacks in the network. Out of these detection methods, machine-learning based methods are observed to be efficient in terms of detection accuracy and alert generations for the system to act immediately. A brief study on different intrusions along with the machine learning based anomaly detection methods are reviewed in this work. The study also classifies the machine learning algorithms into supervised, unsupervised and semi-supervised learning–based anomaly detection. The performances
of the algorithms are compared and efficient methods are identified.

Keynote presented at European Testing Conference (9th February 2017)
What happens when things break? What happens when software fails? We regard it as a normal and personal inconvenience when apps crash or servers become unavailable, but what are the implications beyond the individual user? Is software reliability simply a business decision or does it have economic, social and cultural consequences? What are the moral and practical implications for software developers? And when we talk of ‘systems’, are we part of the ‘system’? What about the bugs on our side of the keyboard? In this talk we will explore examples of failures in software and its application, and how they affect us at different scales, from user to society.

Beyond the Pentest: How C2, Internal Pivoting, and Data Exfiltration Show Tru...Beau Bullock
Your vulnerability scanner reports that there are no issues on your network. A pentester has spent the last week trying to exploit every system your organization owns with no luck. The check box for this year's compliance audit has been checked. While it is good that these things occurred, they do not complete the picture in regards to true risk.
Real attackers do not solely rely on software exploits to compromise an environment. In almost every breach you hear about the root of the compromise came from a phishing attack. This is why additional tests, post-infection, should be performed to assess just how far an attacker can go after gaining a foothold into your environment.
What command and control channels are available for an attacker to utilize to communicate with your internal systems? How easy is it for an attacker to move laterally within your environment and gain access to other systems? What are your detection capabilities when it comes to sensitive data being exfiltrated out of your environment? How do you test these attacker techniques using open-source tools?
This lecture will address these questions and more, including a showcase of attacker methodologies.

Watchtowers of the Internet: Analysis of Outbound Malware Communication, Stephan Chenette, Principal Security Researcher, (@StephanChenette) & Armin Buescher, Security Researcher
With advanced malware, targeted attacks, and advanced persistent threats, it’s not IF but WHEN a persistant attacker will penetrate your network and install malware on your company’s network and desktop computers. To get the full picture of the threat landscape created by malware, our malware sandbox lab runs over 30,000 malware samples a day. Network traffic is subsequently analyzed using heuristics and machine learning techniques to statistically score any outbound communication and identify command & control, back-channel, worm-like and other types of traffic used by malware.
Our talk will focus on the setup of the lab, major malware families as well as outlier malware, and the statistics we have generated to give our audience an exposure like never before into the details of malicious outbound communication. We will provide several tips, based on our analysis to help you create a safer and more secure network.
Stephan Chenette is a principal security researcher at Websense Security Labs, specializing in research tools and next generation emerging threats. In this role, he identifies and implements exploit and malcode detection techniques.
Armin Buescher is a Security Researcher and Software Engineer experienced in strategic development of detection/prevention technologies and analysis tools. Graduated as Dipl.-Inf. (MSc) with thesis on Client Honeypot systems. Interested in academic research work and published author of security research papers.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

13. 1. Phishing: Phishing Domains
The scenario will determine what domains we leverage
If our goal is to perform a more targeted attack we will attempt use a
similar domain to the target organization and clone login portals:
breakpoint-labs.com vs. breakpoint-lab.com
If our goal is more common threat we will emulate those TTPs:
ups-pkgtracker.com
Its important to submit domains to web content filters/proxies
15. 1. Phishing: Finding Vulnerabilities
Outlook client – Email below is sent from a Gmail account:
16. 1. Phishing: Execute Code
Click Analysis: We generally use Python to send email + create a unique
link per email to targets
Credential Grabbing: We generally use PHP to prompt for credentials
Execute Code: Usually leverage Empire (Office Macro, HTA method)
17. Is your input being presented on the screen? -> XSS
Is your input calling on stored data? -> SQLi
Does input generate an action to an external service? -> SSRF
Does your input call on a local or remote file? -> File Inclusion
Does your input end up on the file system? -> File Upload
Does your input cause another page to load? -> Redirect Vulns
Can we enumerate technology and versions? -> Lots of Vulns
2. Web Application Vulnerabilities
18. 2. Web App Vulns: File Inclusion
File Inclusion vulns can lead to code execution “php include()”
Sometimes they are limited to just file inclusion “php echo()”
LFIs normally require you to get your input on disk then include
the affected resource (log poisoning)
RFIs are normally easier to exploit as you can point them to an
external resource containing your code
19. 2. Web App Vulns: Step 1
Unlinked resource “debug.php”- HTTP 200 OK and blank screen
20. 2. Web App Vulns: Step 2
Unlinked resource “debug.php”- HTTP 200 OK and blank screen
21. 2. Web App Vulns: Step 2
Never underestimate the power of a good lunch!
22. 2. Web App Vulns: Step 3
Parameters are fuzzed to enumerate inputs. "page=test" gives back a different
response "Failed opening 'test' for inclusion”
23. 2. Web App Vulns: Step 4
Attempt to execute code: 1.php = <?php system(‘id’);?>
24. 2. Web App Vulns: Step 5
IN REAL LIFE: The web service was running as SYSTEM!
25. 3. Multicast Name Resolution Poisoning
A majority of the time internal networks will have name resolution traffic
enabled with the following protocols:
Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR)
Netbios Name (NBT-NS) services.
Multicast DNS (mDNS)
By listening, intercepting and manipulating name resolution traffic an
attacker can redirect authentication traffic and perform Man in the Middle
(MITM) attacks.
27. 3. Enter Responder.py
Responder is a Python script that aids in:
Multicast Protocol Poisoning (LLMNR, NBT-NS, mDNS)
WPAD Spoofing (Web Proxy Auto Discovery) using a non authorized server as a
proxy server for all HTTP requests to the Internet.
MITM Attacks (Intercepting credential exchanges between hosts leading to
password cracking, pass the hash, SMB relay attacks, etc.)
Rouge Server Services (SMTP, IMAP, POP3, SMB, Kerberos, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS,
DNS, LDAP, SQL, etc.)
28. 3. Responder.py - Use Case 1 Rouge Services
Syntax: ~$ responder -I eth0 -f
30. 3. Responder.py - Use Case 3 Analyze
Syntax: ~$ responder -I eth0 -A
31. 3. Prevent Multicast Name Communication Attacks
Preventing multicast communication attacks through:
Disable Broadcast Protocols: LLMNR (Link Local Multicast Name Resolution) and
NBNS (NetBios Name Resolution)
Prevent WPAD Poisoning w/ WPAD file entries in DNS
Segment the local networks with VLANS to prevent impact
Ensure that only NTLMv2 is in use rather than LM and NTLM
32. 4. SMB Relay Attacks
SMB relay attacks occur once an attacker inserts themselves in
between the NTLM Challenge/Response protocol exchange.
The attacker needs the victim to initiate an HTTP or SMB connection.
This initiation can occur often from either:
LLMNR/NBNS spoofing
Automated processes attempting to authenticate to systems
(ex. patch management, antivirus updates, vulnerability scanners,
custom admin scripts, etc.)
41. 5. Account Compromise
Combines several vulnerabilities to demonstrate risk:
- Username enumeration (Low) +
- Lack of Automation Controls (Low) +
- Lack of Password Complexity Reqs (Low) =
- Account Compromise (Critical)
42. 5. Acct Comp: Username
Enumeration
Password Reset Feature “Email address not found”
Login Error Message “Invalid Username”’
Contact Us Features “Which Admin do you want to contact?”
Timing for login Attempts: Valid = 0.4 secs Invalid = 15 secs
User Registration “Username already exists”
Various error messages, and HTML source
Google Hacking and OSINT
Sometimes the application tells you
43. 5. Acct Comp: Automation Controls
Pull the auth request up in Burp’s Repeater and try it a few times
No sign of automation controls? -> Burp Intruder
- No account lockout
- Non-existent or Weak CAPTCHA
- Main login is strong, but others? (Mobile Interface, API, etc.)
44. 5. Acct Comp: Weak Passwords
We as humans are bad at passwords…here are some tricks:
- Password the same as username
- Variations of “password”: “p@ssw0rd”…
- Month+Year, Season+Year: winter2015…
- Company Name + year
- Keyboard Walks – PW Generator: “!QAZ2wsx”
Lots of wordlists out there, consider making a targeted wordlist
Research the targeted user’s interests and build lists around those
interests
45. 5. Acct Comp: Default and Shared
Attempt to brute force across all the things
Brute Force Tools: Burp Suite’s Intruder, Hydra, CrackMapExec, MSF SMB
modules, Nmap, etc.
Always try default creds for any given technology
We commonly see shared Linux root creds, and shared Windows local admin
creds across the entire enterprise
46. Final Thoughts and Tips
Use Shodan and Censys.io for external reconnaissance
Make sure you investigate shares (enum4linux)
Unlinked Content enumeration on web applications is key
Passwords written down on sticky notes? Yea usually
Can you reset a PW via the Help Desk?
Put a focus on feature abuse: What does the technology let you do? How can
you abuse that functionality?
Once you get valid credentials try them across all the things
