Secret-Spilling Sources at Risk Following Cryptome Breach

Ruxpin-Vanity-Page-660x244

Secret-spilling site Cryptome was hacked over the weekend, possibly exposing the identities of whistleblowers and other confidential sources, according to a hacker who contacted Wired.com and claimed responsibility for the breach.

The hacker said two intruders from the group Kryogeniks breached the long-running site, where they gained access to a repository of secret files and correspondence. Among them, the hacker claimed, were the records of self-proclaimed WikiLeaks insiders who have been the source of several unconfirmed tips supposedly detailing internal WikiLeaks matters.

ACK Tunneling Trojans

– Arne Vidstrom, arne.vidstrom@ntsecurity.nu
Summary

Trojans normally use ordinary TCP or UDP communication between their client and server parts. Any firewall between the attacker and the victim that blocks incoming traffic will usually stop all trojans from working. ICMP tunneling has existed for quite some time now, but if you block ICMP in the firewall you’ll be safe from that. This paper describes another concept, that I call ACK Tunneling. ACK Tunneling works through firewalls that don’t apply their rule sets on TCP ACK segments (ordinary packet filters belong to this class of firewalls).
