Threat Alert: Private npm Packages Disclosed via Timing Attacks

We at Aqua Nautilus have discovered that npm’s API allows threat actors to execute a timing attack that can detect whether private packages exist on the package manager. By creating a list of possible package names, threat actors can detect organizations’ scoped private packages and then masquerade public packages, tricking employees and users into downloading …

Triaging Trivy AWS Alerts with Postee and AWS Security Hub

Security operators are getting overloaded with alerts and information coming from a variety of sources. Without proper automation and triage, this information often gets lost and unactioned upon. With Postee, this can be remediated with automating commonly taken operator actions ahead of time.

Trivy: The Universal Scanner to Secure Your Cloud Migration

Application security teams are challenged today with the need for a centralized view of exposure to security issues like Log4j and Spring4Shell. But an exploding set of artifacts and security tools makes it prohibitively difficult to secure the development life cycle. A universal scanner drastically reduces this management overhead and gets you started quickly.

Threat Alert: New Malware in the Cloud By TeamTNT

Over the past week we observed three different attacks on our honeypots. The scripts and malware that were used bear a striking resemblance to none other than the threat actor TeamTNT. Eleven months ago they posted a farewell note on Twitter. Since then, we have only seen legacy attacks which automatically run on past infrastructure. …

Threat Alert: Phishing as a Service to Ramp Up Supply Chain Attacks

Threat actors are ramping up their game by deploying Phishing as a Service (PhaaS) to code and package managers (such as GitHub, PyPI, Ruby, NPM). This tactic circumvents Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) mechanisms leading to session cookie hijacks and account takeovers. As we’ve learned in recent years, account takeovers of these applications lead to supply chain …

Detecting Drovorub’s File Operations Hooking with Tracee

Two years ago, the NSA (the United States’ National Security Agency) revealed that Drovorub, an advanced Russian malware created by the GRU 85th GTsSS team, had been discovered targeting Linux systems. Drovorub works by introducing advanced techniques which can manipulate the Linux operation system. It has an advanced kernel rootkit that hooks several kernel functions. In …

New for Trivy: CSPM Identifies Misconfigurations of Your AWS Services

Every cloud provider has different resources that require detailed understanding to scan for security issues. To make this easier, cloud providers offer built-in security scanners. However, those may often lack functionality and integration into your existing stack.

CONTAINER SECURITY

Intro to Fileless Malware in Containers

A fileless attack is a technique that takes incremental steps toward gaining control of your environment while remaining undetected. In a fileless attack, the malware is directly loaded into memory and executed, evading common defenses and static scanning.

RUNTIME SECURITY

Protecting Workloads Against Real-World Attacks With Ease

Attackers are sophisticated, there is always a lag between zero days and mitigation, and production workloads are critical. So why is the adoption of runtime security for cloud native applications still lower than shift-left security practices for the same applications?
