Java Applet Attack on WAN with Metasploit and ZTE Router

java applet attack on internet with Metasploit

Hi everyone ..!!
You must have seen a lot of video tutorials on Metasploit usage inside LAN or Wifi networks but have you seen any video demonstrating metasploit usage over WAN (Internet) network.Well, here in this tutorial i will show you how to perform a Java Applet Attack using Metasploit over WAN network or Internet.


So to perform this attack we need the following apps and gadgets:
  • Metasploit Framework 

  • Router to forward ports 


Why do we need to forward ports??:

Well some people questions that why do we need to forward ports??Can't we attack without it ??
Well, inside LAN network you don't have to forward you port because you have specific LAN ip address and it is your only signle IP on one interface.
In case of Internet/WAN network, we have an External(Public) IP and one Internal (Private) IP.I mean, when we are behind a router we have an IP like this 192.168.1.X while when you type on google that what is my IP, google will show some other IP like 182.170.X.X.We might have a lot of users behind our router with many private IPs like 192.168.1.10,192.168.1.11 and so on..!!
So when someone will write our external IP in his browser, how our router will know that which webserver it has to run.So, to make this confusion clear, we assign a port to each private IP in our Internal network.This is is called port forwarding.Now traffic coming on that specific port will go to that specific IP for which it has been forwarded.

Gmail Goes https For Secure : Wi-Fi Protection

Google Just announced they are now moving to the Stable connection of https rather then the traditional connection of http. Gmail previously have also announced that they are making the Mails on https security but now Google is changing the whole connection to https.
Gmail Goes https For Secure : Wi-Fi Protection

The Reason are straight the Google is pretty much haded with the Chinese issues going onn. So its just the China which made this possible and special thanks to the hackers, as many of the people are now using SLL on their Gmail.

A group of 37 security and privacy specialists sent Google a letter (PDF) last June, urging the company to offer this feature. Gmail became the third-largest email provider last August, with more than 37 million unique visitors...

You can also change the Default use of https on your Gmail account by going into settings and checking Not always use https. The new turn in this story of Gay is that, Google is making this because of the Wi-Fi owners as many people are now using wifi and making a secure connection will be good.

This is pretty obvious that Google is haded with its security and is on a way to change the way it is done. Lets see if this https stops us from Hacking.

Mozilla Caught in a Bad Romance with Add-On

Ok, i know the title of this post is kinda funny but that's what this news is all about, one of the greatest internet browsers of this time Mozilla Firefox and with other products also. This have been spread in the form of Add-on’s.
 feature-logo

These aren't just add-on’s the real problem is that they are infected with Malwares and they have downloaded by many of the people worldwide.

According to the researchers “Two Firefox add-on’s available for months on Mozilla’s website infected users with malware that stole passwords and opened a backdoor on Windows machines, the open-source browser maker has confirmed.”…

According to Mozilla, version 4.0 of So think Web Video Downloader is infected with password sniffer Win32.LdPinch.gen and Master Filer is infected with the backdoor trojan Win32.Bifrose.

Which is worst for a popular web browser company as it would spread rapidly and would be more dangerous. But this is where it gets embarrassing for Mozilla – the infected add-ons have been available from the official download site for several months and, according to Mozilla, have together been downloaded around 4,600 times.

mozilla-logo
These were discovered about on the days between 25th of Jan to somewhat near and sure they have removed them and working on it to remove them fast as many of the antivirus software's have already recognized and are removing them.

That script, designated HTML.Xorer also appears to have slipped past Mozilla's anti-virus scanner. As a result, Mozilla developers announced that the add-on directory would in future be checked for malware on a daily basis.

So, What do you think ? Is it just mozilla or Google Chrome would be next ?

MacOSX Gets Massive Security Update

This is kinda weird but safe for the users at the same time Apple have just launched the update for the Mac OSX with a severe patchment of 92 vulnerabilities. Well it have also breaked the previous record of the Mac OSX update released last year, when Apple 's largest patched 67 vulnerabilities .

security_mac

The update brings Snow Leopard to version 10.6.3, making this the third major update to the OS that Apple launched in August 2009. Apple also addressed a list of nearly 30 non-security issues in the 10.6.3 update. Leopard users, meanwhile, received only the security patches ..

As a matter of fact, most of the patches were for the QuickTime player for the Leopard OS and it was expected as we have already been knowing many of the Mp4 Zero Day exploitations etc and due to the Pwn2ownage conference the exploits shown there was a big reason for this turn out.

"The sheer number, it's almost so daunting that you don't even want to look," said Andrew Storms, director of security operations at nCircle Network Security.

Today on 30th Apple came out with a update of 42 security fixes which is about the 40% of the total number of the security apple is working onn. The other thing which is kinda in favour of apple is that they don't rate/score there patches like some of the other giants like Microsoft and Oracle.


The other news we got for you is that RSnake and his friends have done some research on this and found some of the exploitations in the safari browser which is regarding the port number float/integer overflow which can cause alot of damage.

Safari-3-2-Update-Crashes-the-Browser-Annoys-the-Users
“Safari has a typical integer overflow in the way they look at ports. So if you add the number 65,536 to the port you want to connect to (in this case 25 + 65,536 = 65,561) you can bypass their port blocking.”

And the best thing to note here is that Apple beat with the blacklist of ports or even whitelist of ports as it can be used in mass exploitation for hackers. Well lets see whats next.

Charlie Miller, the researcher who cracked Snow Leopard's security defenses to take down Safari, said today that Apple had not patched the vulnerability he used last Wednesday.

"New patch doesn't fix pwn2own bug," Miller said via Twitter .
"Sorry suckers, gonna have to wait for the next patch."
