This time it&#8217;s Android mobes that can have their DRAM contents slurped.<\/p>\n<p>Researchers in Amsterdam, France, Santa Barbara, and India teamed up to explain in <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/vvdveen.com\/publications\/dimva2018.pdf\">a paper<\/a> [PDF] how memory contents could be brute-forced, and also how they could be thwarted by strictly limiting memory access.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We propose a practical, isolation-based protection that stops DMA-based Rowhammer attacks by carefully surrounding DMA buffers with DRAM-level guard rows,&#8221; the researchers say.<\/p>\n<p>If it means an end to having to write any more Rowhammer stories, we&#8217;re all for it.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"crosshead\"><span>Spectre patches may need a patch<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When is a fix not a fix? When it&#8217;s an attempt patch up the Spectre vulnerability, apparently.<\/p>\n<p>Researchers Noam Hadad and Jonathan Afek of Aleph Security <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/alephsecurity.com\/2018\/06\/26\/spectre-browser-query-cache\/\">said<\/a> this week that they had devised a way to work around some of the measures browser vendors have used to mitigate the vulnerability.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out the data-timing tricks browsers use to help prevent exploits can be overcome, provided the attackers don&#8217;t mind a little performance hit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In our research we were able to overcome the cache access timing specific mitigations. Although these mitigations cause a serious slowdown in our POC, they are not effective in preventing this attack,&#8221; the duo write.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These mitigations also have some negative performance implications and are hurting the functionality of some legitimate JavaScript web application use-cases.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"crosshead\"><span>NSA admits massive call slurp<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>So, the bad news is that Uncle Sam has been hoarding your phone records. The worse news is that those government agencies are now racing to delete the evidence.<\/p>\n<p>This according to the Daily Beast, <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thedailybeast.com\/nsa-admits-it-improperly-collected-a-huge-amount-of-americans-call-records\">who says<\/a> the NSA is now wholesale deleting records of people&#8217;s phone calls and text message that it had illegally harvested. According to the report, the government security bod is blaming &#8220;technical irregularities&#8221; for the unauthorized data collection.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, the government cock-up meant hundreds of millions of phone records made their way into NSA hands without any review or authorization<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Despite the sweeping remedy for the overcollection, the NSA did not estimate how many records it had purged, let alone how many Americans were affected,&#8221; the not at all concerning Daily Beast Report https:\/\/www.thedailybeast.com\/nsa-admits-it-improperly-collected-a-huge-amount-of-americans-call-records reads.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The scale is certain to be massive.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"crosshead\"><span>Interactive World Cup match ball not much of a hack risk<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>An IoT football for knockout games in the World Cup is just a marketing gimmick rather than a potential target for mischievous hackers, according to an expert<\/p>\n<p>Adidas has taken the wraps off a IoT-enabled or interactive ball, the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dezeen.com\/2018\/06\/28\/adidas-reveals-interactive-match-ball-knockout-stage-world-cup-2018\/\">Telstar Mechta<\/a>, that it said would be used in the knock-out stages of the World Cup, days ahead of keenly-awaited sudden death games that begin on Saturday. Smart things are often hackable, mostly because they are made without any consideration of information security basics.<\/p>\n<p>But a 1966-style Russian linesman* is it\/isn&#8217;t it over the line hack scenario has ruled out by experts. PTP\u2019s Ken Munro, an expert in IoT security who has hacked everything from a smart kettle to an electric car, pointed out the ball only had a near-field communication (NFC) chip and therefore was out of range of internet hackers.<\/p>\n<p>The utility of an NFC-enabled football, in general, remains unclear. Munro <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheKenMunroShow\/status\/1012649110883721216\">dismissed<\/a> the concept as a \u201cmarketing gimmick\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"crosshead\"><span>Russian cybercrime bust<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A pair of Russian suspected of looting the accounts of loyalty program members from popular online stores, payment systems and bookmakers have been arrested by Russian police.<\/p>\n<p>The targets of the attack were websites of dozens of companies, including PayPal, Ulmart, Biglion, KupiKupon and Groupon. In total, about 700,000 accounts were compromised, 2,000 of which the hackers put up for sale for $5 each, or 20-30 per cent of the nominal balance of the accounts. The duo had a sideline in changing the phone numbers and emails on the compromised online accounts they resold, for a 10 per cent fee.<\/p>\n<p>Upon arrest, the pair admitted on the spot that they had earned at least 500,000 rubles (US$7,961). However, the real amount of damage remains to be determined.<\/p>\n<p>Investigation into the case began in November 2015, after a large-scale cyberattack was made on the website of a large online store, targeting the personal accounts of the store\u2019s loyalty program members. In a month, about 120,000 accounts were compromised through a credential stuffing attack that relied on password reuse.<\/p>\n<p>Administration &#8220;K&#8221; of the MIA of Russia, with the assistance of Moscow-based infosec firm Group-IB, led the investigation, which led to a pair of arrests. The leader of the group was identified as a resident of Ryazan Region, born in 1998. His partner, who provided technical support for their joint online store, resided in Astrakhan Region and was born in 1997.<\/p>\n<p>Both suspects have confessed. Neither has been named. Their arrests took place last month but news of the case was only released this week. \u00ae<\/p>\n<p class=\"wptl btm\"><span>Sponsored:<\/span> <a
