OWASP's example implementation of check_private_ip() is quite naive. It can be bypassed with 0x7f.0.0.1 #SSRF cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/c…

#Log4J Worm is ITW @vxunderground has a sample of the self propagating worm using log4j as a vector. It installs a Mirai bot which makes sense to targeting embedded Linux devices Looks like it uses user-agent for exploitation and modifies the binary before sending (?)

log4shell: Datadog agent is Go but uses Java jmxfetch to retrieve JVM info. Source code: github.com/DataDog/jmxfetch/… jmxfetch likes to log! but at least it looks difficult for attackers to control the input if they are not already in a privileged position.
Datadog <7.32.2 agent is vulnerable to log4shell, update. @datadoghq

If you identify a vendor vulnerable to log4Shell and they are not on this list; make a pull request. You'll save some tears from blue teams and IT all over the world: gist.github.com/SwitHak/b66d… Not all heroes wear capes...

#log4j Update: IF YOU WERE DEPENDING ON JAVA VERSIONS TO PROTECT YOU FROM RCE INSTEAD OF DIRECTLY PATCHING LOG4J THAT IS NO LONGER A VIABLE MITIGATION STRATEGY *ALL* VERSIONS OF JAVA CAN NOW TRIGGER FULL RCE DUE TO A BYPASS PATCH LOG4J ASAP xitter.cf/wdormann/status/147040…

Did you know that a normal LED can also receive light? 🚨 It can! In this paper, we point a laser at build-in LEDs of offices devices and transmit data to their firmware. This covert communication can bridge 25m with a throughput of 128 kbps. intellisec.de/pubs/2021-acsa… 1/3
