Linux

Our experts analyzed sophisticated attacks and APT campaigns targeting Linux, and they provided some security recommendations.

At SAS 2016 our GReAT experts talk about a Java-based multi platform malware used by hundreds of cybercriminals for a handful of purposes

In this talk security podcast, Chris Brook and Brian Donohue discuss the upcoming Security Analyst Summit, Flash zero days, the Ghost vulnerability and the Anthem breach

Kaspersky Lab experts unveiled new Linux-targeting malware related to the infamous Turla APT. Such modules were known to exist before, but never met in the wild. Until now.

Linux bugs may affect or directly threaten entire virtualization infrastructures: Whatever OS is used on VMs, an attack on a hypervisor is possible from both the outside and inside, and exploitation of the dreaded Shellshock vulnerability on Linux-based hypervisors is a possibility, too.

The recent developments with “big bugs” such as Heartbleed and Shellshock created a global security strain, with many questions emerging. Both bugs were open-source software-related, but indirectly they would constitute a threat to Windows-based infrastructure. In this post we review a few scenarios of an attack on mostly Windows-based network with Linux servers at certain points.

We’ve gathered information for patching the most common Linux distros against the notorious Shellshock Bash Bug. If you see we’ve missed something, please drop us a tip!

The Bash vulnerability affecting Unix, Linux and OS X systems is the latest Internet-wide bug to emerge, and a number of experts are saying it’s more dangerous than OpenSSL Heartbleed.

A serious elevation-of-privileges vulnerability had been discovered in Linux in late April. Bugs like this are especially problematic for businesses, and require a prompt reaction.

Late on a Friday afternoon in the middle of February Apple quietly issued a fix for a critical certificate validation bug in iOS that essentially could have given an attacker
