Gas Pump Skimmer Sends Card Data Via Text

  • Skimming devices that crooks install inside fuel station gas pumps frequently rely on an embedded Bluetooth component allowing thieves to collect stolen credit card data from the pumps wirelessly with any mobile device. The downside of this approach is that Bluetooth-based skimmers can be detected by anyone else with a mobile device. Now, investigators in the New York say they are starting to see pump skimmers that use cannibalized cell phone components to send stolen card data via text message.

  • Skimmers that transmit stolen card data wirelessly via GSM text messages and other mobile-based communications methods are not new; they have been present — if not prevalent — in ATM skimming devices for ages.

  • But this is the first instance KrebsOnSecurity is aware of in which such SMS skimmers have been found inside gas pumps, and that matches the experience of several states hardest hit by pump skimming activity.

Apple’s New File System: Who Cares?

ZFS, jails, FreeBSD

  • FreeBSD Jails

  • Origins of FreeBSD Jail and why imperfect virtualization is good

  • Jails are like little virtual machines (jails) running on a bigger machine (the jail host)

  • From the jail host (often just referred to as the host), you can see into the jails, see everything that’s running, monitor, etc.

  • Stuff in the jail cannot see outside the jail and have no interactions with the host

  • You can configure the host so that the jail can access stuff on the host (e.g. a tape drive) but that requires explicit action by the sysadmin.

  • Simplified concept of a FreeBSD Jail: create a directory, install FreeBSD in there, chroot, done.

Show Notes:

Researchers demonstrate how PINs and other info can be gathered through phone movement

  • Team was able to crack four digit-PINs with 70 percent accuracy on the first try, with 100 percent accuracy by try number five

  • A site accessed with malicious code can open the device to such sensor-based monitoring working in the background when browser tabs are left open.

  • The team suggests a number of ways to help combat vulnerabilities, including regularly changing PINs and quitting out of any apps not currently in use

  • Dan suggests: Simple way around this: randomize the display of numbers on the keypad. I think this should be standard for all PIN entry. I recall seeing this somewhere, years ago, but I don’t recall where. I’ve always wondered why I’ve never seen it again. If the numbers have a narrow field of vision, nobody can watch over your shoulder.

  • A better article on the issue

  • The PDF of the study

  • From the PDF: . In the latest Apple Security Updates for iOS 9.3 (released in March 2016), Safari took a similar countermeasure by “suspending the availability of this [motion and orientation] data when the web view is hidden”x

Computer security is broken from top to bottom

  • Robert Watson spoke at the very first BSDCan

  • There are three main fundamental causes of insecurity: technology complexity, culture, an the economic incentives of the computer business.

Deep Dive starts with Dan’s first blog post about PostgreSQL

  • PostgreSQL

  • PostgreSQL < 9.6 has DATADIR is the same for all versions

  • PostgreSQL 9.6+ on FreeBSD, each major version has it’s own DATADIR

  • Installing in a FreeBSD jail means you can easily upgrading another jail, then start using it

Alleged vDOS Owners Poised to Stand Trial

  • Police in Israel are recommending that the state attorney’s office indict and prosecute two 18-year-olds suspected of operating vDOS, until recently the most popular attack service for knocking Web sites offline.

  • On Sept. 8, 2016, KrebsOnSecurity published a story about the hacking of vDOS, a service that attracted tens of thousands of paying customers and facilitated countless distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks over the four year period it was in business. That story named two young Israelis — Yarden Bidani and Itay Huri — as the likely owners and operators of vDOS, and within hours of its publication the two were arrested by Israeli police, placed on house arrest for 10 days, and forbidden from using the Internet for a month.

  • According to a story published Sunday by Israeli news outlet TheMarker.com, the government of Sweden also is urging Israeli prosecutors to pursue formal charges.

  • Law enforcement officials both in the United States and abroad say stresser services enable illegal activity, and they’ve recently begun arresting both owners and users of these services.

ZFS is what you want, even though you may not know – Dan talks about why he likes ZFS

  • The following is an ugly generalization and must not be read in isolation
  • Listen to the podcast for the following to make sense
  • Makes sysadmin life easier
  • treats the disks as a bucket source for filesystem
  • different file system attributes for different purposes, all on the same set of disks
  • Interesting things you didn’t know you could do with ZFS

House Passes Long-Sought Email Privacy Bill

Here’s What Transport for London Learned From Tracking Your Phone On the Tube

  • Advertising? I can see how this is useful for more than just advertising. Traffic flow. Knowing about time from A to B. Mention EZPass and monitoring of badges to determine flow.

  • Signs announced trial, opt out by disabling wifi.

  • The documents also seem to suggest that if TfL switched on tracking full time it could offer real time crowding information to passengers – so we could see a CityMapper of the not-too-distant future telling us which stations to avoid.

  • That sounds simlar to how Waze and Google Maps collect real-time data on traffic congestion.

  • Collecting information is one thing. Controlling access to that information is vital. As we’ve seen so many times in the past, it is the use of that data for unintended purposes which is of most concern.

  • Rainbow tables

GitLab Postmortem of database outage of January 31

  • This came from Shawn. We covered this incident in eposide 305.

  • I want to make it clear from the start, we are not mocking GitLab. There is no joy to be taken here.

  • On January 31st 2017, we experienced a major service outage for one of our products, the online service GitLab.com. The outage was caused by an accidental removal of data from our primary database server.

  • What a horrible feeling that engineer then had. Imagine, for a moment. Production has just been wiped out… OMG.

  • Backups could not be found, nor could they be used. It was all gone.

  • I can imagine lots and lots of waiting for stuff to finish. Very stressful. Much hope, but very stressful.

  • Wow, could not access their own projects. Ouch. Almost want their own repo offline, but then accusations of not dog fooding, etc.

  • Prometheus monitorin

  • Some places take the approach of making staging the hot backup for production. Exactly the same. Move production onto staging hardware if required.

  • “I don’t remember where I saw it (probably hackernews), but someone proposed to constantly recreate staging from production’s backup. This way we would have an up-to-date staging version and frequently tested backup recovery process.”

SourceForge Downtime

  • SourceForge suffered a large data corruption problem and was down for a number of days, slowly restoring services as they could
  • “The Slashdot Media sites experienced an outage commencing last Thursday. We responded immediately and confirmed the issue was related to filesystem corruption on our storage platform. This incident impacted all block devices on our Ceph cluster. We consulted with our storage vendor when forming our next steps”
  • As part of this, we learned a bit about the backends of sourceforge and slashdot
  • Server platform is CentOS Linux.
  • We use an Open Source virtualization platform and have in recent years achieved a 75%+ reduction in physical server count through widespread virtualization.
  • We use an Open Source storage platform, Ceph, with spinning disks and SSD.
  • The storage backing our services is a mix of ext4, XFS and NFS.
  • Our backup solution is Open Source, backing on to popular cloud storage platforms.
  • Our sites use Open Source database platforms including MongoDB and flavors of MySQL and PostgreSQL.
  • We leverage scalable data solutions including Hadoop and ElasticSearch.
  • Slashdot is backed by Perl. SourceForge is backed by Python. Both language stacks are entirely Open Source.
  • And the SourceForge developer services are backed by the Apache Allura code base, which we Open Sourced and delivered to the Apache incubation process.
  • “We’re prioritizing the project web service (used by many projects using custom vhosts), mailing lists, and the ability to upload data to our download service. Downloads (40+ TB of data)”
  • Most Recent Update – Sourceforge Blog
  • A Post mortem is expected once everything is restored

Black Vine Group behind Anthem breach

  • In a report last week Symantec said it was Black Vine that broke into the health insurer “Anthem” system’s and stole more than 80 million patients records.
  • The group has the resources to customize malware, and uses zero-day vulnerabilities in Microsoft Internet Explorer to launch watering-hole attacks.
  • Black Vine’s malware Mivast, was used in the Anthem breach, according to Symantec.
  • Anthem said the hack likely began in May 2014, but that it didn’t realize its systems had been compromised until January. The company, which is one of the largest health insurance providers in the U.S., disclosed the breach in February. Hackers made off with personal data including names, birth dates, member ID numbers and Social Security numbers.
  • Like other Black Vine attacks, The Mivast malware was signed with a fake digital certificate. (more on that below)
  • Since 2012 Black Vine has gone after other businesses that deal with sensitive and critical data, including organizations in the aerospace, technology and finance industries, according to Symantec. The majority of the attacks (82 percent) were waged against U.S. businesses.
  • During its research, Symantec discovered Black Vine began using exploits around the same time as other hacking groups. Each group delivered different malware and went after certain organizations,
  • The fact that they used the same exploits as other groups suggests the attackers relied on the same distribution network.
  • One of the group’s first attacks came in December 2012 against gas turbine manufacturer Capstone Turbine, Symantec said.
  • That hack used the IE exploit CVE-2012-4792 and delivered the Sakurel malware.
  • Symantec noted that the malware was signed with a digital certificate attributed to a company called Micro Digital, fooling Windows into believing the program was legitimate.
  • In 2013 and 2014, Black Vine targeted companies in the aviation and aerospace industries. One third-party blog cited by Symantec noted that in 2013 specific employees at a global airline were sent spear phishing emails containing a URL that instructed them to download Hurix.
  • Symantec claimed some Black Vine members have ties to Topsec, a Chinese IT security company, and the group has access to the Edlerwood framework

pfSense 2.1.4 released

  • The pfSense team has released 2.1.4, shortly after 2.1.3 – it’s mainly a security release
  • Included within are eight security fixes, most of which are pfSense-specific
  • OpenSSL, the WebUI and some packages all need to be patched (and there are instructions on how to do so)
  • It also includes a large number of various other bug fixes
  • Update all your routers!

DragonflyBSD’s pf gets SMP

  • While we’re on the topic of pf…
  • Dragonfly patches their old[er than even FreeBSD’s] pf to support multithreading in many areas
  • Stemming from a user’s complaint, Matthew Dillon did his own work on pf to make it SMP-aware
  • Altering your configuration‘s ruleset can also help speed things up, he found
  • When will OpenBSD, the source of pf, finally do the same?

ChaCha usage and deployment

  • A while back, we talked to djm about some cryptography changes in OpenBSD 5.5 and OpenSSH 6.5
  • This article is sort of an interesting follow-up to that, showing which projects have adopted ChaCha20
  • OpenSSH offers it as a stream cipher now, OpenBSD uses it for it’s random number generator, Google offers it in TLS for Chromium and some of their services and lots of other projects seem to be adopting it
  • Both Google’s fork of OpenSSL and LibReSSL have upcoming implementations, while vanilla OpenSSL does not
  • Unfortunately, this article has one mistake: FreeBSD does not use it – they still use the broken RC4 algorithm

BSDMag June 2014 issue

  • The monthly online BSD magazine releases their newest issue
  • This one includes the following articles: TLS hardening, setting up a package cluster in MidnightBSD, more GIMP tutorials, “saving time and headaches using the robot framework for testing,” an interview and an article about the increasing number of security vulnerabilities
  • The free pdf file is available for download as always

Interview – Craig Rodrigues – rodrigc@freebsd.org

News Roundup

Preauthenticated decryption considered harmful

  • Responding to a post from Adam Langley, Ted Unangst talks a little more about how signify and pkg_add handle signatures
  • In the past, the OpenBSD installer would pipe the output of ftp straight to tar, but then verify the SHA256 at the end – this had the advantage of not requiring any extra disk space, but raised some security concerns
  • With signify, now everything is fully downloaded and verified before tar is even invoked
  • The pkg_add utility works a little bit differently, but it’s also been improved in this area – details in the post
  • Be sure to also read the original post from Adam, lots of good information

FreeBSD 9.3-RC2 is out

  • As the -RELEASE inches closer, release candidate 2 is out and ready for testing
  • Since the last one, it’s got some fixes for NIC drivers, the latest file and libmagic security fixes, some serial port workarounds and various other small things
  • The updated bsdconfig will use pkgng style packages now too
  • A lesser known fact: there are also premade virtual machine images you can use too

pkgsrcCon 2014 wrap-up

  • In what may be the first real pkgsrcCon article we’ve ever had!
  • Includes wrap-up discussion about the event, the talks, the speakers themselves, what they use pkgsrc for, the hackathon and basically the whole event
  • Unfortunately no recordings to be found…

PostgreSQL FreeBSD performance and scalability

  • FreeBSD developer kib@ writes a report on PostgreSQL on FreeBSD, and how it scales
  • On his monster 40-core box with 1TB of RAM, he runs lots of benchmarks and posts the findings
  • Lots of technical details if you’re interested in getting the best performance out of your hardware
  • It also includes specific kernel options he used and the rest of the configuration
  • If you don’t want to open the pdf file, you can use this link too

Feedback/Questions


  • All the tutorials are posted in their entirety at bsdnow.tv
  • There, you’ll also find a link to Bob Beck’s LibReSSL talk from the end of May – we finally found a recording!
  • Send questions, comments, show ideas/topics, or stories you want mentioned on the show to feedback@bsdnow.tv
  • If you want to come on for an interview or have a tutorial you’d like to see, let us know
  • Watch live Wednesdays at 2:00PM Eastern (18:00 UTC)
