Gordon stated that the latest version of OfficeScan does not use port 12345 for its communications processes. According to Gordon, the decision to change the port resulted from customer concerns about hacking attempts.
heh. yeah thats a fine question.
but seriously, reading about what people used netbus to do to Magnuss Eriksson is so sad.
having fun is one thing, but it seems that people far too often push the envelope too far.
just because you can do something doesnt mean that you should do it.
Description Yaga is a User-to-Root attack. It adds the attacker to the Domain Admins group by hacking the registry. The attacker edits the victim's registry so that the next time a system service crashes on the victim, the attacker is added to the Domain Admins group. To setup the attack, the attacker must put onto the victim machine a file with the registry edit information. The attacker must also edit the registry. All this can be done via a telnet session. Once the setup is complete, the attacker can remotely crash a service on the victim machine (using CrashIIS for example) to add the user to the Domain Admins group.
Simulation details Use Sendmail.pl to send the email to Hume. On a Unix attacker: "/.sim/bin/sendmail.pl netbus.txt " or send the email with attachment from an NT attacker. Later, on a NT attacker, run the NetBus client with the victim IP address (172.16.112.100).
Attack signature When the attacker uses the netbus client to access the victim, it creates network traffic that is easy to identify. The word Netbus will show up in the sniffed data and all of the commands are in plaintext.
Explore.exe is the most commonly used filename for the Netbus attack. The NT security log will show that explore.exe ran when the attachment was executed. When the Netbus server is running, it shows up in the victim process table as explore.exe.

3. Beast
Beast is a Windows-based backdoor trojan horse, more commonly known in the underground hacking community as a Remote Administration Tool or RAT. It is capable of infecting versions of Windows from 95 to 8.1.
Beyond malicious hacking and mischievous pranks, the only conceivable use for a Trojan like this is to enable employers to monitor their employees' use of company machines. This surveillance could easily extend to laptops, which can be monitored whenever the user connects to the Internet or a company intranet.
Great to see your determination! I think a lot of people would love to see the P1/P2 interface hacked. I do not have the skills to do that myself, but at least I will try to contribute with what I have found out about P1/P2 hacking so far.
Young Slovenian hackers start breaking into systems abroad. In Maribor a group forms which starts meeting in a popular cybercafé; they are employed part-time as system administrators in local companies, where they also cannot resist hacking. As a result, company owners and cybercafé managers have had quite a few problems for several years.
Has anybody found that brute force hacking is highly ineffective?
The best way is to find some vulnerability on the page and exploit it.
I think brute force should be the last thing tried.
FOr one thing, it is highly suspicious in the logs as having one IP address go through a couple hundred, or even thousand, tries to log in unsuccessfully!
The following conference presents Internet security issues in an entertaining and educational way by the use of interactive demonstrations about the installation and mechanism of hacking programs. It is not necessary to be an expert to know how to use these programs in order to attack individuals and organizations by sending Trojans, forging e-mail messages and stealing passwords. Fortunately, the practice of some important countermeasures, like installing security applications and updating software, will help us to protect ourselves from these criminal attacks.
Help I want to see what my significant other is doing through wifi hacking. I don't know his password I do come in contact with his phone here and there ,but can't access it. Someone help me please yes he's cheating. I just need solid proof. Please don't judge I just want to know if I could hack his phone through the same wifi and how.
RAIN S, i dont know enough about hacking stuff, cuz i m new to this field (only 1 month) but as per my own knowledge you can use remote hacking of the android device using meterpreter. i know just this but yeah sure there will be enough exploits for wifi in msf or just like that to meet your needs.
For god sake dont use youtube for learning hacking you will get only 1 out of 100 videos valid. OTW have many of his posts regarding metasploit basics you can learn metasploit there. and not to forget about the offensive security's course for metasploit basics you can also learn some of it there.(before you do anything make sure you have enough knowledge about linux basics command and networking and also languages). because hacking is not a one day game. its just like going to gym for years and building up your body and never willing to give up.
by David Legard SINGAPORE (IDG) -- The Singaporean Internet service provider SingNet has admitted that over the past week it carried out scans on the computer systems of 200,000 subscribers without their knowledge. The scans, which were detected by a subscriber who had fitted her computer with antihacking software, were performed to prevent a recurrence of a March incident where hackers were able to obtain passwords from 17 subscribers, SingNet said. The scans were carried out by computer experts from the Ministry of Home Affairs, which had helped crack the March hacking case.

News Radio Fusion audio primers Computerworld Minute The admission drew some angry comment in online newsgroups about privacy violations, with contributors urging SingNet subscribers to switch ISPs. In a statement released last week, Paul Chong, chief executive officer of Singapore Telecommunications' multimedia division, which runs SingNet, said there had been no invasion of customers' privacy and that the ISP had customers' best interests at heart. Looking for security loopholes Chong said that SingNet regretted not informing customers before the exercise, but said the ISP did not want to alert hackers or to unduly alarm its customers. The scanning program is not a hacking tool and has no ability to enter any computer system; rather, it is a defensive measure to look for security loopholes, Chong said. The scan checked computer systems' vulnerability to so-called Trojan horse attacks, SingNet said. A Trojan horse lets a hacker capture passwords and gain access to a person's PC and data. The Singaporean ISP used NetBus and Back Orifice scanning software, which was detected by a law student with Jammer antihacking software installed on her system, local press reported. Alarmed, the student contacted SingNet, which said it was responsible for the intrusion, press reports added. Back Orifice was developed last year by hacker group Cult of the Dead Cow. SingNet said it had discovered 900 computers infected with Trojan horse viruses during the week, and would inform owners by e-mail. Stopped scanning The ISP has stopped scanning while it seeks subscribers' views on preventive scanning measures, SingNet said. The ISP said it will call upon the independent National Internet Advisory Committee to certify that its scanning exercises are unobtrusive. Two other Singaporean ISPs, Cyberway and Pacific Internet, responded by placing gaudy advertisements on their Web sites for virus-detection software such as Jammer, Private Desktop, NukeNabber, and Anti-Gen.
Hacking could lead to loss of sensitive information, costing you not just money but the trust of your customers too. All businesses, big or small, are prone to hacking at any time. Some of the worst hacking attacks have revealed the vulnerable state of digital assets.
As public and private organizations shift their essential functions to the internet, criminals have seized the opportunity and incentive to attain access to critical data. Therefore, to secure the systems from the nuisance of hacking (evolved by the hackers), there is a need for a similar approach to security.
It could be guidelines in the final report on how to eliminate specific trojans, but most of the time the hacker performs this. Removing all traces as much as possible is an obligation for the hacking craft. An ethical hack poses specific risks if not done rightly.
Hey Everyone! I am happy to be sharing another blog post about a random hacking topic that many may not know about: Car Hacking! I want to state up front that, while I believe in the validity of this article, it is not the only attack vector in vehicles. I hope this serves as another way to think creatively about how devices and systems can be analyzed in order to gain some insights on how those controls may be used or even abused by an attacker.
It also needs to be said that the author nor Offensive Security will not be held liable if you attempt the laid out concepts in this article and it has an adverse result. There can be risk when hacking a vehicle. If you decide to attempt to hack a physical vehicle, do it at your own risk. Fortunately, a virtual option will be covered in this article, to provide exercise opportunities and get some hands-on experience.
