Son 2 gün içerisinde 3 kritik güvenlik açığı tespitim onaylandı. Her biri sistem bütünlüğü ve kullanıcı güvenliği açısından oldukça önemliydi.

You Should Know:

1. Vulnerability Scanning with Nmap

Use Nmap to detect open ports and services that may expose vulnerabilities:

nmap -sV --script vuln <target_IP>

2. Patch Management on Linux

Ensure all security patches are applied immediately:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

3. Windows Security Updates

Force Windows updates via PowerShell:

Install-Module PSWindowsUpdate -Force 
Get-WindowsUpdate -Install -AcceptAll -AutoReboot

4. SQL Injection Prevention

Test for SQLi vulnerabilities using SQLmap:

sqlmap -u "http://example.com/page?id=1" --risk=3 --level=5

5. Log Analysis for Intrusion Detection

Check suspicious login attempts in Linux auth logs:

grep "Failed password" /var/log/auth.log

6. Firewall Hardening

Block suspicious IPs using UFW (Linux):

sudo ufw deny from <malicious_IP>

7. Exploit Testing with Metasploit

Verify vulnerabilities using Metasploit Framework:

msfconsole 
use exploit/multi/handler 
set payload windows/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp 
set LHOST <your_IP> 
exploit

8. Secure SSH Access

Disable root login and enforce key-based authentication:

sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config 
PermitRootLogin no 
PasswordAuthentication no 

9. Malware Scanning with ClamAV

Scan for malware on Linux systems:

sudo clamscan -r --bell -i /

10. Web Application Firewall (WAF) Rules

Implement ModSecurity rules for Apache:

sudo apt install libapache2-mod-security2 
sudo mv /etc/modsecurity/modsecurity.conf-recommended /etc/modsecurity/modsecurity.conf 

What Undercode Say:

Critical vulnerabilities threaten system integrity and user security. Immediate patching, proactive scanning, and strict access controls are essential. Ethical hacking tools like Nmap, SQLmap, and Metasploit help identify flaws before attackers exploit them. Continuous monitoring and hardening of firewalls, SSH, and web applications reduce breach risks.

Prediction:

As cyber threats evolve, automated vulnerability scanning and AI-driven security tools will become standard in preventing zero-day exploits.

Expected Output:

  • Nmap scan results
  • Patched system logs
  • Blocked malicious IPs in UFW
  • SQLmap vulnerability report
  • Metasploit session logs
  • ClamAV malware detection log
