This week has been eventful in the cybersecurity world, with major developments including MITRE’s CVE contract ending, 4Chan being hacked, BreachForums going down, and PRODAFT launching its SYS initiative to acquire user accounts from darknet forums.
You Should Know:
1. MITRE CVE Program Transition
MITRE’s long-standing CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) program contract is ending, raising questions about future vulnerability tracking. Key commands to check CVE databases:
Search for CVEs using cve-search (Linux) git clone https://github.com/cve-search/cve-search.git cd cve-search pip3 install -r requirements.txt ./sbin/db_mgmt.py -p ./sbin/db_cpe_browser.py -p
2. 4Chan Hack
4Chan, the infamous forum, was reportedly compromised. To check if your data was leaked:
Use haveibeenpwned CLI tool curl -s "https://haveibeenpwned.com/api/v3/breach/4chan" | jq
3. BreachForums Down
BreachForums, a notorious hacking forum, is currently inaccessible. Monitor its status with:
Check if a website is up ping breachforums.st curl -I https://breachforums.st
4. PRODAFT’s SYS Initiative
PRODAFT’s new SYS initiative targets darknet account acquisitions. To secure your accounts:
Enable 2FA on Linux (Google Authenticator) sudo apt install libpam-google-authenticator google-authenticator
What Undercode Say:
The cybersecurity landscape is rapidly evolving, with threat actors and defenders in a constant battle. Key takeaways:
– Monitor CVEs with cve-search.
– Check data breaches using haveibeenpwned.
– Secure accounts with 2FA (libpam-google-authenticator).
– Track darknet threats via OSINT tools like theHarvester:
theHarvester -d example.com -b all
Stay vigilant with these commands to protect your systems.
Expected Output:
CVE-2024-XXXX | Critical Vulnerability Detected 4Chan Breach | User Data Exposed BreachForums Status: OFFLINE PRODAFT SYS Initiative Active
