  • "Virtually every virus and worm that circulates the Internet today is ""protected"" by some form of obfuscation that hides the code's true intent. In the Window's world where worms prevail, the use of tools such as UPX, ASPack, and teLock has become standard. Protection of malicious code is not the only goal of binary obfuscators however which can be used to protect intellectual property. In the Linux world, tools such as Burneye and Shiva exist which can be used in ways similar to any Window's obfuscation tool.

    To fight such methods, analysts have created specific tools or techniques for unraveling these code obfuscators in order to reveal the software within. To date, in the fight against malware, anti-virus vendors have had the luxury of focusing on signature development since obfuscation of malware has presented little challenge. To combat this, malware authors are rapidly morphing their code in order to evade quickly developed and deployed signature-matching routines. What will happen when malware authors begin to morph their obfuscation techniques as rapidly as they morph their worms?

    While not designed specifically as a malware protection tool, one program, Shiva, aims to do exactly that. Shiva forces analysis of malicious code to be delayed while analysts fight through each novel mutation of Shiva's obfuscation mechanism. This, in effect, provides the malware a longer period of time to wreak havoc before countermeasures can be developed.

    This talk will focus on the use of emulated execution within IDA Pro to provide a generic means for rapidly deobfuscating protected code. Capabilities of the emulation engine will be discussed and the removal of several types of obfuscation will be demonstrated. Finally, the development of standalone deobfuscation tools based on the emulation engine will be discussed.

  • "With the cost of security experts increasing each year, it is expensive to audit critical systems as often as is needed. Worse yet, it is difficult to know how much to trust the reports since the worst consultants give the most positive answers. In order to address this problem, Caezar proposes a system for ranking the merit of security experts alone or in teams. Based on his years of experience with DEFCON Capture the Flag games, Caezar shows the difficulty of solving this problem in a fair and reliable manner. He will demonstrate the state-of-the-art technique used in this year's game and show insight into the eight teams, concentrating on the top two. Then, beginning with discussion of the failings of the International Chess Federation's (FIDE) ""Elo"" rating scheme, Caezar will propose a complete framework for ranking security professionals.

    By night, he donates his time and energy to the Ghetto Hackers organization; a group best known for dominating the annual DEFCON Capture the Flag contest. As the creator of the Root Fu scoring system, Caezar is the foremost authority on security contest scoring.

    By day, Mr. Eller has extensive experience in Internet embedded devices and protocol security. He invented fully automatic web vulnerability analysis and ASCII-armored stack overflow exploits, and contributed to several other inventions including a pattern language for describing network attacks. Mr. Eller's credits include the Black Hat Security Briefings and Training series, the Meet the Enemy seminars, ""Hack Proofing Your Network: Internet Tradecraft"", and the ""Caezar's Challenge"" think tank."

  • "New vulnerabilities to networks are discovered and published on a daily base. With each such announcement, the same questions arise. How significant is this vulnerability? How prevalent is this vulnerability? How easy is this vulnerability to exploit? Are any of my systems affected by this vulnerability? Due to lack of global vulnerability data, answers to these questions are often hard to find and risk rating is even more difficult.

    As part of ongoing research, Gerhard Eschelbeck of Qualys, Inc. has been gathering statistical vulnerability information for more than two years. Those vulnerabilities have been identified in the real world across hundreds of thousands of systems and networks. This data is not identifiable to individual users or systems. However, it provides significant statistical data for research and analysis, which enabled Gerhard to define the Laws of Vulnerabilities.

    The Laws of Vulnerabilities is derived from vulnerability data gathered during the past 30 months from over five million scans of individual systems from global organizations. During this timeframe a collective amount of more than three million vulnerabilities - reflecting multiple levels of severity and prevalence - has been identified. Furthermore, the responses to external events (i.e. availability of an exploit or worm taking advantage of a vulnerability) have been studied providing valuable lessons for attendees on how to protect networks and systems from evolving threats.

    Gerhard Eschelbeck is a respected CTO, researcher and author in the network security field. He published the now well-known ""Laws of Vulnerabilities,"" the industry's first research derived from a statistical analysis of millions of critical vulnerabilities collected across thousands of networks over a multi-year period. Eschelbeck presented his findings before Congress at the hearing on ""Worm and Virus Defense: How Can We Protect Our Nation's Computers from These Serious Threats?"" His research has been featured at major security conferences including Black Hat, CSI, and RSA and in numerous media outlets, including The Wall Street Journal, The Economist and others. Gerhard was named one of Infoworld's 25 Most Influential CTO's in 2003 and 2004 and is a significant contributor to the SANS Top 20 expert consensus identifying the most critical security vulnerabilities. Prior to joining Qualys, Eschelbeck was Senior VP of Engineering for security products at Network Associates, VP of Engineering of anti-virus products at McAfee Associates, and Founder of IDS GmbH, a secure remote control company acquired by McAfee. Earlier, he was a research scientist at the University of Linz, Austria, where he earned Masters and Ph.D. degrees in computer science and where he still teaches regularly in the field of network security. Eschelbeck has authored several papers on active security, automating security management, and multi-tier IDS. He is an inventor of numerous patents in the field of managed network security."

  • "This presentation explores the explosive growth of a technique known as ""Google Hacking"". When the modern security landscape includes such heady topics as ""blind SQL injection"" and ""integer overflows"", it's refreshing to see such a deceptively simple tool bent to achieve such amazing results; this is hacking in the purest sense of the word. Attendees will learn how to torque Google to detect SQL injection points and login portals, execute portscans and CGI scans, fingerprint web servers, locate incredible information caches such as firewall and IDS logs, password databases, SQL dumps and much more - all without sending a single packet to the target! Borrowing the techniques pioneered by malicious ""Google hackers"", this talk aims to show security practitioners how to properly protect clients from this often overlooked and dangerous form of information leakage.

    The speaker, Johnny Long, maintains the Internet's most comprehensive database of Google exposures on his website.

  • "Security professionals see the compromise of networked systems on a day to day basis. It's something they've come to expect. The blatant exploitation of operating systems, applications, and configurations is a common event and is taken into account by most security engineers. But a different type of security compromise threatens to crumble the underlying security of the modern organization.

    There are forms of communication that transfer sensitive data outside of organizations every day. Covert channels are used to move proprietary information in and out of commercial, private, and government entities on a daily basis. These covert channels include things such as Steganography, Covert network channels, Data File Header and Footer Appending, and Alternate Data Streams. Media to be covered include images, audio files, TCP covert channels, Word substitution mechanisms, the Windows file system and others.

    This presentation will show the attendees common means of covert communication by hiding information through multiple means. We'll also discuss the future of Covert Channels and how hidden information is becoming more and more difficult to detect. Detection of these forms of communication is trailing well behind the technology creating them, this presentation will discuss some of the newest concepts in utilizing Covert Channels and Steganography.

  • "In the case of vulnerabilities which allow the execution of arbitrary machine code, the reliability of exploitation is swayed by the type of vulnerability, the conditions surrounding the vulnerable code, and the attack vector, among other considerations. The reliability of exploitation an important factor for those attempting to exploit a vulnerability'especially so for worm and virus writers'so therefore it is also an important consideration for the threat analysis of security vulnerabilities.

    In Japan, some public institutions and non-governmental enterprises are providing detailed information and threat analyses of vulnerabilities, exploits, and worms. Because the majority of the systems in Japan run the Japanese version of Windows, the analysis and consideration of language-specific dependencies are very important factors for both the providers and consumers of such information in Japan, especially in case of the worms.

    Since one of highest priorities of a worm is to propagate as far as possible, some recent worms have employed techniques that avoid language and version dependencies, such as choosing return addresses that can be used across multiple language versions of Windows.

    In this presentation, the discussion of detailed and practical techniques to achieve environment independence will be avoided, but, at least understanding the technical overview and potentiality of these techniques is important for both providing proper threat analyses, and understanding them in depth.

    In Black Hat USA 2004, as part of our threat analysis research, we discussed return address discovery using context-aware machine code emulation'namely, our EEREAP project' which is intended to help prove whether universal return addresses exist. In Black Hat Japan 2004, we will expand on this presentation, and we will both explore the risk factors that aid in the avoidance of language and version dependencies, and show how to mitigate these risks.
