Collaborate Disseminate
Researchers have unveiled an attack that allows attackers to eavesdrop on homeowners inside their homes, through the LiDAR sensors on their robot vacuums. Continue reading Robot Vacuums Suck Up Sensitive Audio in ‘LidarPhone’ Hack
Rare attack on cellular protocol exploits an encryption-implementation flaw at base stations to record voice calls. Continue reading ReVoLTE Attack Allows Hackers to Listen in on Mobile Calls
The attack allows snooping of data from environments that are highly secure or air-gapped, using infrared signals from smart bulbs. Continue reading Researchers Shine Light on Smart-Bulb Data Theft
The contents of the user’s screen can be gleaned through video or VoIP calls, or voice-operated virtual assistants, like Amazon Alexa. Continue reading Side-Channel Attack Allows Remote Listener to ‘Hear’ On-Screen Images
With an OS design based on a verified microkernel, researchers contend almost all Linux OS flaws could be mitigated to less than critical severity. Continue reading Researchers Blame ‘Monolithic’ Linux Code Base for Critical Vulnerabilities
Rather than eliminating bugs, the idea is to add large numbers of non-exploitable bugs to software as decoys to waste cyber-criminals’ time. Continue reading ‘Chaff Bug’ Defense Rolls Out Shiny Objects for Attackers to Find
A team of academic researchers has demonstrated that it’s possible to possible to closely mimic legitimate voice commands in order to carry out nefarious actions on these home assistants. Continue reading ‘Voice-Squatting’ Turns Alexa, Google Home into Silent Spies
