The Aastra 6753i IP telephone uses 3DES encrypted payloads in ECB mode to pass configuration files, allowing for modification to the phone's set up.

This whitepaper goes into detail on design and implementation details for performing voice encryption on telephone networks. Written in Spanish.

Whitepaper called Blue Team vs. Red Team: How to run your encrypted binaries in memory and go undetected. This paper discusses the golden frieza project.

The Global TV Android and iOS applications send potentially sensitive information such as device model and resolution, mobile carrier, days since first use, days since last use, total number of app launches, number of app launches since upgrade, and previous app session length, unencrypted to both first (CNAME to third) and third party sites (Adobe Experience Cloud, ScorecardResearch). Global TV Android versions 2.3.2 and below and iOS versions 4.7.5 and below are affected.

The Citytv Video Android and iOS applications send potentially sensitive information such as device model and resolution, mobile carrier, days since first use, days since last use, total number of app launches, number of app launches since upgrade, and previous app session length, unencrypted to third party sites (Adobe Experience Cloud, ScorecardResearch). Citytv Video Android versions 4.08.0 and below and iOS versions 3.36 and below are affected.

rcrypt is a Windows PE binary crypter (a type of packer) that makes use of timelock techniques to cause a delay in execution. This delay can cause analysis to fail on time constrained systems such as on disk scanners. rcrypt can pack exes and dll files. It bypasses KAV and many others. Archive password is 0xrage.com.

The Mandos system allows computers to have encrypted root file systems and at the same time be capable of remote or unattended reboots. The computers run a small client program in the initial RAM disk environment which will communicate with a server over a network. All network communication is encrypted using TLS. The clients are identified by the server using an OpenPGP key that is unique to each client. The server sends the clients an encrypted password. The encrypted password is decrypted by the clients using the same OpenPGP key, and the password is then used to unlock the root file system.

This Metasploit module exploits a well known remote code execution exploit after establishing encrypted control communications with a Data Protector agent. This allows exploitation of Data Protector agents that have been configured to only use encrypted control communications. This exploit works by executing the payload with Microsoft PowerShell so will only work against Windows Vista or newer. Tested against Data Protector 9.0 installed on Windows Server 2008 R2.

This is a proof of concept exploit that demonstrates the Microsoft Windows CryptoAPI spoofing vulnerability as described in CVE-2020-0601 and disclosed by the NSA.
