At Huntress, our goal is not only to chase after changing threats but to remove obstacles that get in the way of new security innovation.
There’s no end to the stealthy ways in which attackers develop and execute their tradecraft. In this case, it's as simple as hiding in plain sight.
An attacker with access to a hostNetwork=true container with CAP_NET_RAW capability can listen to all the traffic going through the host and inject arbitrary traffic, allowing to tamper with most unencrypted traffic (HTTP, DNS, DHCP, ...), and disrupt encrypted traffic. In GKE the host queries the metadata service at http://169[.]254.169.254 to get information, including the authorized SSH keys. By manipulating the metadata service responses and injecting our own SSH key, it is possible to gain…

Useful feature that can help forensic analysts and incident responders to reconstruct user activities.
GuardDuty detected CloudTrail being outright disabled, but did not detect if an attacker with the necessary permissions filtered out all events from CloudTrail via PutEventSelectors, resulting in defenders having no logs to review. AWS fixed this issue by adding a GuardDuty detection that triggers if PutEventSelectors is used to disable all event types.
Google Cloudshell leveraged websockets without validating that the origin matched the current instance host. An attacker could therefore host a CSWSH attack on a Cloudshell instance they own, disabling authentication via access to the underlying VM. They could then start the OAuth process with a spoofed host header, using phishing to get the target Cloud Shell user into following a redirection link, completing the OAuth process and ending in successful CSWSH, which would allow the attacker to h…
A vulnerability in Google's common JavaScript library allowed bypassing domain validation checks across multiple Google products. By using a backslash character in URLs, an attacker could make the regex parser and browser disagree on the authority (domain) portion of a URL, allowing injection of arbitrary domains that pass whitelisting checks.
