APT DNA Clustering and Defense Kungfu

by Anthony LAI & Benson Wu & Birdman

We are always busy with malware analysis, simply close our door and work on deep reverse engineering and behavior analysis, however, does the analyst know the enterprise/organization suffering from APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) or we call "Targeted" attack? We have carried out research against Mila's sample archives to show you our latest APT "gangs" clustering analysis and our engine to decide whether the attachment is an APT and application about digging them out from the mailbox instead of depending on those "built-in" anti-virus engine. If you believe Anti-virus software could save you from this threat, please come and join our session, dudes.

Anthony Lai (aka Darkfloyd) has worked on code audit, penetration test, crime investigation and threat analysis and acted as security consultant in various MNCs.

Anthony has worked with researchers to convey talks about Chinese malware and Internet Censorship in Blackhat 2010 and DEFCON 18. His interest falls on studying exploit, reverse engineering, analyse threat and join CTFs, it would be nice to keep going and boost this China-made security wind in malware analysis and advanced persistent threat areas.

He has found VXRL (Valkyrie-X Security Research Group) in Hong Kong and keep themselves to connect to and work with various prominent and respectable hackers and researchers. (Anthony Lai Twitter:: anthonation / Facebook: Anthony Lai)

Benson Wu focuses research on detect and counter advanced persistent threat, code review, secure coding and SDLC process implementation.

He graduated from National Taiwan University with PhD in Electrical Engineering and National Chiao-Tung University with MS in Computer Science; and held ECSP, CEI, CSSLP certifications. Currently, he is with Xecure Lab as Lead Security Researcher, and Research Center for Information Technology Innovation, Academia Sinica as Postdoctoral.

He had spoken at NIST SATE 2009, DEFCON 18 (with Birdman), OWASP China 2010, BoT (Botnets in Taiwan) 2011, HIT (Hacks in Taiwan) 2011, and wrote the "Web Application Security Guideline" for the Taiwan government since year 2007.

Jeremy Chiu (aka Birdman) has more than ten years of experience with host-based security, focusing on kernel technologies for both the Win32 and Linux platforms.

In early 2001 he created Taiwan's first widespread trojan BirdSPY. And now, he is also a contract trainer for law enforcements, intelligence organizations, and conferences such as DEFCON 18 19, SySCAN (09 08), Hacks in Taiwan (07 06 05), HTICA(06 08) and OWASP Asia (08 07).

In 2005, Jeremy founded X-Solve Inc. and successfully developed forensics and anti-malware products. In July 2007, X-Solve was acquired by Armorize Technologies. In Oct 2010, he left Armorize and created a new research team, Xecure-Lab.

Chip & PIN is Definitely Broken: Protocol and Physical Analysis of EMV POS Devices

by Andrea Barisani & Daniele Bianco

The EMV global standard for electronic payments is widely used for inter-operation between chip equipped credit/debit cards, Point of Sales devices and ATMs. Following the trail of the serious vulnerabilities published by Murdoch and Drimer’s team at Cambridge University regarding the usage of stolen cards, we explore the feasibility of skimming and cloning in the context of POS usage. We will analyze in detail EMV flaws in PIN protection and illustrate skimming prototypes that can be covertly used to harvest credit card information as well as PIN numbers regardless the type/configuration of the card. Our updated research also explores in depth the design, implementation and effectiveness of tamper proof sensors in modern and widely used POS terminals, illustrating different techniques for bypass and physical compromise. As usual cool gear and videos are going to be featured in order to maximize the presentation.

Andrea Barisani is a security researcher and consultant. His professional career began 10 years ago but all really started when a Commodore-64 first arrived in his home when he was 10. Now, 18 years later, Andrea is having fun with large-scale IDS/Firewalls deployment and administration, forensic analysis, vulnerability assessment, penetration testing, security training and his Open Source projects. He eventually found that system and security administration are the only effective way to express his need for paranoia.

SQL Injection from Past to Now

by Orange

SQL Injection is a problem in Web Security for more than 10 years. But people or scripting kids use the same way or use automatic tools to attack websites. My topic is major in MySQL, especially in

some tricks in SQL Injection which are less well known for people. In my presentation, part-1 is introduction of some tricks on obtaining data in SQL Injection. It is a better way in some situations which only Blind Injection allowed. Part-2 is introduction of how to exploit MySQL triggers. It perform an injection that contains multiple SQL sentence, such as UPDATE, INSERT, even a system command.

PANEL 2: An In Depth Discussion on Developers and Browsers

by Amachang & Hoshikuzu & Hasegawa

Creating secure web applications is an endless battle between developers and the Browser. To what extent must developers know about every Web Browser's idiosyncracies? With attackers who are highly skilled and hold in depth knowledge of the Browsers and how to abuse them, is it really possible for developers to protect their applications without being experts in every browsers' quirks or idiosyncracies? In this session we will be discussing what we can do now for securing web applications; with developer's who are working the front lines Amachang and the famous Hoshikuzu and Hasegawa.

Amachang (TBA)

Android Application Obfuscation

by Yoshitaka Kato

In recent years more and more applications in the Android Market are being subjected to obfuscation techniques. This most likely means more and more companies are using these obfuscation tools during their development of Android applications. However, we must deal with the code these tools produce as well as reverse engineer them to an effective degree, even if we may not know or be familiar with them. In this talk I will discuss a tool called Proguard and it's obfuscation methods and effectiveness for obfuscating Android applications.

Yoshitaka Kato: Has worked on a wide range of jobs as a Security Analyst on anything from web and smart phone application assessments to binary analysis. He is currently aiming for a position as a "security business' oxidized silver" and "master of communication."

Differences of the TSC behavior between The Virtual Machine and The Real Machine

by wakatono

There is many differences between the virtual machine environment on virtual machine monitor(VMM) and the real machine, even though these environments looks same.

These differences is caused by many factors including the differences of CPUs, VMM implementations, and so on.

In this presentation, I show differences of the Time Stamp Counter(TSC) behavior on the VMM and the real machine, and make demonstration to use these differences.

Dr. wakatono is one of researchers in an IT systems company. His private works and results are more than those of his company work. He has been interested in the security of OS or a network. And he started to research security technology about client computers and virtual machine monitors in early days, when many of engineers had been interested in server computers and networks. In Mar. 2011, he graduated some institute in Japan, and received degree of Ph.D. in Informatics. Twitter ID: @wakatono Website of my profile and works: http://www.pfsec.net/ (sorry in Japanese)
