Welcome to my 4th new tutorial of the series of networking. In this blog you'll the content about network switches. You'll learn about how to make a communication successful and secure in the same network (LAN) by using STP. As Spanning tree protocol (STP) we used in multi-switched networks. Why we use this protocol in multi-switched network etc.
What is Switch?
A switch is an intelligent device used to connect multiple devices within the same network. The intelligence of is that it requires Media Access Control (MAC) address for communication and doesn't allow broadcast. Let's understand the whole thing by a little example, consider there is a network having 3 end devices name Device-A, Device-B,Device-C connected with each other respectively with the help of switch. When a Device-A sends data to Device-C so that data will only forwarded by switch to Device-C not to Device-B.
What is Media Access Control (MAC) address?
A Media Access Control (MAC) address is 48-bit unique physical address given to network interface controller (NIC) or network adapter, for communication within the same network which is given by its manufacturer. It is made up of hexadecimal numbers like a1:b1:cc:ac:2e:f1.
What is STP?
STP stands for Spanning tree protocol which is basically used in bridge and switches to prevent loops when you have a redundant links in the Ethernet networks. If the loop is present in the Ethernet network so the whole network will suffer because there will MAC instability in the MAC table, duplicate frames generation and so on. Let's move to the video for further detail.
"dsniff is a collection of tools for network auditing and penetration testing. dsniff, filesnarf, mailsnarf, msgsnarf, urlsnarf, and webspy passively monitor a network for interesting data (passwords, e-mail, files, etc.). arpspoof, dnsspoof, and macof facilitate the interception of network traffic normally unavailable to an attacker (e.g, due to layer-2 switching). sshmitm and webmitm implement active monkey-in-the-middle attacks against redirected SSH and HTTPS sessions by exploiting weak bindings in ad-hoc PKI." read more...
"DirBuster is a multi threaded java application designed to brute force directories and files names on web/application servers. Often is the case now of what looks like a web server in a state of default installation is actually not, and has pages and applications hidden within. DirBuster attempts to find these. However tools of this nature are often as only good as the directory and file list they come with. A different approach was taken to generating this. The list was generated from scratch, by crawling the Internet and collecting the directory and files that are actually used by developers! DirBuster comes a total of 9 different lists (Further information can be found below), this makes DirBuster extremely effective at finding those hidden files and directories. And if that was not enough DirBuster also has the option to perform a pure brute force, which leaves the hidden directories and files nowhere to hide! If you have the time ;) " read more...
A step by step lab based mini course on analyzing your car network
I wanted to learn about hacking cars. As usual I searched around the internet and didn't find any comprehensive resources on how to do this, just bits and pieces of the same info over and over which is frustrating. I am not a car hacking expert, I just like to hack stuff. This mini course will run in a fully simulated lab environment available from open garages, which means in 5 minutes from now you can follow along and hack cars without ever bricking your girlfriends car. Since you obviously wouldn't attack your own Lambo, totally use your girlfriends Prius.
Below are the topics covered in this blogseries so you can decide if you want to read further:
Whats covered in this car hacking mini course:
Setting up Virtual Environments for testing
Sniffing CAN Traffic
Parsing CAN Traffic
Reverse Engineering CAN IDs
Denial of service attacks
Replaying/Injecting Traffic
Coding your own CAN Socket Tools in python
Targeted attacks against your cars components
Transitioning this to attacking a real car with hardware
The first thing we are going to do before we get into any car hacking specifics such as "WTF is CAN?", is get your lab up and running. We are going to run a simple simulated CAN Bus network which controls various features of your simulated car. Its better to learn by doing then sit here and recite a bunch of car network lingo at you and hope you remember it.
I also don't want you to buy a bunch of hardware and jack into your real car right away. Instead there are options that can get you started hacking cars RIGHT NOW by following along with this tutorial. This will also serve to take away the fear of hacking your actual car by understanding what your doing first.
Video Playlist:
Setting up your Lab:
First things first, set yourself up with an Ubuntu VMware install, and load it up. Optionally you could use a Kali Iinux VM, however, that thing drives me nuts with copy paste issues and I think Kayak was giving me install problems. So support is on you if you would like to use Kali. However, I do know Kali will work fine with OpenGarages virtual car.. So feel free to use it for that if you have it handy and want to get started right away.
Install PreReq Libraries:
Once you load this up you are going to want to install CAN utilities and pre-requisite libraries. This is really easy to do with the following Apt-get commands:
Once this is done we can startup the simulator by changing directories to the downloaded repo and running the following 2 commands, which will setup a virtual CAN interface and a simulator GUI Cluster:
Run the setup Script to get the vcan0 interface up:
root@kali:~/ICSim# ./setup_vcan.sh
root@kali:~/ICSim# ./icsim vcan0
On a new terminal tab we will open up our simulators controller with the following command,
root@kali:~/ICSim#./controls vcan0
Note: that the controller must be the in-focus GUI screen to send keyboard commands to the simulator.
How to Use the Simulator:
The simulator has a speedometer with Right and Left turn signals, doors etc. Below are the list of commands to control the simulator when the Control panel is in focus. Give them each a try and note the changes to the simulator.
Up and Down keys control the gauges clusters speedometer
Left and Right keys Control the Blinkers
Right Shift + X, A or B open doors
Left Shift + X, A or be Close doors
Try a few of the above commands for example Right Shift +X and you will see the interface change like so, notice the open door graphic:
Awesome, thanks to OpenGarages you now you have your very own car to hack
Notice in the setup commands above we used a VCan0 interface. Run Ifconfig and you will now see that you indeed have a new network interface that speaks to the CAN network over VCan0.
ficti0n@ubuntu:~/Desktop/ICSim$ ifconfig vcan0
vcan0 Link encap:UNSPECHWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00
Car networks run on a variety of protocols most prevalent being CAN. You can think of a CAN Bus like an old school networking hub where everyone can see everyone elses traffic. This is true to some extent although you may not see all of the cars traffic if its not connected to that particular bus your plugged into. You can think of CAN traffic kind of like UDP in that its send and forget, the main difference being parts of the CAN bus network don't actually have addresses and everything runs off arbitration IDs and priorities. Thats enough background to get you doing rather then reading.
With a little knowledge out of the way lets check if we can see our CAN traffic from our virtual car via the CanDump utility, which you installed as part of CanUtils package above. Using the following command on the vcan0 interface our simulator uses you can view a stream of traffic:
ficti0n@ubuntu:~/Desktop/ICSim$ candump vcan0
Above we can see a bunch of CAN frames, and if we perform actions on the vehicle we will see changes to data values in the CanDump output.However this may happen very fast, and we may not be able to see if for example we unlocked our simulators door. This is because things are changing constantly in the cars IDLE state. One single value changing may not stand out enough for us to take notice or may scroll so fast we cant see it.
Capture and Replay CAN Actions:
One option would be to perform an action and replay it, we should see the actions happen again in the replay if the traffic for the action we recorded is on the same bus network our device is plugged into. There are loads of networks within a car and its not guaranteed our network tap for example an OBD2 port plugin is connected to the same network as door we opened.Or the door may not be connected to the network at all depending on your car and its age or how its configured.
Replaying dumps with CanPlayer:
Another useful tool included with CanUtils package is CanPlayer for replaying traffic. If the functionality we are trying to capture is on the same Bus as the adaptor plugged into the car, or in this case our Virtual CAN interface, we can use CanDump to save traffic to a file. We then use CanPlayer to replay the traffic on the network. For example lets run CanDump and open a door and then replay the functionality with CanPlayer.
Lab 1 Steps:
Run CanDump
Right Shift + X to open a door
Cancel CanDump (ctrl+c)
Left Shift + X to close the door
Run can player with the saved dump and it will replay the traffic and open the door
Recording the door opening:(-l for logging)
ficti0n@ubuntu:~/Desktop/ICSim$ candump -l vcan0
Replaying the CanDump file:(use the file your can dump created)
Nice, so if all went well you should see that your door is now open again. If this did not happen when attacking a real car, just try to replay it again. CAN networks are not like TCP/IP, they are more like UDP in that you send out your request and its not expecting a response. So if it gets lost then it gets lost and you have to resend. Perhaps something with higher priority on the network was sending at the time of your replay and your traffic was overshadowed by it.
Interacting with the Can Bus and Reversing Traffic:
So thats cool, but what about actually understanding what is going on with this traffic, CanDump is not very useful for this, is scrolls by to quickly for us to learn much from.Instead we can use CanSniffer with colorized output to show us the bytes within packets that change. Below is an example of CanSniffer Traffic:
You will see 3 fields, Time, IDand Data. Its pretty easy to figure out what these are based on thier name. The most important part for our usage in this blog are the ID and the Data fields.
The ID field is the frame ID which is loosely associated with the device on the network which is effected by the frame being sent. The ID to also determines the priority of the frame on the network.The lower the number of the CAN-ID the higher priority it has on the network and more likely it will be handled first.The data field is the data being sent to change some parameter like unlocking a door or updating output. You will notice that some of the bytes are highlighted RED. The values in red are the values that are changing during the idle state you are currently in.
Determine which ID and Byte controls the throttle:
So with the terminal sniffing window open put the simulator and the controller into the foreground, with the controller being the window you have clicked and selected.Pay attention to the CanSniffer output while hitting the UP ARROW and look for a value that was white but is now Red and increasing in value as the throttle goes up.This might take you a few minutes of paying attention to whats going on to see.
The following 2 pictures show ID 244 in the IDLE state followed by pressing the up button to increase the speed. You will notice a byte has turned red and is increasing in value through a range of HEX values 0-F. It will continue to enumerate through values till it reaches its max speed.
The byte in ID 244 which is changing is the value while the throttle is engaged, so 244 associated in some way with the increasing speed. The throttle speed is a good value to start with as it keeps increasing its value when pressed making it easier to spot while viewing the CanSniffer output.
Singling out Values with Filters:
If you would like to single out the throttle value then click the terminal window and press -000000 followed by the Enter key which will clear out all of the values scrolling. Then press +244 followed by the Enter key which will add back the throttle ID. You can now click the controller again and increase the speed with your Up arrow button without all the noise clouding your view.You will instead as shown below only have ID 244 in your output:
To get back all of the IDs again click the terminal window and input +000000 followed by the Enter key. Now you should see all of the output as before.Essentially 000000 means include everything. But when you put a minus in front of it then it negates everything and clears your terminal window filtering out all values.
Determine Blinker ID:
Now lets figure out another ID for the blinkers. If you hit the left or right arrow with the controls window selected you will notice a whole new ID appears in the list, ID 188 shown in the picture below which is associated with the blinker.
This ID was not listed before as it was not in use within the data output until you pressed the blinker control.Lets single this value out by pressing -000000 followed by +188. Just like in the throttle example your terminal should only show ID 188, initially it will show with 00 byte values.
As you press the left and the right blinker you will see the first Byte change from 00 to 01 or 02. If neither is pressed as in the screenshot above it will be 00. Its kind of hard to have the controller in focus and get a screenshot at the same time but the ID will remain visible as 00 until it times out and disappears from the list when not active. However with it filtered out as above you can get a better view of things and it wont disappear.
Time for YOU to do some Protocol Reversing:
This lab will give you a good idea how to reverse all of the functionality of the car and associate each action with the proper ID and BYTE. This way you can create a map of intended functionality changes you wish to make.Above we have done a few walk throughs with you on how to determine which byte and ID is associated with an action. Now its time to map everything out yourself with all the remaining functionality before moving on to attacking individual components.
Lab Work Suggestion:
Take out a piece of paper and a pencil
Try unlocking and locking doors and write down the ID which controls this action (remember your filters)
Try unlocking each door and write down the BYTES needed for each door to open
Try locking each doors and what Bytes change and what are their values, write them down
Do the same thing for the blinkers left and right (Might be different then what I did above)
What ID is the speedometer using?What byte changes the speed?
Attacking Functionality Directly:
With all of the functionality mapped out we can now try to target various devices in the network directly without interacting with the controllers GUI. Maybe we broke into the car via cellular OnStar connectionor the center console units BLE connection which was connected to the CAN network in some way. After an exploit we have direct access to the CAN network and we would like to perform actions. Or maybe you have installed a wireless device into an OBD2 port under the dashboard you have remote access to the automobile.
Using the data from the CAN network reversing lab above we can call these actions directly with the proper CAN-ID and Byte.Since we are remote to the target we can't just reach over and grab the steering wheel or hit the throttle we will instead send your CAN frame to make the change.
One way we can do this is via the CanSend utility. Lets take our information from our lab above and make the left turn signal flash with the following ID 188 for the turn signal by changing the first byte to 01 indicating the left signal is pressed. CanSend uses the format ID#Data. You will see this below when sending the turn signal via CanSend.
You should have noticed that the left signal flashed. If not pay more attention and give it another try or make sure you used the correct ID and changed the correct byte.So lets do the same thing with the throttle and try to set the speed to something with ID 244 that we determined was the throttle.
My guess is that nothing happened because its so fast the needle is not going to jump to that value. So instead lets try repeating this over and over again with a bash loop which simply says that while True keep sending the throttle value of 11 which equates to about 30mph:
ficti0n@ubuntu:~/Desktop/ICSim$ while true; do cansend vcan0 244#00000011F6;done
Yes thats much better, you may notice the needle jumping back and forth a bit. The reason the needle is bouncing back and forth is because the normal CAN traffic is sent telling the car its actually set to 00 in between your frames saying its 30mph.But it worked and you have now changed the speed the car sees and you have flashed the blinker without using the cars normal blinker controls. Pretty cool right?
Monitor the CAN Bus and react to it:
Another way to handle this issue is to monitor the CAN network and when it sees an ID sent it will automatically send the corresponding ID with a different value.. Lets give that a try to modify our speed output by monitoring for changes. Below we are simply running CanDump and parsing for ID 244 in the log output which is the throttle value that tells the car the speed. When a device in the car reports ID 244 and its value we will immediately resend our own value saying the speed is 30mph with the value 11.See below command and try this out.
ficti0n@ubuntu:~/Desktop/ICSim$ candump vcan0 | grep " 244 " | while read line; do cansend vcan0 244#00000011F6; done
With this running after a few seconds you will see the speed adjust to around 30MPH once it captures a legitimate CAN-ID 244 from the network traffic and sends its own value right after.
Ok cool, so now while the above command is still running click the controller window and start holding down the Up arrow with the controller in focus.. After a few seconds or so when the speed gets above 30MPH you will see the needle fighting for the real higher value and adjusting back to 30MPH as your command keeps sending its on value as a replacement to the real speed.
So thats one way of monitoring the network and reacting to what you see in a very crude manner.Maybe someone stole your car and you want to monitor for an open door and if they try to open the door it immediately locks them in.
Conclusion and whats next:
I am not an expert car hacker but I hope you enjoyed this. Thats about as far as I want to go into this subject today, in the next blog we will get into how to code python to perform actions on the CAN network to manipulate things in a similar way.With your own code you are not limited to the functionality of the tools you are provided and can do whatever you want. This is much more powerful then just using the CanUtils pre defined tools. Later on I will also get into the hardware side of things if you would like to try this on a real car where things are more complicated and things can go wrong.

Welcome to my another tutorial of PHP and MYSQL. In the previous tutorial I've briefly discussed How to make a PHP file and How to save the PHP file in the root directory of the server. How to run PHP script over the Web Browser etc.
Now in this tutorial I've discussed about inserting data into database by getting the values from user with the help of HTML form. One thing should be remembered that getting a values from users by HTML form is the only way to get values from users in PHP.
How To Insert Data into Database
Step 1:
Open your text editor and create HTML form.
Step 2:
Make a database connection in PHP.
Step 3:
Write an INSERT query for the sake of insertion data into database like INSERT INTO table_Name(table_Attribute1, table_Attribute2....) VALUES('1', 'Alex'...); etc. Now watch the video to make a better understanding the concept of insertion.
Advantage of Ethical Hacking Hacking is quite useful in the following purpose- 1-To recover lost information, especially in case you lost your password. 2-To perform penetration testing to strengthen computer and network security.
3-To put adequate preventative measure in place to prevent security breaches. 4-To have a computer system that prevents malicious hackers from gaining access.
5-Fighting against terrorism and national security breaches.
When we published our research on network printer security at the beginning of the year, one major point of criticism was that the tested printers models had been quite old. This is a legitimate argument. Most of the evaluated devices had been in use at our university for years and one may raise the question if new printers share the same weaknesses.
35 year old bugs features
The key point here is that we exploited PostScript and PJL interpreters. Both printer languages are ancient, de-facto standards and still supported by almost any laser printer out there. And as it seems, they are not going to disappear anytime soon. Recently, we got the chance to test a $2,799 HP PageWide Color Flow MFP 586 brand-new high-end printer. Like its various predecessors, the device was vulnerable to the following attacks:
Capture print jobs of other users if they used PostScript as a printer driver; This is done by first infecting the device with PostScript code
Manipulate printouts of other users (overlay graphics, introduce misspellings, etc.) by infecting the device with PostScript malware
List, read from and write to files on the printers file system with PostScript as well as PJL functions; limited to certain directories
Recover passwords for PostScript and PJL credentials; This is not an attack per se but the implementation makes brute-force rather easy
Launch denial of Service attacks of various kinds:
Note that the product was tested in the default configuration. To be fair, one has to say that the HP PageWide Color Flow MFP 586 allows strong, Kerberos based user authentication. The permission to print, and therefore to attack the device, can be be limited to certain employees, if configured correctly. The attacks can be easily reproduced using our PRET software. We informed HP's Software Security Response Team (SSRT) in February.
Conclusion: Christian Slater is right
PostScript and PJL based security weaknesses have been present in laser printers for decades. Both languages make no clear distinction between page description and printer control functionality. Using the very same channel for data (to be printed) and code (to control the device) makes printers insecure by design. Manufacturers however are hard to blame. When the languages were invented, printers used to be connected to a computer's parallel or serial port. No one probably thought about taking over a printer from the web (actually the WWW did not even exist, when PostScript was invented back in 1982). So, what to do? Cutting support for established and reliable languages like PostScript from one day to the next would break compatibility with existing printer drivers. As long as we have legacy languages, we need workarounds to mitigate the risks. Otherwise, "The Wolf" like scenarios can get very real in your office…
Zoom Conference scanner. This scanner will check for a random meeting id and return information if available. Usage This are all the possible flags:
tangalanga \ -token=user-token \ # [default: env TOKEN] user token to use.
-colors=false \ # [default: true] enable/disable colors -censor=true \ # [default: false] censors output -output=history \ # [default: stdout] write found meetings to file -debug=true \ # [default: false] show all the attmpts -tor=true \ # [default: false] enable tor connection (will use default socks proxy) -hidden=true \ # [default: false] enable embedded tor connection (only linux) -rate=7 \ # [default: ncpu] overwrite the default worker pool
-proxy=socks5://... \ # [default: socks5://127.0.0.1:9150] proxy url to use
Tokens Unfortunately I couldn't find the way the tokens are being generated but the core concept is that the zpkcookie key is being sent during a Join will be usable for ~24 hours before expiring. This makes trivial to join several known meetings, gether some tokens and then use them for the scans.
TOR (only linux) Tangalanga has a tor runtime embedded so it can connect to the onion network and run the queries there instead of exposing your own ip.
For any other system I recommend a VPN
Why the bizarre name? This makes reference to a famous 80s/90s personality in the Rio de la Plata. Doctor Tangalanga who loved to do phone pranks.
