This Week in Security: AirBorne, EvilNotify, and Revoked RDP
1 min read
Summary
Oligo has discovered 23 vulnerabilities, collectively called AirBorne, which affects Apple Airplay and SDK.
These vulnerabilities affect Mac desktops and laptops, as well as iOS and iPadOS devices, and IoT devices that use the Apple SDK for Airplay.
The issues range from authentication bypasses to local file reads, and even Remote Code Execution (RCE).
Apple has released patches for all the CVEs.
However, the IoT devices constructed with the vulnerable SDK will take a long time to clean up, and many may never get updated.
Guilherme Rambo discovered that the Darwin Notification system in Apple’s Inter Process Communications has no verification system, allowing for misinformation.
John Stawinski discovered that the Node.js CI would run any code regardless of the timestamp on a pull request - all that was required was to add a commit with a timestamp in the past to the target PR, and the CI job would run the (now malicious) code.
Microsoft has claimed that it is not a vulnerability that Windows machines accept revoked credentials for Remote Desktop Protocol (RCE) logins.
