Disclosure: Apple ADE – Network Based Provisioning Bypass

Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions are used to centrally manage mobile devices in corporate environments. This includes the monitoring of the device, automatic installation/removal of apps or certificates and restrict the functionality. Even though MDM solutions exist for multiple vendors, we will look specifically on Apple devices enrolled via Intune. When an Apple device is registered for Automated Device Enrollment (ADE), it will automatically download and apply these policies during the initial setup and prior to the first boot.

During a customer project, we identified a network-based provisioning bypass which prevents the iPad to fetch and apply the provisioning profiles. Continue reading “Disclosure: Apple ADE – Network Based Provisioning Bypass”

BMBF UNCOVER – Monitoring von Sicherheitsvorfällen in Fahrzeugen

English Abstract

For the realization and introduction of autonomous vehicles, the safe interaction of functions, systems and services as well as their monitoring over the entire product life cycle is essential. An exclusive security-by-design approach is no longer sufficient and must be continuously supported by feedback obtained from in-the-wild operation. This is where the recently successfully completed joint project BMBF UNCOVER comes into play, which targets the requirements of the standards ISO/SAE 21434 (Road vehicles – Cybersecurity engineering) and ISO 21448 (Road vehicles – Safety of the intended functionality (SOTIF)).

Linux Character Devices: Exploring systemd-run and pkexec

In this blog post, we quickly look into issues involving character devices. As is typical for Linux, everything is a file, so character devices are referenced as files, such as pseudo terminals (pts) under /dev/pts/. man pty briefly introduces the topic. Essentially, it is used to connect a program, such as a terminal emulator, to a shell. In the end, a pty can read and write like a regular file. A colleague already brought up the topic of ptys and character devices. But more recently a Twitter post and the accompanying advisory piqued my interest.

Vulnerability in Jitsi Meet: Meeting Password Disclosure affecting Meetings with Lobbies

During a customer project, we identified a logic flaw in Jitsi Meet, an open-source video conferencing and messaging platform for secure video conferencing, voice calls, and messaging. The vulnerability affects password protected Jitsi meetings that make use of a lobby. This logic flaw leads to the disclosure of the meeting password when a user is invited to the call after waiting in the lobby.

Jitsi offers two security options to meeting moderators. Firstly, the meeting can be assigned a password that must be entered when joining. Secondly, a lobby mode can be activated, which first adds joining users to a lobby, from where they can then be added to the meeting by a user with moderation permissions.
