Chiron – An All-In-One IPv6 Penetration Testing Framework

This is a guest post from Antonios Atlasis.

Last week I had the pleasure to give you my impressions regarding my experience about hacking for b33r at Ghent, that is, my participation at BruCON 2014 hacking conference. As I said among else, the reason that I was there was to present Chiron, my IPv6 penetration testing/security assessment framework, which was supported by the Brucon 5×5 program. The first version of Chiron had been presented at Troopers 14, during the IPv6 Security Summit.

“Hacking for a B33r” at Ghent

This is a guest post by Antonios Atlasis.

This week I had the pleasure to attend BruCON 2014. While participating at the Brucon 5×5 program, I had also the chance to attend this well-known European Con which is held in the beautiful city of Ghent.

Security Implications of Disruptive Technologies

Yesterday I gave a talk with the above title in a private setting. Given it might be of interest for some of you, the slides can be found here.

Have a great weekend everybody

MLD and Neighbor Discovery. Are They Related?

This is a guest post from Antonios Atlasis.

Today we had the opportunity at ERNW to have a full-day discussion about MLD. The discussion was led by Jayson Salazar who writes his thesis on the topic.

For the newcomers to IPv6 world, the purpose of MLD, a subprotocol of IPv6, as defined in RFC 2710, is “to enable each IPv6 router to discover the presence of multicast listeners (that is, nodes wishing to receive multicast packets) on its directly attached links, and to discover specifically which multicast addresses are of interest to those neighboring nodes.” MLD was updated by MLDv2 in RFC 3810 in order to “add the ability for a node to report interest in listening to packets with a particular multicast address only from specific source addresses or from all sources except for specific source addresses.”

Atomic Fragments vs. Fragmentation in the IPv6 “Real World”

This is a guest post by Antonios Atlasis.

Continuing the discussion about the IPv6 Atomic Fragments started at the IPv6 hacker’s mailing list and the freshly proposed draft RFC regarding the deprecation of the generation of IPv6 Atomic Fragments, we decided to check very quickly what is the current situation regarding the acceptance or the rejection of Atomic fragments in the “real world”. Thanks to Rafael Schaefer and the RISC lab at ERNW, we got some first measurements really fast.

Packet Too Big Messages and Atomic Fragments

This is a guest post from Antonios Atlasis.

Taking the chance from a discussion on the IPv6 hacker’s mailing list and the freshly proposed draft RFC regarding the deprecation of the generation of IPv6 Atomic Fragments, I decided to test very quickly what is the current status related with the latest and some of the most poplar Operating Systems (OS) status (whether they send Atomic Fragments in response to Packet Too Big messages, or not). The motivation behind this was to check which one of them is potentially vulnerable to the DoS attack using the technique described in the above proposed RFC and taking it for granted that Atomic Fragments are blocked in the real world (but more about this, in another blogpost in the near future).

Evading IDPS by Combining IPv6 Extension Headers and Fragmentation “Features” – The Story of My Life…

This is a guest post from Antonios Atlasis.

In the “A Novel Way of Abusing IPv6 Extension Headers to Evade IPv6 Security Devices” blogpost I described a way to evade a high-end commercial IDPS device, the Tipping Point IDPS (TOS Tipping Point, Package 3.6.1.4036 and vaccine 3.2.0.8530 digital), by abusing a minor detail at the IPv6 specification. As I promised at the end of that blogpost, this is not the end. In this blogpost I am going to describe several new and different ways of evading another popular IDPS, an open-source one this time, Suricata.

IPv6 for Managers

We’re currently involved in a number of IPv6 activities in different organizations and one of the questions we are still facing – even in cases where there’s already a (in most cases networking team driven/originated) “project” (incl. budget, project sponsor, milestones etc.) – is along the lines of “How to sell IPv6 to our management?”.

In the following I will shortly lay out the line of reasoning and the terminology we usually employ for the task. Furthermore I’ve anonymized a presentation which we recently prepared as “input” for the network team of an enterprise organization; it can be found here. In case you want to get this as a PPT (for recyling purposes) pls send me a direct email (in exchange, we might ask you for a small donation of your will to the Troopers charity project… ).

m0n0wall as an IPv6 firewall

This is a guest post from Antonios Atlasis

Last October I had a quick look at pfSense 2.1 regarding the IPv6 support that it offers. It was the first stable support of pfSense that offered the capability for IPv6 network connectivity (a few comments about it can be found here). However, I knew that m0n0wall supported IPv6 quite a long time ago and that their developers had incorporated the support of IPv6 features which are not available in pfSense yet, so today I decided to have a look at it too.
