Today’s cybersecurity is good, with most prevention solutions having a 99.9% or higher detection rate for common malware, but once penetrated, identification is usually a case of too little, too late. The mean time to identify (MTTI) a data breach was 201 days, and a mean time to contain (MTTC) was 70 days. In up to 70% of cases, data breaches were detected by third parties.

New Clues Surface on Shamoon 2’s Destructive Behavior
Researchers report new connections between Magic Hound and Shamoon 2, along with descriptions of how the Disttrack malware component of campaigns moves laterally within infected networks.
CVE-2017-7275
The ReadPCXImage function in coders/pcx.c in ImageMagick 7.0.4.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (attempted large memory allocation and application crash) via a crafted file. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-8862 and CVE-2016-8866.
CVE-2016-9252
The Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) in F5 BIG-IP before 11.5.4 HF3, 11.6.x before 11.6.1 HF2 and 12.x before 12.1.2 does not properly handle minimum path MTU options for IPv6, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) through unspecified vectors.
CVE-2017-7191
The netjoin processing in Irssi 1.x before 1.0.2 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
CVE-2015-8762
The EAP-PWD module in FreeRADIUS 3.0 through 3.0.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and server crash) via a zero-length EAP-PWD packet.
CVE-2015-8763
The EAP-PWD module in FreeRADIUS 3.0 through 3.0.8 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted (1) commit or (2) confirm message, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
CVE-2016-10225
The sunxi-debug driver in Allwinner 3.4 legacy kernel for H3, A83T and H8 devices allows local users to gain root privileges by sending “rootmydevice” to /proc/sunxi_debug/sunxi_debug.
CVE-2017-6460
Stack-based buffer overflow in the reslist function in ntpq in NTP before 4.2.8p10 and 4.3.x before 4.3.94 allows remote servers have unspecified impact via a long flagstr variable in a restriction list response.
CVE-2017-6462
Buffer overflow in the legacy Datum Programmable Time Server (DPTS) refclock driver in NTP before 4.2.8p10 and 4.3.x before 4.3.94 allows local users to have unspecified impact via a crafted /dev/datum device.
