WebCopilot: Open-source automation tool enumerates subdomains, detects bugsWebCopilot is an open-source automation tool that enumerates a target's subdomains and discovers bugs using various free tools. NIST's NVD has encountered a problemWhether the cause is insurmountable technical debt, lack of funds, a third reason or all of them, NIST's National Vulnerability Database is struggling, and it's affecting vulnerability management efforts.

Apple is having its own Meltdown/Spectre moment with a new side-channel vulnerability found in the architecture of Apple Silicon processors that gives malicious apps the ability to extract cryptographic keys. "We reverse-engineered DMPs on Apple m-series CPUs and found that the DMP activates data loaded from memory that 'looks like' a pointer," the team say in the paper.

Ivanti has fixed a critical RCE vulnerability in Ivanti Standalone Sentry that has been reported by researchers with the NATO Cyber Security Centre. The vulnerability affects all supported version of Ivanti Standalone Sentry as well as older, unsupported ones.

The Cyber Crime Center of the U.S. Department of Defense says it has reached the milestone of processing its 50,000th vulnerability report submitted by 5,635 researchers since its inception in November 2016. The federal agency launched its Vulnerability Disclosure Program 7.5 years ago following a bug bounty event called 'Hack-the-Pentagon,' to engage crowd-sourced vulnerability reports that could help bolster its cyber defenses.

A recently fixed SQL injection vulnerability in Fortinet's FortiClient Endpoint Management Server solution has apparently piqued the interest of many: Horizon3's Attack Team means to publish technical details and a proof-of-concept exploit for it next week, and someone is attempting to sell a PoC for less than $300 via GitHub. "An improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL Command vulnerability [CWE-89] in FortiClientEMS may allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute unauthorized code or commands via specifically crafted requests," the company's product security incident response team pithily states in the associated advisory.
