Remember I said, "Never low-bid sushi!" Well apparently people are low-bidding IR work. Neither is going to have a good outcome.

HEY, I'M HIRING. Do you have way too much infosec experience and get lost talking about the swath of it to anyone who will listen? Have you built workshops and/or given instructional talks and would love to finally get paid for it? COME WORK WITH ME jobs.lever.co/grimm-co/8431a…

Exploiting #CVE-2021-4034 (polkit pkexec) is *really* straightforward. While this is "only" local privilege exploitation, it should still be patched ASAP. Here's a working exploit on a fully patched Ubuntu 20.04 installation (before the polkit patch):

You can also map that socket file descriptor to an actual connection/socket by running (as root): netstat -eepan | grep 2898922 // @hal_pomeranz
Let's investigate a suspicious Linux process to see what files it has open. Malicious processes often have open files that can lead you onto them. Commands: cd /proc/<PID>/fd ls -al #DFIR

If you don’t care for Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman you should probably not come near my office for a while…

RIP Meat Loaf. I was lucky enough to chat with him once about singing, and we ended up talking about the thing he wouldn’t do for love and him losing a bet over whether or not people would get it.

If people tell you you can’t, they’re probably trying to sell you something or overly worried about their own job security. Period. There are all kinds of people in hacking and cybersecurity and nobody should put you, your education, or your upbringing into a box. We need you.
