Defending against Windows RDP attacks - Help Net Security


Defending against Windows RDP attacks
In 2020, attacks against Windows Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) grew by 768%, according to ESET. But this shouldn’t come as a surprise, given the massive increase in people working remotely during the pandemic.
With enterprises resorting to making RDP services publicly available, hackers have taken notice. Some DDoS attacks are leveraging RDP servers to amplify their effect, and malware like Trickbot is employing scanners to identify vulnerable open RDP ports.
When it comes to remote access, RDP is functionally rich and very useful. It’s not inherently dangerous, but given its complexity, ubiquity, and position within the operating system, RDP has a large attack surface. If publicly exposed, vulnerabilities that emerge may be exploitable by hackers to cause serious damage to an enterprise. ....

Plex Media servers actively abused to amplify DDoS attacks


Plex Media servers actively abused to amplify DDoS attacks

Plex Media Server systems are actively being abused by DDoS-for-hire services as a UDP reflection/amplification vector in Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
Plex Media Server provides users with a streaming system compatible with the Windows, macOS, Linux, and FreeBSD platforms, as well as network-attached storage (NAS) devices, Docker containers, and more.
Netscout says that amplified PMSSDP DDoS attacks observed since November 2020 have been abusing UDP/32414 SSDP HTTP/U responses from exposed broadband Internet access routers and redirected towards attackers targets.
This junk traffic reflected onto victims servers is sourced from Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP) probes sent by Plex through the G’Day Mate (GDM) protocol for local network service discovery. ....

Windows RDP servers are being abused to amplify DDoS attacks


Windows RDP servers are being abused to amplify DDoS attacks
Windows RDP servers running on UDP port 3389 can be ensnared in DDoS botnets and abused to bounce and amplify junk traffic towards victim networks.

| Topic: Security
Cybercrime gangs are abusing Windows Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) systems to bounce and amplify junk traffic as part of DDoS attacks, security firm Netscout said in an alert on Tuesday.
Not all RDP servers can be abused, but only systems where RDP authentication is also enabled on UDP port 3389 on top of the standard TCP port 3389.
Netscout said that attackers can send malformed UDP packets to the UDP ports of RDP servers that will be reflected to the target of a DDoS attack, amplified in size, resulting in junk traffic hitting the target s system. ....

Remote Desktop Bugs: Patches That Took Priority in ...


Just the sheer number of CVEs getting patched, especially from March to about September – we kept seeing 100 CVEs each month, Narang says. Me and the team, we kept getting blown away by the sheer volume of them.
As security teams learned this year, many vulnerabilities Microsoft found and patched affected Windows Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) Microsoft s protocol for enabling users to access Windows workstations or servers Remote Desktop Client, Remote Desktop Services, and Remote Desktop Gateway. While these all warranted priority patching before 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent shift to work-from-home made them appealing targets. 
Because we are a remote workforce, anything that s going to impact the tools we need I think is going to be ripe for attack, says Dustin Childs of Trend Micro s Zero Day Initiative. The two fertile areas for attacks are the tools remote workers use and the infrastructure that supports it.     ....
