VOGH Exclusive: URL Redirection Vulnerability Found In Facebook [The Vulnerability Still Active & Not Been Patched]
Facebook -the world's largest social networking site with registered users of more than one billion, is considered among one of the safest site of the cyber space. To maintain such reputation Facebook Inc has done all the required steps, that one could possibly take. Like other high profile and very popular websites, Facebook also stand as one of the hot target of almost every cyber criminals of the world. To get rid of this and make FB safe and secure, the company have introduced what it called 'Bug Bounty' offer; where you can submit vulnerabilities to FB and get rewarded. We have seen many security researchers and hackers across the globe has done this and get their award. But not every time, and today I will talk about that- few days ago a reader of VOGH, who also goes by the nick name of 'Dr41DeY' has figured out a URL redirection vulnerability in Facebook. One of the link in Facebook App which is apps.facebook.com is posing URL redirection vulnerability. The hacker has demonstrated how any one can use  the vulnerability  in order to manipulate millions of innocent Facebook users. Let see  

Before publishing this, one of our VOGH representative have talked with Facebook Security regarding this security vulnerability, but due to some reason FB might overlooked this issue. Finally after waiting for almost a week, we the Team VOGH decided to bring this in-front of our reader. Let briefly go through with the vulnerable link-

Replace voiceofgreyhat.com with any of your favorite site, and the the said vulnerability will allow you to get redirected to that very website you want to from Facebook. This loophole is still active, and any one can test that with the above url, we thought the impact of this loophole is very serious, as any malicious attacker can misuse the trust-hod of Facebook's url in order to harm regular internet users, while redirecting them to any junk or malfunctional websites.

Disclaimer:- Earlier I told that the issue has already brought into the notice of Facebook Security, but they overlooked the whole issue, so being a responsible cyber media, we VOGH are disclosing this to people. If any one misuse this vulnerability, then Voiceofgreyhat will not at all be responsible for any kind of mishap.

Update:- May be doing more that what we call late repent, but finally the above disclosed vulnerability has been patched by Facebook security team.

Skype Shop & National Geographic Germany (Nat Geo) Vulnerable to XSS

Posted by Avik Sarkar On 12/26/2013 09:06:00 pm

Skype Shop & National Geographic Germany (Nat Geo) Vulnerable to XSS -Said Dr41DeY
Couple of weeks ago, I have talked about the vulnerability of Cartoon Network official website, today I am going to speak about two more big fish who are posing serious security holes in their official websites. Lets not waste time while stretching the preface and come directly to the story -it's the hacker who has recently made his name for some big hacks, has back again. 
Many of you are right, I am talking about 'Dr41DeY' because he is the guy who found vulnerability in the official website of Skype Shop and National Geographic Channel Germany (Nat Geo). Both Nat Geo and Skype have non persistent cross site scripting vulnerability also known as XSS vulnerability in their website. We have already informed this issue to concerning authority and webmaster to avoid misfortune. As expected, while writing this Skype have taken this issue seriously and fixed their loopholes immediately. Still for proof- above I have shared the screenshots with our readers, as evidence of the XSS hole. But unlike Skype Shop, Nat Geo yet not responded, so the vulnerability still exist on their portal. Hopefully they will take appropriate steps with out doing more delay. For updates in this story and also other hot cyber issues, just stay tuned with VOGH.  Before concluding, I would like to remind you that- in 2012 an Indian hacker named Akshay has found XSS holes in the official website of National Geographic. Again after a year, Dr41DeY found another Nat GEO site vulnerable to XSS, that definitely arises a doubt about the security concern of one of the world's leading satellite television channel featuring documentaries with factual content involving nature, science, culture, and history, plus some reality and pseudo-scientific entertainment programming.

Posted by Avik Sarkar On 12/10/2013 02:26:00 am

XSS Vulnerability Found in Cartoon Network's (CN) Official Website By Dr41DeY 
After the successful breach of 'DY365 TV' yet again the hacker going by the name of Dr41DeY from Nigerian Cyber Army targeted another TV network. Guess what, this time he caught even a bigger fish. Unlike defacement or breach this time the hacker did something what it called ethical or can be categorized in white-hat list. Okey now without pulling the intro more longer lets directly come to the story -and that is the official website of Cartoon Network is vulnerable of cross site scripting attack also known as XSS attack. Cartoon Network mostly known as CN is the worlds leader in broadcasting  animated programming, ranging from action to animated comedy & many more. This satellite channel is the most preferred channel for the children and teenagers between the ages of 7 to 5 among the whole of the world. So it is quit indisputable that the official website of Cartoon Network (CN) is indeed a valuable website which have large number of traffic everyday. But it is unclear that being such a big and popular brand name, why CN committed such a massacre while leaving XSS vulnerability in their official portal. Dr41DeY shared with VOGH, that the search box in the home page of CN poses non persistent XSS vulnerability. The above screen shots was taken as a proof of the story. I on behalf of Team VOGH has already contacted CN authorities, and knocked them about this issue. Hopefully they will take appropriate steps with out doing any further delay. For updates in this story and also other hot cyber issues, just stay tuned with VOGH.
