    We are making some changes to Windows that will impact users of the Cortana app. Starting in late 2023, we will no longer support Cortana in Windows as a standalone app. However, you can still access powerful productivity features in Windows and Edge, which have increased AI capabilities. This means you can still get help with your tasks, calendar, and email, but in new and exciting ways. This change only impacts Cortana in Windows, and your productivity assistant, Cortana, will continue to be available in Outlook mobile, Teams mobile, Microsoft Teams display, and Microsoft Teams rooms.
    We know that this change may affect some of the ways you work in Windows, so we want to help you transition smoothly to the new options. Instead of clicking the Cortana icon and launching the app to begin using voice, now you can use voice and satisfy your productivity needs through different tools. Here are some of the resources you can use to learn more about the alternatives:
     Voice access in Windows 11: This is a new feature in Windows 11 that lets you control your PC and write text using your voice. You can use voice commands to open and switch between apps, browse the web, and read and write emails. Voice access works offline and uses advanced speech recognition to understand your speech and help you get things done.
    The new Bing: The new AI-powered Bing lets you ask complex questions and get concise answers from reliable sources on the web. You can type or speak your questions and Bing Chat will give you a succinct answer citing multiple trusted sources. 
    Microsoft 365 Copilot: This is a new feature that uses AI to turn your words into a powerful productivity tool. Copilot uses your Microsoft 365 data—such as your calendar, emails, chats, documents, and meetings—to help you create, edit, share content, and more. Copilot adheres to Microsoft’s AI principles and Responsible AI Standards to ensure your data is secure and private.
    Windows Copilot: Available in preview for Windows 11 in June, Windows Copilot provides centralized AI assistance. Together, with Bing Chat and first- and third-party plugins, you can focus on bringing your ideas to life, completing complex projects, and collaborating instead of spending energy finding, launching, and working across multiple applications.
    We are excited to keep innovating and using AI to help you work smarter and faster. We hope you enjoy the new ways to use AI to save time and focus on what matters most to you.

    Bye bye Cortana , you will not be missed.

    Russia says US hacked thousands of iPhones in iOS zero-click attacks
    Authors
    Igor Kuznetsov Valentin Pashkov Leonid Bezvershenko Georgy Kucherin While monitoring the network traffic of our own corporate Wi-Fi network dedicated for mobile devices using the Kaspersky Unified Monitoring and Analysis Platform (KUMA), we noticed suspicious activity that originated from several iOS-based phones. Since it is impossible to inspect modern iOS devices from the inside, we created offline backups of the devices in question, inspected them using the Mobile Verification Toolkit’s mvt-ios and discovered traces of compromise.
    We are calling this campaign “Operation Triangulation”, and all the related information we have on it will be collected on the Operation Triangulation page. If you have any additional details to share, please contact us: triangulation[at]kaspersky.com.
    What we know so far
    Mobile device backups contain a partial copy of the filesystem, including some of the user data and service databases. The timestamps of the files, folders and the database records allow to roughly reconstruct the events happening to the device. The mvt-ios utility produces a sorted timeline of events into a file called “timeline.csv”, similar to a super-timeline used by conventional digital forensic tools.
    Using this timeline, we were able to identify specific artifacts that indicate the compromise. This allowed to move the research forward, and to reconstruct the general infection sequence:
    The target iOS device receives a message via the iMessage service, with an attachment containing an exploit. Without any user interaction, the message triggers a vulnerability that leads to code execution. The code within the exploit downloads several subsequent stages from the C&C server, that include additional exploits for privilege escalation. After successful exploitation, a final payload is downloaded from the C&C server, that is a fully-featured APT platform. The initial message and the exploit in the attachment is deleted The malicious toolset does not support persistence, most likely due to the limitations of the OS. The timelines of multiple devices indicate that they may be reinfected after rebooting. The oldest traces of infection that we discovered happened in 2019. As of the time of writing in June 2023, the attack is ongoing, and the most recent version of the devices successfully targeted is iOS 15.7.
    The analysis of the final payload is not finished yet. The code is run with root privileges, implements a set of commands for collecting system and user information, and can run arbitrary code downloaded as plugin modules from the C&C server.
    Forensic methodology
    It is important to note, that, although the malware includes portions of code dedicated specifically to clear the traces of compromise, it is possible to reliably identify if the device was compromised. Furthermore, if a new device was set up by migrating user data from an older device, the iTunes backup of that device will contain the traces of compromise that happened to both devices, with correct timestamps.
    Preparation
    All potential target devices must be backed up, either using iTunes, or an open-source utility idevicebackup2 (from the package libimobiledevice). The latter is shipped as a pre-built package with the most popular Linux distributions, or can be built from the source code for MacOS/Linux.
    To create a backup with idevicebackup2, run the following command:
    idevicebackup2 backup --full $backup_directory
    You may need to enter the security code of the device several times, and the process may take several hours, depending on the amount of user data stored in it.
    Install MVT
    Once the backup is ready, it has to be processed by the Mobile Verification Toolkit. If Python 3 is installed in the system, run the following command:
    pip install mvt
    A more comprehensive installation manual is available the MVT homepage.
    Optional: decrypt the backup
    If the owner of the device has set up encryption for the backup previously, the backup copy will be encrypted. In that case, the backup copy has to be decrypted before running the checks:
    mvt-ios decrypt-backup -d $decrypted_backup_directory $backup_directory
    Parse the backup using MVT
    mvt-ios check-backup -o $mvt_output_directory $decrypted_backup_directory
    This command will run all the checks by MVT, and the output directory will contain several JSON and CSV files. For the methodology described in this blogpost, you will need the file called timeline.csv.
    Check timeline.csv for indicators
    The single most reliable indicator that we discovered is the presence of data usage lines mentioning the process named “BackupAgent”. This is a deprecated binary that should not appear in the timeline during regular usage of the device. However, it is important to note that there is also a binary named “BackupAgent2”, and that is not an indicator of compromise. In many cases, BackupAgent is preceded by the process “IMTransferAgent”, that downloads the attachment that happens to be an exploit, and this leads to modification of the timestamps of multiple directories in the “Library/SMS/Attachments”. The attachment is then deleted, leaving only modified directories, without actual files inside them:  
    Network activity during exploitation
    On the network level, a successful exploitation attempt can be identified by a sequence of several HTTPS connection events. These can be discovered in netflow data enriched with DNS/TLS host information, or PCAP dumps:
    Legitimate network interaction with the iMessage service, usually using the domain names *.ess.apple.com Download of the iMessage attachment, using the domain names .icloud-content.com, content.icloud.com Multiple connections to the C&C domains, usually 2 different domains (the list of known domains follows). Typical netflow data for the C&C sessions will show network sessions with significant amount of outgoing traffic. Network exploitation sequence, Wireshark dump
    The iMessage attachment is encrypted and downloaded over HTTPS, the only implicit indicator that can be used is the amount of downloaded data that is about 242 Kb.
    Encrypted iMessage attachment, Wireshark dump
    C&C domains
    Using the forensic artifacts, it was possible to identify the set of domain name used by the exploits and further malicious stages. They can be used to check the DNS logs for historical information, and to identify the devices currently running the malware:

    Help Us Gear Up for Launch During the Diablo IV Server Slam
      Calling all wanderers! In preparation for the launch of Diablo IV on June 6, we must enlist your demon-cleansing services for one final task: Server Slam.
    From May 12, 12 p.m.–May 14, 12 p.m. PDT, everyone can come to Sanctuary’s defense on Windows PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4—along with couch co-op for consoles and cross-play and cross-progression for all platforms—against the armies of the Burning Hells to help us test the durability of our servers.

    What to Expect During Server Slam

    Server Slam will give players one final weekend in Hell to experience a fraction of what Diablo IV has to offer, while simultaneously testing the capabilities of our servers prior to launch. The Prologue and entirety of Act I will be your canvas to paint with the remains of slain demons. Fractured Peaks, the first Zone, is yours to navigate as you please. Traverse its rugged landscape as Barbarian, Druid, Necromancer, Rogue, or Sorcerer, unleashing devastating power upon foes, and honing your unique skillset in the process.
    For those who played during our Early Access and Open Beta weekends, these details may seem familiar—however, there are a few nuances we’re ushering in with Server Slam.
    Any character progress made during the Early Access and Open Beta weekends will not carry over to Server Slam. Additionally, any character progress made during Server Slam will not carry over to launch. Players may level up their characters to Level 20, after which you will cease to gain Ability Points, but can continue to slay demons and earn alluring gear. The Legendary Item drop rate has been altered to reflect the drop rate that will be present in the launch version of Diablo IV. The version of Diablo IV available during Server Slam will include all the bug fixes and updates detailed in our Open Beta Retrospective blog. Fractured Peaks is not only teeming with danger for you to vanquish, but a variety of activities to Level up your character with. Visit Kyovashad to repair and purchase new gear, upgrade your healing potion, access the Stash, and much more. There’s also both Main and Side Quests to experience Sanctuary’s rich story, World and Legion Events to exercise your martial prowess, and Dungeons to amass gear from.
    Overcome Server Slam’s Biggest Challenge: Ashava

    Steel yourself before one of the Burning Hells’ most fowl machinations, Ashava. She’s a lumbering behemoth with two razor-sharp arm blades, scales stronger than plate mail, and hell-bent on ripping through all who interrupt her quest to bathe Sanctuary in poisonous bile.
    Because your characters can't surpass Level 20 during Server Slam, felling her will be quite the monumental task.
    Here’s when you’ll have an opportunity to combat Ashava during Server Slam:
    May 13 starting at 9 a.m. PDT and every 3 hours thereafter until the final spawn on May 14 at 9 a.m. PDT. Back to Top
    Earn Server Slam Rewards as You Play

    Felling the pestilence spewing Ashava comes with a new earnable reward, the Cry of Ashava Mount Trophy.
    Cry of Ashava Mount Trophy: earned by defeating Ashava with one Level 20 character. We’ve also reanimated rewards from our Early Access and Open Beta weekends, giving players another chance at earning these tokens of valor by spilling demon blood. Players who unlock these rewards will receive them once Diablo IV launches. If you previously earned these rewards from the Early Access and Open Beta weekends, you WILL NOT need to earn them again.
    Initial Casualty Title: earned by reaching Kyovashad with one character. Early Voyager Title: earned by reaching Level 20 on one character. Beta Wolf Pack Cosmetic Item: earned by reaching Level 20 on one character. Back to Top
    How to Download Server Slam
    There’s no need to wait until May 12 to begin your download of Server Slam! Early Download for this experience starts on May 10 at 12 p.m. PDT. See the directions below on how to download Server Slam for your platform of choice.
    If you do not have the Diablo IV Open Beta downloaded:
    PC
    Launch the Battle.net client. If Diablo IV is not already in your Favorites bar, you can add it by clicking on the + icon. Alternatively, you can find Diablo IV by accessing the All Games page. You’ll see Diablo IV at the top of the list. Once you get to the Diablo IV Game Page, click the dropdown menu under Game Version and select the Diablo IV – Server Slam option. Click the blue button that says Install. The game will begin to install, and once it’s available, click Play to Launch. Xbox
    Launch the Xbox Store and search for Diablo IV–Server Slam. Select Download. PlayStation
    Launch the PlayStation Store and search for Diablo IV–Server Slam. Select Download. For those that still have the Diablo IV Open Beta downloaded:
    Once the Early Download period begins, an update will be available for you to download. After Server Slam starts, you can begin your journey into Sanctuary. Note: An Xbox Live Gold or PlayStation Plus subscription will not be required to play Diablo IV during Server Slam in most regions. In Germany, a PlayStation Plus subscription will be required due to rating requirements. Once Diablo IV launches, an Xbox Live Gold or PlayStation Plus subscription will be required to access some of the game’s multiplayer features.

    Windows Server 2022 servicing stack update - 20348.1663
    This update makes quality improvements to the servicing stack, which is the component that installs Windows updates. Servicing stack updates (SSU) ensure that you have a robust and reliable servicing stack so that your devices can receive and install Microsoft updates.
    Known issues in this update
    Symptom
    Workaround
    Updates released February 14, 2023 or later might not be offered from some Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) servers to Windows 11, version 22H2. The updates will download to the WSUS server but might not propagate further to client devices. Affected WSUS servers are only those running Windows Server 2022 which have been upgraded from Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019. This issue is caused by the accidental removal of required Unified Update Platform (UUP) MIME types during the upgrade to Windows Server 2022 from a previous version of Windows Server. This issue might affect security updates or feature updates for Windows 11, version 22H2. Microsoft Configuration Manager is not affected by this issue.
     
    To mitigate this issue, please see Adding file types for Unified Update Platform on premises.
    We are working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.
     
    After installing this update on guest virtual machines (VMs) running Windows Server 2022 on some versions of VMware ESXi, Windows Server 2022 might not start up. Only Windows Server 2022 VMs with Secure Boot enabled are affected by this issue. Affected versions of VMware ESXi are versions vSphere ESXi 7.0.x and below.
     
    Please see VMware’s documentation to mitigate this issue.
    Microsoft and VMware are investigating this issue and will provide more information when it is available.

    U.S. law enforcement arrested on Wednesday a New York man believed to be Pompompurin, the owner of the BreachForums hacking forum.
    According to court documents, he was charged with one count of conspiracy to solicit individuals to sell unauthorized access devices.
    During the arrest, the defendant allegedly admitted that his real name was Connor Brian Fitzpatrick and that he was Pompourin, the owner of the Breach Forums cybercrime forum.
    "When I arrested the defendant on March 15, 2023, he stated to me in substance and in part that: a) his name was Conor Brian FitzPatrick; b) he used the alias "pompourin," and c) he was the owner and administrator of "BreachForums," the data breach website referenced in the Complaint," FBI Special Agent John Longmire says.
    Fitzpatrick was released on Thursday on a $300,000 bond and will appear in the District Court of the Eastern District of Virginia on March 24, as first reported by Bloomberg.
    Until his appearance in court, the defendant has surrendered his documents and will only be allowed to travel within the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York and the Eastern District of Virginia for court purposes. He is also restricted from contacting witnesses, codefendants, or coconspirators.
     
    While the suspected owner of BreachForums is away, a forum admin said that the site would continue to operate in its current capacity.
    The admin added that they have full access to the site's infrastructure and will continue to operate the forum.
    Who is Pompompurin?
    Pompompurin has been a well-known player in a cybercriminal underground devoted to breaching companies and selling or leaking stolen data through forums and social media. He was also a high-profile member of the RaidForums cybercrime forum.
    After the FBI seized RaidForums in 2022, Pompourin created a new forum named 'BreachForums' to fill the void.
    It has since become the largest data leak forum of its kind, commonly used by hackers and ransomware gangs to leak stolen data.
    Last week, BreachForums was used by a threat actor to attempt to sell the personal data of U.S. politicians that was stolen in a breach on D.C. Health Link, a healthcare provider for U.S. House members, their staff, and their families.
    While BreachForums became a force in cybercrime on its own, Pompompurin has also been involved in various high-profile company breaches.
    These breaches include sending fake cyberattack emails using a flaw in the FBI's Law Enforcement Enterprise Portal (LEEP), stealing customer data from Robinhood, and allegedly using a bug to confirm the email addresses of 5.4 million Twitter users.
