vuln disclosure
Elastic Agent Logs May Contain Sensitive Information Due to Logging of Raw Events on Ingestion FailureCVE-2023-6687
Elastic disclosed that Elastic Agent would log raw events at WARN or ERROR level when ingestion to Elasticsearch failed with certain 4xx HTTP status codes. This could result in sensitive or private information being written to the agent's own logs. The issue is resolved in versions 8.11.3 and 7.17.16 by limiting such logging to DEBUG level, which is disabled by default.

Proof-of-Concept Kernel Driver Spoofs TPM Endorsement Key Reads to Evade Hardware BansTPM-Spoofer
A proof-of-concept kernel driver hooks the Windows TPM stack to randomize public key reads, specifically targeting the Endorsement Key (EK) used by anti-cheat systems for hardware fingerprinting. The technique demonstrates how an attacker can spoof TPM-based hardware identifiers to bypass HWID bans, though the current implementation is easily detectable.
