You are not alone! Recently a Google engineer noticed that their SSH client segfaulted every time they tried to connect to a specific host.

We saw this as a challenge, and after some intense hacking sessions, we were able to craft a full working exploit!<br /> <br /> In the course of our investigation, and to our surprise, we learned that the glibc maintainers had previously been alerted of the issue via their bug tracker in July, 2015. (<a href="https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18665">bug</a>). We couldn't immediately tell whether the bug fix was underway, so we worked hard to make sure we understood the issue and then reached out to the glibc maintainers. To our delight, Florian Weimer and Carlos O’Donell of <a href="https://www.redhat.com/en">Red Hat</a> had also been studying the bug’s impact, albeit completely independently!

The vulnerability relies on an oversized (2048+ bytes) UDP or TCP response, which is followed by another response that will overwrite the stack. Our suggested mitigation is to limit the response (i.e., via DNSMasq or similar programs) sizes accepted by the DNS resolver locally as well as to ensure that DNS queries are sent only to DNS servers which limit the response size for UDP responses with the truncation bit set.<br /> <br /> <b>Technical information:</b><br /> <br /> glibc reserves 2048 bytes in the stack through alloca() for the DNS answer at _nss_dns_gethostbyname4_r() for hosting responses to a DNS query.<br /> <br /> Later on, at send_dg() and send_vc(), if the response is larger than 2048 bytes, a new buffer is allocated from the heap and all the information (buffer pointer, new buffer size and response size) is updated.<br /> <br /> Under certain conditions a mismatch between the stack buffer and the new heap allocation will happen. The final effect is that the stack buffer will be used to store the DNS response, even though the response is larger than the stack buffer and a heap buffer was allocated.

To mark the occasion, we’re rolling out new tools, and some useful reminders, to help protect you from online dangers of all stripes—phishing, malware, and other threats to your personal information.<br /> <br /> <b>1. Keeping security settings simple</b><br /> <br /> The <a href="https://security.google.com/settings/security/secureaccount?utm_source=ogb-blog&utm_medium=blog-pr&utm_campaign=safer-internet-day">Security Checkup</a> is a quick way to control the security settings for your Google Account. You can add a recovery phone number so we can help if you’re ever locked out of your account, strengthen your password settings, see which devices are connected to your account, and more. If you complete the Security Checkup by February 11, you’ll also get <a href="https://googledrive.blogspot.com/2016/02/safer-internet-day-2016.html">2GB of extra Google Drive storage</a>, which can be used across Google Drive, Gmail, and Photos.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgllGwnIZP9Ck95EpDNQJPQIVydgnm95p87da1Vdem67M4244ey8kfdzj_oU3EbRAY16rN041fBV1YPX60qWTLRTFTAZ805HRvUpdu_0oj7D846VGoZgWTFi2ZPAIJnxSol5a1sVrTArWSH/s1600/SID_Blog_001.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgllGwnIZP9Ck95EpDNQJPQIVydgnm95p87da1Vdem67M4244ey8kfdzj_oU3EbRAY16rN041fBV1YPX60qWTLRTFTAZ805HRvUpdu_0oj7D846VGoZgWTFi2ZPAIJnxSol5a1sVrTArWSH/s400/SID_Blog_001.gif" width="400" /></a></div> Safer Internet Day is a great time to do it, but you can—and should!—take a Security Checkup on a regular basis. Start your Security Checkup by visiting <a href="https://myaccount.google.com/">My Account</a>.<br /> <br /> <b>2. Informing Gmail users about potentially unsafe messages</b><br /> <br /> If you and your Grandpa both use Gmail to exchange messages, your connections are <a href="https://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/staying-at-forefront-of-email-security.html">encrypted</a> and <a href="https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2013/12/internet-wide-efforts-to-fight-email.html">authenticated</a>. That means no peering eyes can read those emails as they zoom across the web, and you can be confident that the message from your Grandpa in size 48 font (with no punctuation and a few misspellings) is really from him!<br /> <br /> However, as our <a href="https://www.google.com/transparencyreport/saferemail/">Safer Email Transparency Report</a> explains, these things are not always true when Gmail interacts with other mail services. Today, we’re introducing changes in Gmail on the web to let people know when a received message was not encrypted, if you’re composing a message to a recipient whose email service doesn’t support <a href="https://www.google.com/transparencyreport/saferemail/tls/?hl=en">TLS encryption</a>, or when the sender’s domain couldn’t be authenticated.<br /> <br /> Here’s the notice you’ll see in Gmail before you send a message to a service that doesn’t support TLS encryption. You’ll also see the broken lock icon if you receive a message that was sent without TLS encryption.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgcmQYxojhCyPUlrZDh15r3zH1i8p5In1aItkf-IY92XtZQPMul2Oqwx1qX_f9rpmxOe2RnWEIiGEC2cjTSnHBnCv3qBu3n4qO_k_gVXFnolRwXUKlYn7gLfsVsHMg5-AKZ9-Lw5r8DPqo/s1600/notice+one.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgcmQYxojhCyPUlrZDh15r3zH1i8p5In1aItkf-IY92XtZQPMul2Oqwx1qX_f9rpmxOe2RnWEIiGEC2cjTSnHBnCv3qBu3n4qO_k_gVXFnolRwXUKlYn7gLfsVsHMg5-AKZ9-Lw5r8DPqo/s400/notice+one.gif" width="400" /></a></div> If you receive a message that can’t be authenticated, you’ll see a question mark where you might otherwise see a profile photo or logo:<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkvi-mwLfUFVhvCBUlqNMyfa9W2J2PYbY216vNSCBCTd6-lo2sa5lOoVO1polA-Xb-Ac61qrWYPmc-mGfLM0lMUoCd1SODb3wL5NhzIhR2U3c6p-dMwsTRtDRxokIcRhPSkN3YfQusRRXA/s1600/notice+2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkvi-mwLfUFVhvCBUlqNMyfa9W2J2PYbY216vNSCBCTd6-lo2sa5lOoVO1polA-Xb-Ac61qrWYPmc-mGfLM0lMUoCd1SODb3wL5NhzIhR2U3c6p-dMwsTRtDRxokIcRhPSkN3YfQusRRXA/s400/notice+2.png" width="400" /></a></div> <br /> <b>3. Protecting you from bad apps</b><br /> <br /> Dangerous apps that phish and steal your personal information, or hold your phone hostage and make you pay to unlock it, have no place on your smartphone—or any device, for that matter.<br /> <br /> Google Play helps protect your Android device by rejecting bad apps that don’t comply with our <a href="https://www.android.com/us/developer-content-policy.html#showlanguages">Play policies</a>. It also conducts more than 200 million daily security scans of devices, in tandem with our <a href="https://www.google.com/transparencyreport/safebrowsing/">Safe Browsing</a> system, for any signs of trouble. Last year, bad apps were installed on fewer than 0.13% of Android devices that install apps only from Google Play.<br /> <br /> Learn more about these, and other Android security features — like app sandboxing, <a href="https://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2015/08/an-update-to-nexus-devices.html">monthly security updates</a> for Nexus and other devices, and our <a href="https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2015/06/announcing-security-rewards-for-android.html">Security Rewards Program</a>—in new research we’ve made public on our <a href="https://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2016/02/safety-first-four-easy-android-security.html">Android blog</a>.<br /> <br /> <b>4. Busting bad advertising practices</b><br /> <br /> Malicious advertising “botnets” try to send phony visitors to websites to make money from online ads. Botnets threaten the businesses of honest advertisers and publishers, and because they’re often made up of devices infected with malware, they put users in harm’s way too.<br /> <br /> We've worked to keep botnets out of our ads systems, cutting them out of advertising revenue, and making it harder to make money from distributing malware and <a href="https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2015/12/year-one-progress-in-fight-against.html">Unwanted Software</a>. Now, as part of our effort to <a href="https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/better-ads-report.html">fight bad ads online</a>, we’re reinforcing our existing botnet defenses by automatically filtering traffic from three of the top ad fraud botnets, comprising more than 500,000 infected user machines. Learn more about this update on the <a href="https://doubleclickadvertisers.blogspot.com/2016/02/booting-bots-new-botnet-protections.html">Doubleclick blog</a>.<br /> <br /> <b>5. Moving the security conversation forward</b><br /> <br /> Recent events—<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Snowden#Global_surveillance_disclosures">Edward Snowden’s disclosures</a>, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Pictures_Entertainment_hack">Sony Hack</a>, the <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2015/12/08/you-already-use-encryption-heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-it/">current conversation around encryption</a>, and more—have made online safety a truly mainstream issue. This is reflected both in news headlines, and popular culture: “<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Robot_(TV_series)">Mr. Robot</a>,” a TV series about hacking and cybersecurity, just won a Golden Globe for Best Drama, and <a href="https://twitter.com/SwiftOnSecurity">@SwiftOnSecurity</a>, a popular security commentator, is named after Taylor Swift.<br /> <br /> But despite this shift, security remains a complex topic that lends itself to lively debates between experts...that are often unintelligible to just about everyone else. We need to simplify the way we talk about online security to enable everyone to understand its importance and participate in this conversation.<br /> <br /> To that end, we’re teaming up with <a href="https://medium.com/">Medium</a> to host a virtual roundtable about online security, present and future. Moderated by journalist and security researcher <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Poulsen">Kevin Poulsen</a>, this project aims to present fresh perspectives about online security in a time when our attention is increasingly ruled by the devices we carry with us constantly.

We hope you’ll take a few minutes today to learn how Google protects your data and how we can work toward a safer web, for everyone. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Gerhard Eschelbeck, VP, Security and Privacy</span><br /> <br /> <i>[Cross-posted from the <a href="https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2016/02/building-safer-web-for-everyone.html">Official Google Blog</a>]</i><br /> <br /> Today is <a href="https://www.saferinternetday.org/web/usa/sid">Safer Internet Day</a>, a moment for technology companies, nonprofit organizations, security firms, and people around the world to focus on online safety, together. To mark the occasion, we’re rolling out new tools, and some useful reminders, to help protect you from online dangers of all stripes—phishing, malware, and other threats to your personal information.<br /> <br /> <b>1. Keeping security settings simple</b><br /> <br /> The <a href="https://security.google.com/settings/security/secureaccount?utm_source=ogb-blog&utm_medium=blog-pr&utm_campaign=safer-internet-day">Security Checkup</a> is a quick way to control the security settings for your Google Account. You can add a recovery phone number so we can help if you’re ever locked out of your account, strengthen your password settings, see which devices are connected to your account, and more. If you complete the Security Checkup by February 11, you’ll also get <a href="https://googledrive.blogspot.com/2016/02/safer-internet-day-2016.html">2GB of extra Google Drive storage</a>, which can be used across Google Drive, Gmail, and Photos.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgllGwnIZP9Ck95EpDNQJPQIVydgnm95p87da1Vdem67M4244ey8kfdzj_oU3EbRAY16rN041fBV1YPX60qWTLRTFTAZ805HRvUpdu_0oj7D846VGoZgWTFi2ZPAIJnxSol5a1sVrTArWSH/s1600/SID_Blog_001.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgllGwnIZP9Ck95EpDNQJPQIVydgnm95p87da1Vdem67M4244ey8kfdzj_oU3EbRAY16rN041fBV1YPX60qWTLRTFTAZ805HRvUpdu_0oj7D846VGoZgWTFi2ZPAIJnxSol5a1sVrTArWSH/s400/SID_Blog_001.gif" width="400" /></a></div> Safer Internet Day is a great time to do it, but you can—and should!—take a Security Checkup on a regular basis. Start your Security Checkup by visiting <a href="https://myaccount.google.com/">My Account</a>.<br /> <br /> <b>2. Informing Gmail users about potentially unsafe messages</b><br /> <br /> If you and your Grandpa both use Gmail to exchange messages, your connections are <a href="https://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/staying-at-forefront-of-email-security.html">encrypted</a> and <a href="https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2013/12/internet-wide-efforts-to-fight-email.html">authenticated</a>. That means no peering eyes can read those emails as they zoom across the web, and you can be confident that the message from your Grandpa in size 48 font (with no punctuation and a few misspellings) is really from him!<br /> <br /> However, as our <a href="https://www.google.com/transparencyreport/saferemail/">Safer Email Transparency Report</a> explains, these things are not always true when Gmail interacts with other mail services. Today, we’re introducing changes in Gmail on the web to let people know when a received message was not encrypted, if you’re composing a message to a recipient whose email service doesn’t support <a href="https://www.google.com/transparencyreport/saferemail/tls/?hl=en">TLS encryption</a>, or when the sender’s domain couldn’t be authenticated.<br /> <br /> Here’s the notice you’ll see in Gmail before you send a message to a service that doesn’t support TLS encryption. You’ll also see the broken lock icon if you receive a message that was sent without TLS encryption.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgcmQYxojhCyPUlrZDh15r3zH1i8p5In1aItkf-IY92XtZQPMul2Oqwx1qX_f9rpmxOe2RnWEIiGEC2cjTSnHBnCv3qBu3n4qO_k_gVXFnolRwXUKlYn7gLfsVsHMg5-AKZ9-Lw5r8DPqo/s1600/notice+one.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgcmQYxojhCyPUlrZDh15r3zH1i8p5In1aItkf-IY92XtZQPMul2Oqwx1qX_f9rpmxOe2RnWEIiGEC2cjTSnHBnCv3qBu3n4qO_k_gVXFnolRwXUKlYn7gLfsVsHMg5-AKZ9-Lw5r8DPqo/s400/notice+one.gif" width="400" /></a></div> If you receive a message that can’t be authenticated, you’ll see a question mark where you might otherwise see a profile photo or logo:<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkvi-mwLfUFVhvCBUlqNMyfa9W2J2PYbY216vNSCBCTd6-lo2sa5lOoVO1polA-Xb-Ac61qrWYPmc-mGfLM0lMUoCd1SODb3wL5NhzIhR2U3c6p-dMwsTRtDRxokIcRhPSkN3YfQusRRXA/s1600/notice+2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkvi-mwLfUFVhvCBUlqNMyfa9W2J2PYbY216vNSCBCTd6-lo2sa5lOoVO1polA-Xb-Ac61qrWYPmc-mGfLM0lMUoCd1SODb3wL5NhzIhR2U3c6p-dMwsTRtDRxokIcRhPSkN3YfQusRRXA/s400/notice+2.png" width="400" /></a></div> <br /> <b>3. Protecting you from bad apps</b><br /> <br /> Dangerous apps that phish and steal your personal information, or hold your phone hostage and make you pay to unlock it, have no place on your smartphone—or any device, for that matter.<br /> <br /> Google Play helps protect your Android device by rejecting bad apps that don’t comply with our <a href="https://www.android.com/us/developer-content-policy.html#showlanguages">Play policies</a>. It also conducts more than 200 million daily security scans of devices, in tandem with our <a href="https://www.google.com/transparencyreport/safebrowsing/">Safe Browsing</a> system, for any signs of trouble. Last year, bad apps were installed on fewer than 0.13% of Android devices that install apps only from Google Play.<br /> <br /> Learn more about these, and other Android security features — like app sandboxing, <a href="https://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2015/08/an-update-to-nexus-devices.html">monthly security updates</a> for Nexus and other devices, and our <a href="https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2015/06/announcing-security-rewards-for-android.html">Security Rewards Program</a>—in new research we’ve made public on our <a href="https://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2016/02/safety-first-four-easy-android-security.html">Android blog</a>.<br /> <br /> <b>4. Busting bad advertising practices</b><br /> <br /> Malicious advertising “botnets” try to send phony visitors to websites to make money from online ads. Botnets threaten the businesses of honest advertisers and publishers, and because they’re often made up of devices infected with malware, they put users in harm’s way too.<br /> <br /> We've worked to keep botnets out of our ads systems, cutting them out of advertising revenue, and making it harder to make money from distributing malware and <a href="https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2015/12/year-one-progress-in-fight-against.html">Unwanted Software</a>. Now, as part of our effort to <a href="https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/better-ads-report.html">fight bad ads online</a>, we’re reinforcing our existing botnet defenses by automatically filtering traffic from three of the top ad fraud botnets, comprising more than 500,000 infected user machines.

Moving the security conversation forward</b><br /> <br /> Recent events—<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Snowden#Global_surveillance_disclosures">Edward Snowden’s disclosures</a>, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Pictures_Entertainment_hack">Sony Hack</a>, the <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2015/12/08/you-already-use-encryption-heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-it/">current conversation around encryption</a>, and more—have made online safety a truly mainstream issue. This is reflected both in news headlines, and popular culture: “<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Robot_(TV_series)">Mr. Robot</a>,” a TV series about hacking and cybersecurity, just won a Golden Globe for Best Drama, and <a href="https://twitter.com/SwiftOnSecurity">@SwiftOnSecurity</a>, a popular security commentator, is named after Taylor Swift.<br /> <br /> But despite this shift, security remains a complex topic that lends itself to lively debates between experts...that are often unintelligible to just about everyone else. We need to simplify the way we talk about online security to enable everyone to understand its importance and participate in this conversation.<br /> <br /> To that end, we’re teaming up with <a href="https://medium.com/">Medium</a> to host a virtual roundtable about online security, present and future. Moderated by journalist and security researcher <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Poulsen">Kevin Poulsen</a>, this project aims to present fresh perspectives about online security in a time when our attention is increasingly ruled by the devices we carry with us constantly. We hope you’ll <a href="https://me.dm/roundtable">tune in</a> and check it out.<br /> <br /> Online security and safety are being discussed more often, and with more urgency, than ever before. We hope you’ll take a few minutes today to learn how Google protects your data and how we can work toward a safer web, for everyone. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Google Online Security Blog:Building a safer web, for everyone&url=https://security.googleblog.com/2016/02/building-safer-web-for-everyone.html&via=google'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://security.googleblog.com/2016/02/building-safer-web-for-everyone.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='0' data-onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;' data-post-url='https://security.googleblog.com/2016/02/building-safer-web-for-everyone.html' data-url='https://security.googleblog.com/2016/02/building-safer-web-for-everyone.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://security.googleblog.com/2016/02/building-safer-web-for-everyone.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='9175892654943134509' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://security.googleblog.com/2016/02/no-more-deceptive-download-buttons.html' itemprop='url' title='No More Deceptive Download Buttons'> No More Deceptive Download Buttons </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> February 3, 2016 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Lucas Ballard, Safe Browsing Team</span><br /> <br /> In <a href="https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2015/11/safe-browsing-protection-from-even-more.html">November</a>, we announced that Safe Browsing would protect you from social engineering attacks - deceptive tactics that try to trick you into doing something dangerous, like installing <a href="https://www.google.com/about/company/unwanted-software-policy.html">unwanted software</a> or <a href="https://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2010/03/phishing-phree.html">revealing your personal information</a> (for example, passwords, phone numbers, or credit cards).
