OWASP Frankfurt Chapter #66 - Cloud Security & Vulnerability Disclosure

Hello everyone, we're excited to invite you to our OWASP Chapter meeting #66! Our Chapter serves central Germany, particularly within the Rhine-Main (Hesse) region, as a platform to discuss and share information and application security topics. Anyone who is interested and enthusiastic about application security or security in general is welcome. All meetings are free and open. You do not have to be an OWASP member.

There will also be plenty of time to socialize before and after the event.

_What are we going to talk about?

1. Talk: Security at Scale - Mastering Cloud Security in the Cyberwar Era

Dominik Sowinski, Cybersecurity Architect & Cybersecurity Community Lead, Siemens

In the midst of rapid cloud transformation, industrial organisations face an ever-evolving cyber threat landscape, exacerbated by global events such as the war in Ukraine. This presentation will address the latest APT activities and the significant risks they pose to cloud infrastructures and critical industrial operations. We will explore cutting-edge strategies, technical considerations and essential processes to rapidly adapt and secure cloud environments at scale against these relentless threats. The presentation will help you understand how to fortify cloud applications and infrastructure in this dynamic threat landscape.

2. Talk: Let's talk vulnerabilities

Vinit K., Independent security research and threat hunting

A talk and live demo on cybersecurity threats involving terminal emulators and SSH. We will explore how URL handling in iTerm2 and Hyper can be abused for code execution, as well as delve into the recent CVE-2023-51385 vulnerability, which allows unexpected code execution via SSH ProxyCommand. The session will include interactive segments where the audience can contribute exploit ideas and deepen their understanding of these critical security issues.

_Afterwards?
We will pre- and conclude the evening with the possibility of socializing at the venue with free food and cold & hot drinks. For everyone who's interested, we will continue socializing at the Bockenheimer Weinkontor afterward.
