Alexander Kornbrust: Oracle Rootkits 2.0 Black Hat Briefings, Las Vegas 2006 [Audio] Presentations from the security conference

    • Technology

"This presentation shows the next (2.) generation of Oracle Rootkits. In the first generation, presented at the Blackhat 2005 in Amsterdam, Oracle Rootkits were implemented by modifying database views to hide users, jobs and sessions.

The next generation presented at the BH USA is using more advanced techniques to hide users/implement backdoors. Modifications on the data dictionary objects are no longer necessary so it’s not possible to find the new generation of rootkits by checksumming the data dictionary objects.

Alexander Kornbrust is the founder and CEO of Red-Database-Security GmbH, a company specialized in Oracle security. Red-Database-Security is one of the leading companies in Oracle security. He is responsible for Oracle security audits and Oracle anti-hacker trainings and gave various presentations on security conferences like Black Hat, Bluehat, IT Underground.

Alexander Kornbrust has worked with Oracle products as an Oracle DBA and Oracle developer since 1992. During the last six years, Alexander has found over 220 security bugs in different Oracle products."
