Warning to ServiceNow admins: Fix your access control lists now

Warning to ServiceNow admins: Fix your access control lists now

A vulnerability in the way ServiceNow manages user access control lists can easily allow a threat actor to steal sensitive data, says a security vendor, who urges admins to review their custom and standard data configuration tables to beef up security..Researchers at Varonis told ServiceNow about the hole over a year ago, allowing it to quietly patch its platform as well as issue a security update to customers in May. But after ServiceNow this week issued a Common Weakness Enumeration (CVE-2025-3648) describing the problem, Varonis published details.Hopefully by now admins have taken advantage of the patch, with its new security capabilities.“The update from ServiceNow addressed a vulnerability that could have allowed low privileged users to access restricted data,” IDC President Crawford Del Prete told CIO.com. “These kinds of situations are always potentially serious, given the kind of data that ServiceNow handles.“In terms of remediation, admins need to make sure Access Control lists (ACLs) are configured properly and well managed,” he said in an email. “In a credit to ServiceNow, the company changed its default posture with recent patches to a ‘default deny’ posture, making sure that access to non-privileged users is not inadvertently granted.“ServiceNow environments (like many) are highly dynamic, with users and rights changing often. Keeping a focus on making sure changes are properly managed is critical,” he added.‘Act ASAP’Charles Betz, a principal analyst for enterprise architecture at Forrester Research, called it “a pretty serious vulnerability.”“People need to do this [follow ServiceNow’s advice] ASAP,” he said in an interview. “There is risk [that threat actors] are going to go after their data with the CVE being published.”“If you’re running a big production system like ServiceNow and not paying attention to security issues, you’re not doing your job,” he added. “You’ve had two months [since the security update was released] and now it’s gone public ... Other things need to slip back in the queue.”In an email, Yogev Madar, Varonis’ security research group manager, said that ServiceNow admins need to review the ACLs in their environment and take advantage of new access mechanisms to make sure the vulnerability can’t be abused.That includes making sure the ACLs aren’t solely dependent on data or script conditions that could lead to abuse, using the new ACL mechanism called ‘Deny else’ that provides better access control, and using the new Query ACL rule to limit the operators that can be used in queries and limit enumeration attempts.Even authenticated users can exploit the bugThe access control vulnerability allows unauthenticated, and even authenticated users, under certain conditions to use query requests to access data they aren’t supposed to get. To blunt this threat, ServiceNow has introduced additional access control list frameworks in the Xanadu and Yokohama versions of the platform.“This vulnerability was relatively simple to exploit, and required only minimal table access, such as a weak user account within the instance or even a self-registered anonymous user, which could bypass the need for privilege elevation and resulted in sensitive data exposure,” said Varonis in its blog. It isn’t aware of any cases where this vulnerability was exploited before ServiceNow issued the patch in May. Varonis warned ServiceNow about the hole, dubbed Count(er) Strike, in February, 2024.Platform can hold huge amount of sensitive dataA cloud-based platform, ServiceNow offers a wide range of capabilities including IT service management, IT operations management, customer service management, human resources service delivery, governance, risk, and compliance, healthcare and life sciences service management and more, meaning it can store a wide-range of sensitive personal data.According to Varonis, ServiceNow organizes virtually all information into tables, including elements like incidents and requests, instance properties and configurations, user data, application credentials, and much more. Each of these items is stored as a record within its respective table.The platform creates connections between tables using reference fields, which allow information to be shared across different tables. For example, a reference field in the Incidents table might link to a specific user record in the Users table, allowing that related data to be viewed across multiple tables. Access to these tables is managed mainly through Access Control List (ACL) rules. which determine what data users can access and how they can interact with it. A ServiceNow instance can contain tens of thousands of ACL rules, Varonis says.The key components of an ACL rule in ServiceNow are the resources the admin wants to protect (such as a table, field, or record), the operation, which specifies the type of access being controlled (such as read, write, create, or delete), and the conditions that must be met for the rule to apply.Four conditions for accessFour conditions in each ACL determine whether a user meets the requirements to access a specific resource:Required roles: This condition specifies the roles required to access a particular resource. If a user has one of the roles listed in the ACL, they are granted access;Security attribute condition, which uses security attributes to determine access;Data condition: This condition evaluates specific criteria related to the data itself. For instance, you might set a condition that limits access to only records with a certain status or within a specific date range.Script condition: This condition allows for the execution of custom logic. Admins can write scripts to implement complex security rules beyond simple role or data conditions. A script can be written to grant access only when a certain configuration in the instance is set, or only when a user is authenticated.These four ACL conditions for access are evaluated by ServiceNow in that order.Varonis discovered that ServiceNow denies access depending on which ACL conditions are unmet. If access to a resource is blocked due to either of the first two conditions — the “Required Roles” or “Security Attribute Condition” — access is denied.However, if access is denied due to failing the “Data Condition” or “Script Condition,” the user is presented with a page that shows the total count of records returned by the query, even if no records are visible. A threat actor can then use the application’s query parameters to infer detailed data through enumeration. Even worse, a threat actor could automate this process by writing a simple script for enumeration, Varonis said, allowing them to retrieve full record data from the table. They can then begin to retrieve the results from the HTML source. “No special configurations or plug-ins are needed,” noted Varonis, “just a user account in the ServiceNow instance with partial table or column access.”New ACL rules can be createdIf enabled, ServiceNow’s self-registration feature allows new users to create accounts and access an instance without prior administrator approval, Varonis added. While this simplifies onboarding for external users for basic access, it could also allow a threat actor to get that same access.“Though it is rare for instances to allow anonymous registration and access, this configuration was found in the ServiceNow systems of several Fortune 500 companies,” Varonis noted.Tables susceptible to the attack are those with ACLs with empty or overly broad “Requires Roles” and “Security Attribute Condition” sections. “This means any table protected only by data or script condition is fully exposed to the attack,” said Varonis.To address the vulnerability, ServiceNow created several new ACL rules that admins can implement. One is called Query ACL, which adds restrictions on the queries a user can execute on a table to retrieve records. New security data filters can also restrict access to records based on role or security attributes related to assertions.ServiceNow offers guidance for managing access control lists, as well as advice for admins and developers.“This vulnerability in ServiceNow is a powerful reminder that even well-established platforms can have dangerous blind spots when it comes to access control,” Gal Nakash, chief product office at Reco, a provider of SaaS security solutions, said in an email.“What makes this flaw especially concerning is the ease of exploitation. It doesn’t require privilege escalation or deep technical expertise, just misconfigured ACLs and clever use of query filters. That’s a low bar for potentially high-impact data exfiltration,” he wrote.“For organizations, especially those in regulated sectors like healthcare, finance, or government, this is a wake-up call. Access Control Lists (ACLs) must be configured with a ‘least privilege’ mindset, roles and security attributes should never be left empty or overly broad. ServiceNow’s new Query ACLs and security data filters offer powerful protections, but they only work if admins actively use and test them. But configuration alone isn’t enough. Admins should continuously monitor for anomalies like unusual query patterns or access by low-privilege users and audit permission changes across tables and roles.”

The best Amazon Prime Day deals offer discounts on headphones, TVs, robot vacuums and more

Amazon Prime Day is finally here, so now’s the time for members to stock up on discounted home essentials, clothing, shoes, and of course, tech. It’s safe to say that Amazon’s website will be overwhelming for the entirety of the event, so we wouldn’t blame you if you got distracted immediately upon opening it. If you’ve got gadgets on your wishlist, Engadget has you covered. We’re surfacing the best Prime Day deals for day two on gadgets and gear we can find for the whole of the shopping event. As in years past, Prime Day has brought solid discounts on some of our favorite tech including earbuds, tablets, robot vacuums and home devices. These are the best Prime Day deals you can get right now. We’ll be updating this post regularly throughout the duration of Prime Day, so check back to see the latest discounts. Prime Day deals: Engadget's top picks Apple AirPods Pro 2 for $149 (40 percent off): The AirPods Pro 2 remain Apple’s best set of wireless earbuds, as they offer the full set of Apple-focused features, strong ANC, onboard volume controls, a comfy in-ear design and a warm sound profile that most should find agreeable. They can even work as a hearing aid now. DJI Neo drone for $159 (20 percent off): The DJI Neo may be an inexpensive, beginner-friendly drone, but has powerful features like subject tracking and quick shots. It can shoot video at up to 4K 30 fps and is quick and maneuverable, though it's also fairly loud. You can also grab one with three batteries and a charger for $229 (21 percent off). Leebein Electric Spin Scrubber for $38 (46 percent off): This was my favorite thing I bought last year because it makes the must-detested chore of cleaning my shower less of a pain. It's an electric spin scrubber that comes with multiple cleaning heads so you can use it on your countertops, sinks, tubs and showers and more. It also has an adjustable arm so you can reach tough spots in hard-to-reach places, and it convenient recharges via USB-C. Samsung SmartTag 2 for $15.50 (48 percent off): Samsung users looking to keep track of their stuff need look no further than the SmartTag 2. One of our top picks for the best Bluetooth trackers, this accessory easily attaches to keys, bags and other items and uses Samsung's large finding network to show you their last known location. iRobot Roomba Vacuum and Mop Combo for $140 (49 percent off): A version of one of our top favorite robot vacuums, this budget-friendly machine comes with a water reservoir that allows it to mop hard floors. It connects via Wi-Fi to the iRobot app as well, which lets you set cleaning schedules and further control the machine. Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World bundle for $500: We'd be remiss if we didn't mention the fact that Amazon has the Nintendo Switch 2 available to order "by invitation" now. The Mario Kart World bundle is listed at the standard $500 price, so it's not a Prime Day deal per se, but considering Amazon was (supposedly) shut out of the initial Switch 2 order process earlier this year, it's notable to see the console listed on the site at all. Prime Day deals under $50 Soundcore Select 4 for $19 (46 percent off): This 9.3-ounce speaker is a massive improvement over built-in smartphone audio. It can fill a room at a decent range of frequencies, and works well in room-sized outdoor spaces — plus, with IP67 waterproofing, it can survive a dip in the pool. It's currently almost half off. Anker iPhone Nano Power Bank with Built-in USB-C Connector for $20 ($10 off): One of these little guys could represent the difference between a dead phone and a not-dead phone. It’s the size of an oldey-timey lipstick case and delivers a partial charge to any USB-C phone. We tested it out and awarded it a spot in our guide to power banks. Jisulife Life7 handheld fan for $23 (21 percent off): Jisulife makes handheld fans we've recommended in past gift guides and this is one of its newer models. It can be held, folded so it sits flat on a table or worn around your neck for a cool breeze wherever you're going. It has an easy-to-read display in its center that will show you the fan speed level or current battery life, and its 5,000 mAh battery can last up to 19.5 hours on a single charge when you're running the fan on its lowest setting. Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max for $35 ($25 off): This stick handles Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, 4K video and HDR10+ and supports Wi-Fi 6E. It has the fastest processor of any Fire TV Stick and Engadget’s Jeff Dunn has gotten a lot of use from the stick as a retro gaming emulator. Of course, Amazon’s user interface is less elegant (and less democratic) than others. And it highly prioritizes Prime Video content. Amazon Echo Spot for $45 (44 percent off): Amazon revived the Spot smart alarm clock last year, which features a half-circle shaped display that shows the time, weather and other information like song titles when you're using the speaker to play music. It has a compact design that will make it easy to fit on a desk or a nightstand, and as with any Alexa smart speaker, you can use it to control IoT devices like smart lights, locks and more. Prime Day Apple deals Apple iPad (A16) for $280 (20 percent off): The latest base model iPad comes with a faster A16 chip, 2GB more RAM and 128GB of storage as standard. It earned a score of 84 in our review — if you only need an iPad for roaming the internet, watching shows and doing some lighter productivity tasks, it's a good starter tablet. Apple iPad Air (11-inch, M3) for $479 ($120 off): In our opinion, the iPad Air is the best iPad for most people as it strikes an ideal balance between performance, price and features. The M3 chip is almost overkill for a tablet, but it means performance should never be an issue. And upcoming productivity gains from iPadOS 26 should make the tablet even more powerful. Apple Watch Series 10 for $280 ($120 off): We consider Apple’s flagship wearable to be the best smartwatch you can buy, period. It's a mostly iterative update, with faster charging, a slightly slimmer design and a marginally larger display than the prior Series 9. That said, it's still a comprehensive fitness tracker, and no other smartwatch can integrate as neatly with iPhones and other Apple devices. Prime Day audio deals Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones for $298 (25 percent off): While the XM6 headphones are the latest and greatest, they only make small changes to the already stellar XM5. These were our top pick for the best wireless headphones for a long time before the XM6 launched earlier this year, and we still like them for their excellent sound quality, strong ANC, multi-device connectivity and good battery life. Sony WH-CH720N headphones for $78 (48 percent off): The cheapest Sony headphones we'd recommend that are no slouch. They're lightweight and comfy with respectable sound for the price. You also get Adaptive Sound Control, 360 Reality Audio and multipoint Bluetooth on this budget model. Sonos Beam Gen 2 for $369 (26 percent off): The second-gen Beam soundbar has support for Dolby Atmos and it has a relatively streamlined design that should be easy to fit into most home entertainment setups. Beats Pill for $98 (35 percent off): The Beats Pill is one of the few portable bluetooth speakers we liked enough to give it a full review. Those of you who love the classic Beats bluetooth speakers will be happy to know they're back in fine form. Nobody can beat the Pill for bass, and its sound is crisp and lossless at almost any frequency and volume. For some reason, only the Kim Kardashian branded version is on sale, but it's the exact same speaker. Prime Day laptop deals Microsoft Surface Laptop (13.8-inch, Snapdragon X Plus) for $880 (27 percent off): In addition to running on a Snapdragon X Plus processor, this 2024 Surface Laptop has 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. It's a Copilot+ PC that also has a 13.8-inch touchscreen, and it should last up to 20 hours on a single charge. Google Pixelbook Go (13-inch, Intel Core M3) for $299 (54 percent off): The Pixelbook Go is a bit old at this point, but if you're a Chrome OS lover and want a Google-made laptop, this is a solid option. It includes an Intel Core M3 processor, 8GB of RAM, 64GB of storage and a 12-hour battery life. Prime Day tech deals Instant Pot Duo Plus 9-in-1 multicooker for $70 (50 percent off): This six-quart pressure cooker and multicooker is a versatile kitchen tool for anyone who (somehow) didn't buy into the Instant Pot craze a few years back. It can do a lot with its nine cooking modes, including pressure cook, slow cook, steam, rice cook, saute and more, and the six-quart size is great for families and meal-preppers. Ring Doorbell Battery + Indoor Cam 2 for $70 (50 percent off): If you're looking to build out a security system in your home, this bundle is a good place to start, giving you a video doorbell and an indoor security camera. You'll be able to see both live feeds in the Ring app, and they can send you motion alerts and let you speak to people on the other end of the camera when you're not at home. Kindle for $85 ($25 off): Our favorite budget option in our guide to the best ereaders, the latest base Kindle has 16GB of storage — more than enough to hold hundreds of books at a time. It has a compact and durable design that’s easy to take anywhere, and the latest model is faster than before with speedy page turns and a more seamless navigation between books, your library and other parts of the UI. Ninja Dual-Zone air fryer (10 quart) for $180 ($70 off): This model is one of our favorite air fryers thanks to its dual-zone cooking system, which allows you to prepare two separate foods at different temperatures and settings. There's even a Match Cook feature that ensures both foods will be done at the same time, regardless of their cooking settings. Levoit Core 400S air purifier for $183 ($37 off): Our top pick for the best air purifier, Levoit's Core 400S reliably improved air quality in our testing, plus it has easy to use onboard controls and replaceable filters that are not too expensive. We also found it to not be offensively loud, even on its highest setting. TP-Link Deco XE75 Wi-Fi 6E mesh system for $200 (20 percent off): Our top pick for the best mesh Wi-Fi system, this Deco XE75 three-pack is easy to set up and provides excellent performance with no-frills. The Deco mobile app lets you check speeds for each node, and you can see all of the devices on your network at any time. Kindle Scribe for $260 ($140 off): The Scribe is one of the best E-Ink tablets you can buy at the moment, and certainly the top pick if you want a writable table that also excels as an ereader. It provides a great reading and writing experience, thanks in part to its ability to access the entire Kindle ebook library, and it has handy Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive and Dropbox integration. Dyson V15 Detect Plus for $570 ($180 off): You can't get much better than a Dyson if you're on the market for a cordless stick vacuum, and the V15 Detect delivers. It's our current top pick for the best cordless vacuum overall thanks to its excellent suction power, lightweight design, good battery life and the included Fluffy Optic cleaning head that uses a laser to show you where all the debris is while you're using it. Amazon 55-inch Omni mini-LED Fire smart TV for $700 ($120 off): A top-of-the-line model in the Fire TV family, this set has a 4K QLED mini-LED display with 1,400 nits of peak brightness and "intelligence picture" technology that adapts the screen to your room's lighting conditions. It also has a 144Hz refresh rate and support for AMD FreeSync. Samsung 55-inch The Frame QLED 4K smart TV for $798 (47 percent off): This is the set that spurred all of the art TV copycats, and it's been a favorite of our staff for a long time. Samsung's set looks like a piece of art hanging on your wall when you're not watching TV, and you can cycle through thousands of images to show on the TV so you'll always have something new to display. Hisense S7N CanvasTV (65-inch) for $898 (31 percent off): Hisense's spin on Samsung's Frame sets, the CanvasTV, comes in much cheaper and with a boatload of features. The S7N sports an anti-glare display and art mode, as you'd expect, but there's also 144Hz support for a bit of gaming. It also comes with a slim wall mount so you can hang it on your wall like a genuine work of art. (The 55-inch model is also a great deal at $689, and the 77-inch is down to $1,399.) What is Prime Day? Prime Day is Amazon's members-only shopping event, which means you’ll have to be a Prime subscriber on Prime Day to take advantage of most of the savings. Amazon still offers a 30-day free trial to new Prime subscribers, so you can start your free trial closer to July and participate in the event. When is Prime Day 2025? Amazon Prime Day 2025 will be back this year on July 8 through July 11. How often is Prime Day? Amazon Prime Day typically comes around annually in July. In the last few years, Amazon has also had its "Big Deal Days" in October, which is effectively a second Prime Day and the unofficial kickoff to the holiday shopping season. How does Prime Day work? Prime subscribers can go to Amazon's site on Prime Day to see all of the exclusive deals they have access to. Prime subscribers do not have to do anything additional to get Prime Day sales: the discounts you see on product pages will show up in your cart automatically. If you're not a Prime subscriber and you go to Amazon to shop on Prime Day, you'll likely see tons of items on sale but only "with Prime;" those discounts will not be available to those who are not active Prime subscribers. Is Prime Day only for Prime members? Technically yes, but even if you do not pay for a Prime membership, you should still check out Amazon on Prime Day. While most Prime Day deals will be exclusively available to subscribers, there are always a handful of sales available to all shoppers. Amazon distinguishes between them very clearly: you'll see "Prime exclusive" on product pages near the deal pricing on the discounts that are only available to paying members. Separately, it’s very likely that other retailers like Walmart, Target and Best Buy will have their own competing Prime Day sales during that time frame, too. So if you're not keen on shopping at Amazon at all, it's worth checking out other retailers during the week of Prime Day to see if they are matching Prime Day deal prices.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/deals/the-best-amazon-prime-day-deals-offer-discounts-on-headphones-tvs-robot-vacuums-and-more-120028355.html?src=rss

IKEA goes all in on Matter with new smart home products

IKEA continues its push into the smart home category with a new line of Matter-compatible products, set to launch in January. The ready-to-assemble furniture conglomerate has been testing the waters with smart home products for a while now, but this is its largest release in the space yet.Beyond stating consumers could expect 20 new products running the open source Matter standard, zero specifics were provided on which items will launch next year. "Bringing Matter to our products means we are taking a big step in the right direction, offering compatibility across brands, and lowering the threshold for people to get started," said David Granath, range manager at IKEA.In the meantime, IKEA is teasing two new Bluetooth speakers that will launch later this year. An affordable speaker designed to look like an old radio will launch in July under the name NATTBAD, and a table speaker named BLOMPRAKT with atmospheric lighting is coming in October.Technical details are sparse, but the announcement describes support for features like multi-speaker setup and Spotify Tap. This would mark the first introduction of new speakers from IKEA since the company ended its partnership with Sonos earlier this summer.IKEA says more updates about the new range of smart home products will come ahead of the January launch.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/home/smart-home/ikea-goes-all-in-on-matter-with-new-smart-home-products-144232740.html?src=rss

Apple Appeals US Ban on Apple Watch Blood Oxygen Feature

Apple Appeals US Ban on Apple Watch Blood Oxygen Feature

Apple has asked a U.S. federal appeals court to overturn an import ban on Apple Watch models with blood oxygen monitoring capabilities, arguing that the decision was based on a patent dispute involving an undeveloped competing product, Reuters reports.On Monday, attorneys for Apple appeared before a three-judge panel at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit to contest a 2023 ruling by the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that blocked imports of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 in 2023 due to alleged patent infringement. The ban stemmed from a complaint filed by Masimo, a medical technology firm based in California, which accused Apple of violating its patents related to pulse oximetry — the measurement of blood oxygen saturation through non-invasive sensors.Apple's legal counsel this week argued that the ITC's ruling was unjustified because, at the time Masimo filed its complaint in 2021, the company had not yet brought a competing product to market. Masimo's first smartwatch, the W1, which included blood oxygen tracking, was not released until 2022 — two years after Apple introduced the feature with the Apple Watch Series 6. Apple maintains that Masimo's device was not market-ready when the company filed its complaint, and that the legal standard should not permit hypothetical products to justify trade restrictions. The decision had wrongly "deprived millions of Apple Watch users" of the blood-oxygen feature, Apple's attorney said.Masimo's attorney countered that Apple was attempting to "rewrite the law" by asserting that the ITC should only block imports when a physical, commercialized product exists at the time of complaint filing.The ITC originally ruled in Masimo's favor in October 2023, determining that Apple's implementation of blood oxygen measurement technology infringed several of Masimo's patents. As a result, the commission issued an exclusion order blocking imports of Apple Watch models that included the contested functionality. Following a brief stay granted by the Federal Circuit in December 2023, the import ban was reinstated in January 2024. Apple subsequently modified its devices for the U.S. market, disabling the blood oxygen sensor in newly sold Series 9, Series 10, and Ultra 2 models in order to resume domestic sales without violating the order. International models retain full functionality. The case remains under consideration by the Federal Circuit. A ruling is expected later this year.Related Roundups: Apple Watch 10, Apple Watch Ultra 2Tags: Apple Lawsuits, MasimoBuyer's Guide: Apple Watch (Caution), Apple Watch Ultra (Neutral)Related Forum: Apple WatchThis article, "Apple Appeals US Ban on Apple Watch Blood Oxygen Feature" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
