During this year’s Black Hat in Las Vegas, I learned (or was reminded of) many lessons working alongside my Corelight colleagues and Black Hat Network Operations Center (NOC) teammates from Arista, Cisco, Lumen, NetWitness and Palo Alto Networks.

A recent vulnerability tracked as Rapid Reset (CVE-2023-44487) in the HTTP/2 protocol was recently disclosed by researchers and vendors. It was exploited in the wild from August 2023 to October 2023. The issue arises from the HTTP/2 protocol's ability to cancel streams using an RST_STREAM frame, which can be misused to overload servers by initiating and quickly canceling numerous streams, circumventing the server's concurrent stream limit.
In this era, threat actors have proven to be tireless in their pursuit of exploiting vulnerabilities and gaining unauthorized access to online platforms using anything from simple to sophisticated attacks. Today, we delve into shedding light on how attackers employ methods to bypass one of the most common defenses against automated attacks. Particularly on using TOR networks to evade or bypass CAPTCHA.
