Hi all.

Welcome to the first Issue of Hackercool Magazine for year 2024. After completing six editions, I thought it would be a good idea to reboot the content of the Magazine. Although, I have been thinking about this since few months now, I never had a clear picture. Recently, the picture became somewhat clearer and I decide the first Issue of Edition 7 would be a great place to start.
As you read this Issue, you will see that it has two new features included and two old features brought back. The first new feature you will read is “Initial Access”. Initial Access, as its name implies features the file formats and types of vulnerabilities being used by Black Hat Hackers in real world to gain initial access to target system or target network.
The second new feature introduced with this edition is “Infection chain”. Also called as attack chain or execution chain, infection chain features all the files, scripts and commands that are executed after target user clicks on the file sent for gaining initial access to the execution of actual payload on the target system. I brought back an old feature “Tool of the month” with this Edition. For start, you will see a complete guide of DNSenum in this Issue.
Another feature I brought back is Hackstory. If you subscribed to Hackercool Magazine in its starting days, you will be familiar with this feature. No problem though, In the present Issue, enjoy reading the story in which we tell you how a Chinese APT performed cyber espionage for 8 months on organizations by exploiting a vulnerability in Barracuda ESG devices. In Bypassing AV/EDR, we explain our readers practically, how Black Hat Hackers are using Github to hide the -ir malicious activity. This is a enjoyable read+practical, as you will see. I hope you will enjoy it a much as we enjoyed preparing it.
