Hash Collision Due to 4GB Truncation in Malwarebytes EDR 1.0.11

The utility functions used by Malwarebytes EDR 1.0.11 on Linux for calculating a cryptographic hash of data bytes truncate the hashed data if it exceeds 4GB. This leads to an integer wrap-around if the data is larger than the maximum unsigned integer value (32-bit). Attackers could create a colliding hash value for two different strings by attaching 4GB of data to a string that is less than 4GB in size.

The Malwarebytes EDR 1.0.11 for Linux driver doesn't properly ensure whitelisting of executable libraries loaded by executable files, allowing arbitrary code execution. The attacker can set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, set LD_PRELOAD, or run an executable file in a debugger.

In Malwarebytes EDR 1.0.11 for Linux, it is possible to bypass the detection layers that depend on inode identifiers, because an identifier may be reused when a file is replaced, and because two files on different filesystems can have the same identifier.
