Ok, so as someone pointed out in private email, they have a blog that goes
through a 20 step process to exporting your private key from your RDP
server to the MITM box that is parsing the protocol. I think this is an
unlikely configuration, but in theory it IS possible. An anomaly detection
algorithm might be a better option for real world detection, even though it
is not specific to the bug.

In other words, just to annoy Rob Graham, maybe network defenses can't
really find every bug they want to - not just because they should not be
edge-devices with vast repositories of every private key on your network,
but because parsing requires state and state requires memory and you don't
have infinite memory.

ALSO: I'm headed to Tel Aviv next week if there's any infosec stuff
happening there and anyone wants to say hi!

So I like the BLUEKEEP marketing train because it's a very hard bug to
detect authoritatively for either endpoint protection or for network-based
defenses. So when companies make claims about it, it's worth asking how
they did that. Twitter is a terrible place for that, but since I know
everyone in the industry who does this kind of thing is on this list I
figured I'd ask here...
