Azure AD Connect Adds Support for Windows Server 2016 and SQL 2016
If you’re a customer who uses Azure Active Directory Connect, you’ll want to know that Microsoft just released version 1.1.343.0, which adds support for Windows Server 2016 and SQL Server 2016 and fixes some bugs.
Improvements:
– Added support for installing Azure AD Connect on Windows Server 2016 standard or better.
– Added support for using SQL Server 2016 as the remote database for Azure AD Connect.
– Added support for managing AD FS 2016 using Azure AD Connect.
Fixed issues:
– Sometimes, installing Azure AD Connect fails because it is unable to create a local service account whose password meets the level of complexity specified by the organization’s password policy.
– Fixed an issue where join rules are not re-evaluated when an object in the connector space simultaneously becomes out-of-scope for one join rule and become in-scope for another. This can happen if you have two or more join rules whose join conditions are mutually exclusive.
– Fixed an issue where inbound synchronization rules (from Azure AD) which do not contain join rules are not processed if they have lower precedence values than those containing join rules.

Security Bulletin: iOS “Pegasus” Malware and iOS 9.3.5 Security Update
On Aug. 25, 2016, Apple announced updates to address security vulnerabilities in iOS version 9.3.4 and earlier. The affected components include the iOS kernel and WebKit.
The vulnerabilities can result in jailbreak, remote code execution, and memory corruption. Security researchers at Lookout, Inc. have identified a high risk malware application, called “Pegasus”, that uses the vulnerabilities to compromise user devices.
MobileIron recommends that users update to iOS version 9.3.5 or later to obtain the necessary security patches. The security researchers have confirmed that the iOS patches prevent the vulnerabilities from being exploited.
Three vulnerabilities were patched in iOS 9.3.5. The vulnerabilities are referred to collectively as “Trident”. The reported CVE identifiers include:
- CVE-2016-4655: An application may be able to disclose kernel memory.
- CVE-2016-4656: An application may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.
- CVE-2016-4657: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to arbitrary code execution.
Detection of Pegasus Jailbreak:
According to the security researchers at Lookout, EMM vendors cannot currently detect the Pegasus jailbreak. At this time, the only known method to detect Pegasus is to use products from Lookout.
