L'attaque présumée s'est produite contre le Parti social-démocrate (SPD).Leurs comptes de messagerie ont été compromis dans l'attaque. Cette saga de piratage a commencé il y a plus de deux ans pendant la guerre russe-Ukraine et elle a progressivement augmenté au cours du temps. comment il a commencé Un groupe appelé APT28, également connu sous le nom de Fancy Bear, qui aurait des liens avec le gouvernement russe, a été accusé d'avoir fait de nombreuses cyberattaques partout dans le monde, y compris en Allemagne et quelques entités tchèques. Russian Cyberattack sur l'Allemagne Ils ont trouvé un Vulnérabilité Dans Microsoft Outlook et l'utiliser pour entrer dans les e-mails SPD. La vulnérabilité, un CVE-2023-23397 zéro-jour, est un bogue d'escalade de privilège essentiel dans Outlook qui pourrait permettre aux attaquants d'accéder aux hachages net-ntlmv2, puis de les utiliser pour s'authentifier à l'aide d'une attaque de relais. Le gouvernement allemand dit que non seulement le SPD mais aussi les entreprises allemandes en défense et en aérospatiale. Il comprenait également des objectifs de technologie de l'information, ainsi que des choses liées à la guerre en Ukraine. Ces cyberattaques ont commencé vers mars 2022, après que la Russie ait envahi l'Ukraine. Le gouvernement allemand a allégué que le service de renseignement militaire de la Russie, Gru, était derrière ces attaques. Ils ont même convoqué un diplomate russe en réponse à ces accusations. La Russie a nié les allégations La Russie a nié les allégations et appelé les accusations comme & # 8220; non fondée et sans fondement & # 8221;.

Microsoft a observé APT28 en utilisant GooseEgg dans le cadre des activités post-compromis contre diverses cibles, y compris les organisations gouvernementales, non gouvernementales, de l'éducation et des transports en Ukraine, en Europe occidentale et en Amérique du Nord. Bien que Gooseegg soit une application de lanceur simple, il peut engendrer d'autres applications sur la ligne de commande avec des autorisations élevées. Cela permet aux acteurs de menace de prendre en charge les activités malveillantes telles que l'exécution du code distant, l'installation d'une porte dérobée et le déplacement latéralement à travers des réseaux compromis. Les gouvernements américains et britanniques ont lié Forest Blizzard à l'unité 26165 de la Fédération de Russie \'s Military Intelligence Agency, la principale Direction du renseignement de l'état-major général des Forces armées de la Fédération de Russie (GRU). «Microsoft a observé qu'après avoir obtenu l'accès à un appareil cible, Forest Blizzard utilise GooseEgg pour élever les privilèges dans l'environnement.GooseEgg est généralement déployé avec un script de lot, que nous avons observé en utilisant le nom execute.bat et doit.bat .Ce script de lot écrit le fichier servtask.bat, qui contient des commandes pour enregistrer / compresser les ruches de registre.Le script de lot invoque l'exécutable de GooseEgg apparié et configure la persistance en tant que tâche planifiée conçue pour exécuter servtask.bat », lit le Advisory publié par Microsoft lundi.

Staying ahead of threat actors in the age of AI (lien direct)		 ## Snapshot Over the last year, the speed, scale, and sophistication of attacks has increased alongside the rapid development and adoption of AI. Defenders are only beginning to recognize and apply the power of generative AI to shift the cybersecurity balance in their favor and keep ahead of adversaries. At the same time, it is also important for us to understand how AI can be potentially misused in the hands of threat actors. In collaboration with OpenAI, today we are publishing research on emerging threats in the age of AI, focusing on identified activity associated with known threat actors, including prompt-injections, attempted misuse of large language models (LLM), and fraud. Our analysis of the current use of LLM technology by threat actors revealed behaviors consistent with attackers using AI as another productivity tool on the offensive landscape. You can read OpenAI\'s blog on the research [here](https://openai.com/blog/disrupting-malicious-uses-of-ai-by-state-affiliated-threat-actors). Microsoft and OpenAI have not yet observed particularly novel or unique AI-enabled attack or abuse techniques resulting from threat actors\' usage of AI. However, Microsoft and our partners continue to study this landscape closely. The objective of Microsoft\'s partnership with OpenAI, including the release of this research, is to ensure the safe and responsible use of AI technologies like ChatGPT, upholding the highest standards of ethical application to protect the community from potential misuse. As part of this commitment, we have taken measures to disrupt assets and accounts associated with threat actors, improve the protection of OpenAI LLM technology and users from attack or abuse, and shape the guardrails and safety mechanisms around our models. In addition, we are also deeply committed to using generative AI to disrupt threat actors and leverage the power of new tools, including [Microsoft Copilot for Security](https://www.microsoft.com/security/business/ai-machine-learning/microsoft-security-copilot), to elevate defenders everywhere. ## Activity Overview ### **A principled approach to detecting and blocking threat actors** The progress of technology creates a demand for strong cybersecurity and safety measures. For example, the White House\'s Executive Order on AI requires rigorous safety testing and government supervision for AI systems that have major impacts on national and economic security or public health and safety. Our actions enhancing the safeguards of our AI models and partnering with our ecosystem on the safe creation, implementation, and use of these models align with the Executive Order\'s request for comprehensive AI safety and security standards. In line with Microsoft\'s leadership across AI and cybersecurity, today we are announcing principles shaping Microsoft\'s policy and actions mitigating the risks associated with the use of our AI tools and APIs by nation-state advanced persistent threats (APTs), advanced persistent manipulators (APMs), and cybercriminal syndicates we track. These principles include: - **Identification and action against malicious threat actors\' use:** Upon detection of the use of any Microsoft AI application programming interfaces (APIs), services, or systems by an identified malicious threat actor, including nation-state APT or APM, or the cybercrime syndicates we track, Microsoft will take appropriate action to disrupt their activities, such as disabling the accounts used, terminating services, or limiting access to resources. - **Notification to other AI service providers:** When we detect a threat actor\'s use of another service provider\'s AI, AI APIs, services, and/or systems, Microsoft will promptly notify the service provider and share relevant data. This enables the service provider to independently verify our findings and take action in accordance with their own policies. - **Collaboration with other stakeholders:** Microsoft will collaborate with other stakeholders to regularly exchange information a Ransomware Malware Tool Vulnerability Threat Studies Medical Technical APT 28 ChatGPT APT 4 ★★

TA422\\'s Dedicated Exploitation Loop-the Same Week After Week (lien direct)		 Key takeaways  Since March 2023, Proofpoint researchers have observed regular TA422 (APT28) phishing activity, in which the threat actor leveraged patched vulnerabilities to send, at times, high-volume campaigns to targets in Europe and North America.  TA422 used the vulnerabilities as initial access against government, aerospace, education, finance, manufacturing, and technology sector targets likely to either disclose user credentials or initiate follow-on activity.  The vulnerabilities included CVE-2023-23397-a Microsoft Outlook elevation of privilege flaw that allows a threat actor to exploit TNEF files and initiate NTLM negotiation, obtaining a hash of a target\'s NTLM password-and CVE-2023-38831-a WinRAR remote code execution flaw that allows execution of “arbitrary code when a user attempts to view a benign file within a ZIP archive,” according to the NIST disclosure.  Overview  Starting in March 2023, Proofpoint researchers have observed the Russian advanced persistent threat (APT) TA422 readily use patched vulnerabilities to target a variety of organizations in Europe and North America. TA422 overlaps with the aliases APT28, Forest Blizzard, Pawn Storm, Fancy Bear, and BlueDelta, and is attributed by the United States Intelligence Community to the Russian General Staff Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU). While TA422 conducted traditional targeted activity during this period, leveraging Mockbin and InfinityFree for URL redirection, Proofpoint observed a significant deviation from expected volumes of emails sent in campaigns exploiting CVE-2023-23397-a Microsoft Outlook elevation of privilege vulnerability. This included over 10,000 emails sent from the adversary, from a single email provider, to defense, aerospace, technology, government, and manufacturing entities, and, occasionally, included smaller volumes at higher education, construction, and consulting entities. Proofpoint researchers also identified TA422 campaigns leveraging a WinRAR remote execution vulnerability, CVE-2023-38831.  Bar chart showing the breakdown of TA422 phishing activity from March 2023 to November 2023.  Please attend: CVE-2023-23397-test meeting In late March 2023, TA422 started to launch high volume campaigns exploiting CVE-2023-23397 targeting higher education, government, manufacturing, and aerospace technology entities in Europe and North America. TA422 previously used an exploit for CVE-2023-23397 to target Ukrainian entities as early as April 2022, according to open-source reporting by CERT-EU.  In the Proofpoint-identified campaigns, our researchers initially observed small numbers of emails attempting to exploit this vulnerability. The first surge in activity caught our attention partly due to all the emails pointing to the same listener server, but mostly due to the volume. This campaign was very large compared to typical state-aligned espionage campaign activity Proofpoint tracks. Proofpoint observed over 10,000 repeated attempts to exploit the Microsoft Outlook vulnerability, targeting the same accounts daily during the late summer of 2023. It is unclear if this was operator error or an informed effort to collect target credentials. TA422 re-targeted many of the higher education and manufacturing users previously targeted in March 2023. It is unclear why TA422 re-targeted these entities with the same exploit. Based upon the available campaign data, Proofpoint suspects that these entities are priority targets and as a result, the threat actor attempted broad, lower effort campaigns regularly to try and gain access.    Like the high-volume TA422 campaign Proofpoint researchers identified in March 2023, the late summer 2023 messages contained an appointment attachment, using the Transport Neutral Encapsulation Format (TNEF) file. The TNEF file used a fake file extension to masquerade as a CSV, Excel file, or Word document, and contained an UNC path directing traffic to an SMB listener being hosted on a likely compromised Ubiquiti router.

Building Cybersecurity into the supply chain is essential as threats mount (lien direct)		 The content of this post is solely the responsibility of the author.  AT&T does not adopt or endorse any of the views, positions, or information provided by the author in this article.  The supply chain, already fragile in the USA, is at severe and significant risk of damage by cyberattacks. According to research analyzed by Forbes, supply chain attacks now account for a huge 62% of all commercial attacks, a clear indication of the scale of the challenge faced by the supply chain and the logistics industry as a whole. There are solutions out there, however, and the most simple of these concerns a simple upskilling of supply chain professionals to be aware of cybersecurity systems and threats. In an industry dominated by the need for trust, this is something that perhaps can come naturally for the supply chain. Building trust and awareness At the heart of a successful supply chain relationship is trust between partners. Building that trust, and securing high quality business partners, relies on a few factors. Cybersecurity experts and responsible officers will see some familiarity - due diligence, scrutiny over figures, and continuous monitoring. In simple terms, an effective framework of checking and rechecking work, monitored for compliance on all sides. These factors are a key part of new federal cybersecurity rules, according to news agency Reuters. Among other measures are a requirement for companies to have rigorous control over system patching, and measures that would require cloud hosted services to identify foreign customers. These are simple but important steps, and give a hint to supply chain businesses as to what they should be doing; putting in measures to monitor, control, and enact compliance on cybersecurity threats. That being said, it can be the case that the software isn’t in place within individual businesses to ensure that level of control. The right tools, and the right personnel, is also essential. The importance of software Back in April, the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre released details of specific threats made by Russian actors against business infrastructure in the USA and UK. Highlighted in this were specific weaknesses in business systems, and that includes in hardware and software used by millions of businesses worldwide. The message is simple - even industry standard software and devices have their problems, and businesses have to keep track of that. There are two arms to ensure this is completed. Firstly, the business should have a cybersecurity officer in place whose role it is to monitor current measures and ensure they are kept up to date. Secondly, budget and time must be allocated at an executive level firstly to promote networking between the business and cybersecurity firms, and between partner businesses to ensure that even cybersecurity measures are implemented across the chain. Utilizing AI There is something of a digital arms race when it comes to artificial intelligence. As ZDNet notes, the lack of clear regulation is providing a lot of leeway for malicious actors to innovate, but for businesses to act, too. While regulations are now coming in, it remains that there is a clear role for AI in prevention. According t Threat Cloud APT 28 ChatGPT ★★

Phony bank fraud prevention alerts were the most common type of text scam last year. "Reports about texts impersonating banks are up nearly tenfold since 2019 with median reported individual losses of $3,000 last year," the report says. These are the top five text scams reported by the FTC: Copycat bank fraud prevention alerts Bogus "gifts" that can cost you Fake package delivery problems Phony job offers Not-really-from-Amazon security alerts "People get a text supposedly from a bank asking them to call a number ASAP about suspicious activity or to reply YES or NO to verify whether a transaction was authorized. If they reply, they\'ll get a call from a phony \'fraud department\' claiming they want to \'help get your money back.\' What they really want to do is make unauthorized transfers. "What\'s more, they may ask for personal information like Social Security numbers, setting people up for possible identity theft." Fake gift card offers took second place, followed by phony package delivery problems. "Scammers understand how our shopping habits have changed and have updated their sleazy tactics accordingly," the FTC says. "People may get a text pretending to be from the U.S. Postal Service, FedEx, or UPS claiming there\'s a problem with a delivery. "The text links to a convincing-looking – but utterly bogus – website that asks for a credit card number to cover a small \'redelivery fee.\'" Scammers also target job seekers with bogus job offers in an attempt to steal their money and personal information. "With workplaces in transition, some scammers are using texts to perpetrate old-school forms of fraud – for example, fake \'mystery shopper\' jobs or bogus money-making offers for driving around with cars wrapped in ads," the report says. "Other texts target people who post their resumes on employment websites. They claim to offer jobs and even send job seekers checks, usually with instructions to send some of the money to a different address for materials, training, or the like. By the time the check bounces, the person\'s money – and the phony \'employer\' – are long gone." Finally, scammers impersonate Amazon and send fake security alerts to trick victims into sending money. "People may get what looks like a message from \'Amazon,\' asking to verify a big-ticket order they didn\'t place," the FTC says.

"Google Chrome users who use the browser regularly should be wary of a new attack campaign that distributes malware by posing as a Google Chrome update error message," Trend Micro warns. "The attack campaign has been operational since February 2023 and has a large impact area." The message displayed reads, "UPDATE EXCEPTION. An error occurred in Chrome automatic update. Please install the update package manually later, or wait for the next automatic update." A link is provided at the bottom of the bogus error message that takes the user to what\'s misrepresented as a link that will support a Chrome manual update. In fact the link will download a ZIP file that contains an EXE file. The payload is a cryptojacking Monero miner. A cryptojacker is bad enough since it will drain power and degrade device performance. This one also carries the potential for compromising sensitive information, particularly credentials, and serving as staging for further attacks. This campaign may be more effective for its routine, innocent look. There are no spectacular threats, no promises of instant wealth, just a notice about a failed update. Users can become desensitized to the potential risks bogus messages concerning IT issues carry with them. Informed users are the last line of defense against attacks like these.

From phishing to tricking us to click on websites, if an attacker can get their code on our systems they are no longer our systems. Attackers will even invest the time, energy, and expense to get their malicious drivers approved and co-designed through the Windows Hardware Compatibility Program in order to gain access to our machines. Ensuring that these malicious drivers are blocked is a key method for protecting systems.Microsoft has long touted a means to update this master listing on our systems and, in theory, the idea was valid: using settings and security hardware on the computer, enabling hypervisor-protected code integrity (HVCI) was supposed to protect systems from malicious drivers. Attackers have used such attacks in the past ranging from RobbinHood, Uroburos, Derusbi, GrayFish, and Sauron, to campaigns by the threat actor STRONTIUM. As a Microsoft blog in 2020 pointed out, if a computer had HVCI enabled, it would be able to defend itself against vulnerable and malicious drivers.

2022-08-18 08:00:00 Ukraine and the fragility of agriculture security (lien direct) By Joe Marshall.The war in Ukraine has had far-reaching global implications and one of the most immediate effects felt will be on the global supply chain for food. This war-induced fragility has exposed the weaknesses of how we feed ourselves globally. Ransomware cartels and other adversaries are well aware of this and are actively exploiting that fragility. For the past six years, Cisco Talos has been actively involved in assisting public and private institutions in Ukraine to defend themselves against state-sponsored actors. Our involvement stretches the gamut from commercial to critical infrastructure, to election security. Our presence has afforded us unique opportunities and observations about cybersecurity in a macro and micro way. Ukraine has been a frequent victim of state-sponsored cyber attacks aimed at critical infrastructures like power and transportation. Talos is proud to stand with our partners in Ukraine and help defend their critical networks and help users there maintain access to necessary services. Now that Russia has invaded Ukraine, those threats have escalated to kinetic attacks that are wreaking havoc on a critical element of our world: agriculture and our global food supply chain. Even worse is the implications this war will have for future cyber attacks, as fragility is considered a lucrative element in deciding victimology by threat actors like ransomware cartels. To truly grasp the implications of the war in Ukraine, we have to examine how vital Ukrainian agriculture feeds the world, the current state of affairs, and what this means for the global cybersecurity posture to protect agricultural assets. Where there is weakness, there is opportunityRansomware cartels and their affiliates are actively targeting the agricultural industry. Moreover, these actors have done their homework and are targeting agricultural companies during the two times of the year where they cannot suffer disruptions: planting and harvesting. Per the published FBI PIN Alert: “Cyber actors may perceive cooperatives as lucrative targets with a willingness to pay due to the time-sensitive role they play in agricultural production.” This is far from unusual for these adversaries - they are shrewd and calculating, and understand their victims' weaknesses and industries.

Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence SharpTongue Deploys Clever Mail-Stealing Browser Extension “SHARPEXT” (published: July 28, 2022) Volexity researchers discovered SharpExt, a new malicious browser app used by the North-Korea sponsored Velvet Chollima (Kimsuky, SharpTongue, Thallium) group. SharpExt inspects and exfiltrates data from a victim's webmail (AOL or Gmail) account as they browse it. Velvet Chollima continues to add new features to the app, the latest known version (3.0) supports three browsers: Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, and Whale, the latter almost exclusively used in South Korea. Following the initial compromise, Velvet Chollima deploy SharpExt and to avoid warning the victim they manually exfiltrate settings files to change the settings and generate a valid "super_mac" security check value. They also hide the newly opened DevTools window and any other warning windows such as a warning regarding extensions running in developer mode. Analyst Comment: Velvet Chollima is known for its tactic of deploying malicious browser extensions, but in the past it was concentrating on stealing credentials instead of emails. The group continues aggressive cyberespionage campaigns exfiltrating military and industrial technologies from Europe, South Korea, and the US.

Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence Lockbit Ransomware Disguised as Copyright Claim E-mail Being Distributed (published: June 24, 2022) ASEC researchers have released their analysis of a recent phishing campaign, active since February 2022. The campaign aims to infect users with Lockbit ransomware, using the pretense of a copyright claim as the phishing lure. The phishing email directs the recipient to open the attached zip file which contains a pdf of the infringed material. In reality, the pdf is a disguised NSIS executable which downloads and installs Lockbit. The ransomware is installed onto the desktop for persistence through desktop change or reboot. Prior to data encryption, Lockbit will delete the volume shadow copy to prevent data recovery, in addition to terminating a variety of services and processes to avoid detection. Analyst Comment: Never click on suspicious attachments or run any executables from suspicious emails. Copyright infringement emails are a common phishing lure. Such emails will be straight forward to rectify if legitimate. If a copyright email is attempting to coerce you into opening attachments, such emails should be treated with extreme caution.

API Hammering makes use of a large volume of Windows API calls to delay the execution of malicious activity to trick sandboxes into thinking the malware is benign. Whilst BazarLoader has utilized the technique in the past, this new variant creates large loops of benign API using a new process. Encoded registry keys within the malware are used for the calls and the large loop count is created from the offset of the first null byte of the first file in System32 directory. Zloader uses a different form of API Hammering to evade sandbox detection. Hardcoded within Zloader are four large functions with many smaller functions within. Each function makes an input/output (I/O) call to mimic the behavior of many legitimate processes. Analyst Comment: Defense in depth is the best defense against sophisticated malware.

Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence Attackers Are Attempting to Exploit Critical F5 BIG-IP RCE (published: May 9, 2022) CVE-2022-1388, a critical remote code execution vulnerability affecting F5 BIG-IP multi-purpose networking devices/modules, was made public on May 4, 2022. It is of high severity (CVSSv3 score is 9.8). By May 6, 2022, multiple researchers have developed proof-of concept (PoC) exploits for CVE-2022-1388. The first in-the-wild exploitation attempts were reported on May 8, 2022. Analyst Comment: Update your vulnerable F5 BIG-IP versions 13.x and higher. BIG-IP 11.x and 12.x will not be fixed, but temporary mitigations available: block iControl REST access through the self IP address and through the management interface, modify the BIG-IP httpd configuration.

Jocker trojan operators add malicious code to legitimate apps and re-upload them to Google Store under different names. To avoid detection, malicious functionality won’t start until the trojan checks that it is available in the store. The malicious payload is split in up to four files. It can block or substitute anti-fraud scripts, and modify X-Requested-With header in an HTTP request. Another Android malware involved in subscription fraud, MobOk trojan, has additional functionality to bypass captcha. MobOk was seen in a malicious app in Google Store, but the most common infection vector is being spread by other Trojans such as Triada. Analyst Comment: Limit your apps to downloads from the official stores (Google Store for Android), avoid new apps with low number of downloads and bad reviews. Pay attention to the terms of use and payment. Avoid granting it too many permissions if those are not crucial to the app alleged function. Monitor your balance and subscription list.

Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence SocGholish and Zloader – From Fake Updates and Installers to Owning Your Systems (published: April 25, 2022) Cybereason researchers have compared trending attacks involving SocGholish and Zloader malware. Both infection chains begin with social engineering and malicious downloads masquerading as legitimate software, and both lead to data theft and possible ransomware installation. SocGholish attacks rely on drive-by downloads followed by user execution of purported browser installer or browser update. The SocGholish JavaScript payload is obfuscated using random variable names and string manipulation. The attacker domain names are written in reverse order with the individual string characters being put at the odd index positions. Zloader infection starts by masquerading as a popular application such as TeamViewer. Zloader acts as information stealer, backdoor, and downloader. Active since 2016, Zloader actively evolves and has acquired detection evasion capabilities, such as excluding its processes from Windows Defender and using living-off-the-land (LotL) executables. Analyst Comment: All applications should be carefully researched prior to installing on a personal or work machine. Applications that request additional permissions upon installation should be carefully vetted prior to allowing permissions. Additionally, all applications, especially free versions, should only be downloaded from trusted vendors.

Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence Lazarus Targets Chemical Sector (published: April 14, 2022) In January 2022, Symantec researchers discovered a new wave of Operation Dream Job. This operation, attributed to the North Korea-sponsored group Lazarus, utilizes fake job offers via professional social media and email communications. With the new wave of attacks, Operation Dream Job switched from targeting the defense, government, and engineering sectors to targeting South Korean organizations operating within the chemical sector. A targeted user executes an HTM file sent via a link. The HTM file is copied to a DLL file to be injected into the legitimate system management software. It downloads and executes the final backdoor: a trojanized version of the Tukaani project LZMA Utils library (XZ Utils) with a malicious export added (AppMgmt). After the initial access, the attackers gain persistence via scheduled tasks, move laterally, and collect credentials and sensitive information. Analyst Comment: Organizations should train their users to recognize social engineering attacks including those posing as “dream job” proposals. Organizations facing cyberespionage threats should implement a defense-in-depth approach: layering of security mechanisms, redundancy, fail-safe defense processes.
