## Instantané
En avril 2024, Zscaler ThreatLabz a découvert un nouveau chargeur nommé Dodgebox, une version améliorée et évoluée de Stealthvector, un outil précédemment utilisé par le groupe chinois APT, APT41, suivi par Microsofoft.com / Intel-Profiles / ByExternalid / E49C4119AFE798DB103058C3FFDA5BD85E83534940247449478524d61ae6817a).
## Description
Après leur analyse de Dodgebox, les chercheurs de Zscaler KenenceLabz évaluent que le malware est une version améliorée du chargeur Stealthvector car il existe des similitudes importantes entre les deux Malwares.Écrit en C, Dodgebox est un chargeur de DLL réfléchissant qui a un certain nombre d'attributs, y compris la possibilité de décrypter et de charger des DLL intégrées, d'effectuer des vérifications de l'environnement et d'effectuer des procédures de nettoyage.Notamment, Dodgebox utilise également l'usurpation de pile d'appels, une technique utilisée par les logiciels malveillants pour obscurcir les origines des appels API, ce qui rend difficile la détection et les programmes de réponse aux points finaux (EDR) et les programmes antivirus pour détecter les logiciels malveillants.Dodgebox a été utilisé par APT41 pour livrer la porte dérobée Moonwalk, une nouvelle porte dérobée utilisée par le groupe de menaces.
Dodgebox et Stealthvector ont tous deux des similitudes dans leur:
- Ducchissement de la somme de contrôle et de la configuration,
- Format de configuration déchiffré,
- Keying environnemental
- Stratégie de correction de la Flux Guard (CFG), et
- Utilisation de DLL CALOWING
Zscaler note que leur confiance dans l'attribution des activités Dodgebox à APT41 est modérée car la charge de touche DLL est une technique souvent utilisée par les groupes chinois APT.De plus, les échantillons de Dodgebox téléchargés sur Virustotal proviennent de la Thaïlande et de Taïwan, alimentant avec le ciblage historique de l'Asie du Sud-Est par APT41 en utilisant Stealthvector.

## Snapshot In April 2024, Zscaler ThreatLabz discovered a new loader named DodgeBox, an upgraded and evolved version of StealthVector, a tool previously used by the Chinese APT group, APT41, tracked by Microsoft as [Brass Typhoon](https://security.microsoft.com/intel-profiles/byExternalId/e49c4119afe798db103058c3ffda5bd85e83534940247449478524d61ae6817a). ## Description After their analysis of DodgeBox, researchers from Zscaler ThreatLabz assess that the malware is an enhanced version of StealthVector loader as there are significant similarities between the two malwares. Written in C, DodgeBox is a reflective DLL loader that has a number of attributes, including the ability to decrypt and load embedded DLLs, perform environment checks, and carry out cleanup procedures. Notably, DodgeBox also employs call stack spoofing, a technique used by malware to obfuscate the origins of API calls, making it difficult for Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions and antivirus programs to detect the malware. DodgeBox has been used by APT41 to deliver the MoonWalk backdoor, a new backdoor being employed by the threat group. DodgeBox and StealthVector both have similarities in their: - checksum and configuration decryption, - decrypted conf |

2024-04-08 15:09:15 | Faits saillants hebdomadaires, 8 avril 2024 Weekly OSINT Highlights, 8 April 2024 (lien direct) |
Last week\'s OSINT reporting reveals several key trends emerge in the realm of cybersecurity threats. Firstly, there is a notable diversification and sophistication in attack techniques employed by threat actors, ranging from traditional malware distribution through phishing emails to advanced methods like DLL hijacking and API unhooking for evading detection. Secondly, the threat landscape is characterized by the presence of various actors, including state-sponsored groups like Earth Freybug (a subset of APT41) engaging in cyberespionage and financially motivated attacks, as well as cybercrime actors orchestrating malware campaigns such as Agent Tesla and Rhadamanthys. Thirdly, the targets of these attacks span across different sectors and regions, with organizations in America, Australia, and European countries facing significant threats. Additionally, the emergence of cross-platform malware like DinodasRAT highlights the adaptability of threat actors to target diverse systems, emphasizing the need for robust cybersecurity measures across all platforms. Overall, these trends underscore the dynamic and evolving nature of cyber threats, necessitating continuous vigilance and proactive defense strategies from organizations and cybersecurity professionals. **1. [Latrodectus Loader Malware Overview](https://sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-explorer/articles/b4fe59bf)** Latrodectus is a new downloader malware, distinct from IcedID, designed to download payloads and execute arbitrary commands. It shares characteristics with IcedID, indicating possible common developers. **2. [Earth Freybug Cyberespionage Campaign](https://sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-explorer/articles/327771c8)** Earth Freybug, a subset of APT41, engages in cyberespionage and financially motivated attacks since at least 2012.
