campagne de phishingCible l'industrie chinoise de l'énergie nucléaire
(Publié: 24 mars 2023)
Actif Depuis 2013, le groupe amer (T-APT-17) est soupçonné d'être parrainé par le gouvernement indien.Des chercheurs Intezer ont découvert une nouvelle campagne amère ciblant les universitaires, le gouvernement et d'autres organisations de l'industrie de l'énergie nucléaire en Chine.Les techniques sont cohérentes avec les campagnes amères observées précédemment.L'intrusion commence par un e-mail de phishing censé provenir d'un véritable employé de l'ambassade du Kirghizistan.Les pièces jointes malveillantes observées étaient soit des fichiers HTML (CHM) compilés à Microsoft, soit des fichiers Microsoft Excel avec des exploits d'éditeur d'équation.L'objectif des charges utiles est de créer de la persistance via des tâches planifiées et de télécharger d'autres charges utiles de logiciels malveillants (les campagnes amères précédentes ont utilisé le voleur d'identification du navigateur, le voleur de fichiers, le keylogger et les plugins d'outils d'accès à distance).Les attaquants se sont appuyés sur la compression LZX et la concaténation des cordes pour l'évasion de détection.
Commentaire de l'analyste: De nombreuses attaques avancées commencent par des techniques de base telles que des e-mails injustifiés avec une pièce jointe qui oblige l'utilisateur à l'ouvrir.Il est important d'enseigner l'hygiène de base en ligne à vos utilisateurs et la sensibilisation au phishing.Il est sûr de recommander de ne jamais ouvrir de fichiers CHM joints et de garder votre bureau MS Office entièrement mis à jour.Tous les indicateurs connus associés à cette campagne amère sont disponibles dans la plate-forme Anomali et il est conseillé aux clients de les bloquer sur leur infrastructure.

Xenomorph V3: a New Variant with ATS Targeting More Than 400 Institutions
(published: March 10, 2023)
Newer versions of the Xenomorph Android banking trojan are able to target 400 applications: cryptocurrency wallets and mobile banking from around the World with the top targeted countries being Spain, Turkey, Poland, USA, and Australia (in that order). Since February 2022, several small, testing Xenomorph campaigns have been detected. Its current version Xenomorph v3 (Xenomorph.C) is available on the Malware-as-a-Service model. This trojan version was delivered using the Zombinder binding service to bind it to a legitimate currency converter. Xenomorph v3 automatically collects and exfiltrates credentials using the ATS (Automated Transfer Systems) framework. The command-and-control traffic is blended in by abusing Discord Content Delivery Network.
Analyst Comment: Fraud chain automation makes Xenomorph v3 a dangerous malware that might significantly increase its prevalence on the threat landscape. Users should keep their mobile devices updated and avail of mobile antivirus and VPN protection services. Install only applications that you actually need, use the official store and check the app description and reviews. Organizations that publish applications for their customers are invited to use Anomali's Premium Digital Risk Protection service to discover rogue, malicious apps impersonating your brand that security teams typically do not search or monitor.

Threat Analysis: Active C2 Discovery Using Protocol Emulation Part3 (ShadowPad)
(published: October 27, 2022)
ShadowPad is a custom, modular malware in use by multiple China-sponsored groups since 2015. VMware researchers analyzed the command-and-control (C2) protocol in recent ShadowPad samples. They uncovered decoding routines and protocol/port combinations such as HTTP/80, HTTP/443, TCP/443, UDP/53, and UDP/443. Active probing revealed 83 likely ShadowPad C2 servers (during September 2021 to September 2022). Additional samples communicating with this infrastructure included Spyder (used by APT41) and ReverseWindow (used by the LuoYu group).
Analyst Comment: Researchers can use reverse engineering and active probing to map malicious C2 infrastructure. At the same time, the ShadowPad malware changes the immediate values used in the packet encoding per variant, so finding new samples is crucial for this monitoring.

Raspberry Robin Worm Part of Larger Ecosystem Facilitating Pre-Ransomware Activity
(published: October 27, 2022)
The Raspberry Robin USB-drive-targeting worm is an increasingly popular infection and delivery method. Raspberry Robin works as a three-file infection: Raspberry Robin LNK file on an USB drive, Raspberry Robin DLL (aka Roshtyak) backdoor, and a heavily-obfuscated .NET DLL that writes LNKs to USB drives. Microsoft researchers analyzed several infection chains likely centered around threat group EvilCorp (aka DEV-0206/DEV-0243). Besides being the initial infection vector, Raspberry Robin was seen delivered by the Fauppod malware, which shares certain code similarities both with Raspberry Robin and with EvilCorp’s Dridex malware. Fauppod/Raspberry Robin infections were followed by additional malware (Bumblebee, Cobalt Strike, IcedID, TrueBot), and eventually led to a ransomware infection (LockBit, Clop).
Analyst Comment: Organizations are advised against enabling Autorun of removable media on Windows by default, as it allows automated activation of an inserted, Raspberry Robin-infected USB drive. Apply best practices related to credential hygiene, network segmentation, and attack surface reduction.

Hacker Pwns Uber Via Compromised VPN Account
(published: September 16, 2022)
On September 15, 2022, ride-sharing giant Uber started an incident response after discovering a data breach. According to Group-IB researchers, download file name artifacts point to the attacker getting access to fresh keylogger logs affecting two Uber employees from Indonesia and Brazil that have been infected with Racoon and Vidar stealers. The attacker allegedly used a compromised VPN account credentials and performed multifactor authentication fatigue attack by requesting the MFA push notification many times and then making a social-engineering call to the affected employee. Once inside, the attacker allegedly found valid credentials for privilege escalation: a PowerShell script containing hardcoded credentials for a Thycotic privileged access management admin account. On September 18, 2022, Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto 6 suffered a confirmed data leak, likely caused by the same attacker.
Analyst Comment: Network defenders can consider setting up alerts for signs of an MFA fatigue attack such as a large number of MFA requests in a relatively short period of time. Review your source code for embedded credentials, especially those with administrative privileges.

2022-03-10 23:39:03 | APT41 Compromised Six U.S. State Government Networks (lien direct) | FortiGuard Labs is aware of a report that threat actor APT41 compromised at least six networks belonging to U.S. state governments between May 2021 and February 2022. To gain a foothold into the victim's network, the threat actor used a number of different attack vectors: exploiting vulnerable Internet facing web applications and directory traversal vulnerabilities, performing SQL injection, and conducting de-serialization attacks. The intent of APT41 appears to be reconnaissance, though how the stolen information is to be used has not yet been determined.Why is this Significant? This is significant because at least six U.S. state government systems were broken into and data exfiltration was performed by APT41 as recent as February 2022 In addition, a zero-day vulnerability in the USAHerds application (CVE-2021-44207) as well as Log4j (CVE-2021-44228), among others, were exploited in the attacksWhat's the Detail of the Attack?APT41 performed several different ways to break into the targeted networks.In one case, the group exploited a SQL injection vulnerability in a Internet-facing web application. In another case, a then previously unknown vulnerability (CVE-2021-44207) in USAHerds, which is a web application used by agriculture officials to manage animal disease control and prevention, livestock identification and movement. Also, APT41 reportedly started to exploit the infamous Log4j vulnerability (CVE-2021-44228) within hours of Proof-of-Concept (PoC) code becoming available. Patches for both vulnerabilities are available. Once successful in breaking into the victim's network, the threat actor performed reconnaissance and credential harvesting activities. What is APT41?APT41 is a threat actor who has been active since at least 2012. Also known as TA415, Double Dragon, Barium, GREF and WickedPanda, the group reportedly performs Chinese state-sponsored espionage activities. APT41 targets organizations in multiple countries across a wide range of industries, such as telecommunications, industrial and engineering and think tanks. In 2020, five alleged members of the group were charged by the U.S. Justice Department for hacking more than 100 companies in the United States.What are the Tools Used by APT41?APT41 is known to use the following tools:ASPXSpy - web shell backdoorBITSAdmin - PowerShell cmdlets for creating and managing file transfers.BLACKCOFFEE - backdoor that disguise its communications as benign traffic to legitimate websites certutil - command-line utility tool used for manipulating certification authority (CA) data and components.China Chopper - web shell backdoor that allows attacker to have remote access to an enterprise networkCobalt Strike - a commercial penetration testing tool, which allows users to perform a wide range of activitiesDerusbi - DLL backdoorEmpire - PowerShell post-exploitation agent, which provides a wide range of attack activities to usersgh0st RAT - Remote Access Trojan (RAT)MESSAGETAP - data mining malware Mimikatz - open-source credential dumpernjRAT - Remote Access Trojan (RAT)PlugX - Remote Access Trojan (RAT)PowerSploit - open-source, offensive security framework which allows users to perform a wide range of activitiesROCKBOOT - BootkitShadowPad - backdoorWinnti for Linux - Remote Access Trojan (RAT) for LinuxZxShell - Remote Access Trojan (RAT)Badpotato - open-source tool that allows elevate user rights towards System rightsDustPan - shellcode loader. aka StealthVectorDEADEYE - downloaderLOWKEY - backdoorKeyplug - backdoorWhat are Other Vulnerabilities Known to be Exploited by APT41?APT41 exploited the following, but not restricted to, these vulnerabilities in the past:CVE-2020-10189 (ManageEngine Desktop Central remote code execution vulnerability)CVE-2019-19781 (Vulnerability in Citrix Application Delivery Controller, Citrix Gateway, and Citrix SD-WAN WANOP appliance)CVE-2019-3396 (Atlassian Confluence Widget Connector Macro Velocity Template Injection)CVE-2017-11882 (Microsoft Office Memory Corruption Vulnerability)CVE-2017-0199 (Microsoft Office/WordPad Remote Code Execut | Malware Tool Vulnerability Threat Guideline | APT 41 APT 15 APT 15 | |
