2024-04-03 20:46:53 | Earth Freybug Uses UNAPIMON for Unhooking Critical APIs (lien direct) | #### Description
Trend Micro a analysé une attaque de cyberespionnage que la société a attribuée à Earth Freybug, un sous-ensemble d'APT41 (suivi par Microsoft comme [typhon en laiton] (https: // sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-profiles/f0aaa62bfbaf3739bb92106688e6a00fc05afc0d4158b0e389b4078112d37c6?)).Selon Trend Micro, Earth Freybug est actif depuis àAu moins 2012 et le groupe lié au chinois a été actif dans l'espionnage et les attaques financièrement motivées.Earth Freybug utilise divers outils tels que Lolbins et les logiciels malveillants personnalisés, ciblant les organisations à l'échelle mondiale.L'attaque a utilisé des techniques telles que Dynamic Link Library (DLL) détournement et décrocheur API pour éviter la surveillance d'un nouveau malware appelé Unapimon.Unapimon élude la détection en empêchant les processus enfants d'être surveillés.
Le flux d'attaque a consisté à créer des tâches planifiées à distance et à exécuter des commandes de reconnaissance pour recueillir des informations système.Par la suite, une porte dérobée a été lancée à l'aide d'un chargement latéral DLL via un service appelé sessionnv, qui charge une DLL malveillante.Unapimon, la DLL injectée, utilise le crochet de l'API pour échapper à la surveillance et à l'exécution de commandes malveillantes non détectées, présentant les attaquants \\ 'sophistication.

#### Description Trend Micro analyzed a cyberespionage attack the company has attributed to Earth Freybug, a subset of APT41 (tracked by Microsoft as [Brass Typhoon](https://sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-profiles/f0aaa62bfbaf3739bb92106688e6a00fc05eafc0d4158b0e389b4078112d37c6?)). According to Trend Micro, Earth Freybug has been active since at least 2012 and the Chinese-linked group has been active in espionage and financially motivated attacks. Earth Freybug employs diverse tools like LOLBins and custom malware, targeting organizations globally. The attack used techniques like dynamic link library (DLL) hijacking and API unhooking to avoid monitoring for a new malware called UNAPIMON. UNAPIMON evades detection by preventing child processes from being monitored. The attack flow involved creating remote scheduled tasks and executing reconnaissance commands to gather system information. Subsequently, a backdoor was launched using DLL side-loading via a service called SessionEnv, which loads a malicious DLL. UNAPIMON, the injected DLL, uses API hooking to evade monitoring and execute malicious commands undetected, showcasing the attackers\' sophistication.

Russian Cyberattacks Pose Greater Risk to Governments and Other Insights from Our Annual Report
(published: October 7, 2021)
Approximately 58% of all nation-state attacks observed by Microsoft between July 2020 and June 2021 have been attributed to the Russian-sponsored threat groups, specifically to Cozy Bear (APT29, Nobelium) associated with the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR). The United States, Ukraine, and the UK were the top three targeted by them. Russian Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) actors increased their effectiveness from a 21% successful compromise rate to a 32% rate comparing year to year. They achieve it by starting an attack with supply-chain compromise, utilizing effective tools such as web shells, and increasing their skills with the cloud environment targeting. Russian APTs are increasingly targeting government agencies for intelligence gathering, which jumped from 3% of their targets a year ago to 53% – largely agencies involved in foreign policy, national security, or defense. Following Russia by the number of APT cyberattacks were North Korea (23%), Iran (11%), and China (8%).
Analyst Comment: As the collection of intrusions for potential disruption operations via critical infrastructure attacks became too risky for Russia, it refocused back to gaining access to and harvesting intelligence. The scale and growing effectiveness of the cyberespionage requires a defence-in-depth approach and tools such as Anomali Match that provide real-time forensics capability to identify potential breaches and known actor attributions.

Ransomware in the CIS
(published: October 7, 2021)
Many prominent ransomware groups have members located in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) - and they avoid targeting this region. Still, businesses in the CIS are under the risk of being targeted by dozens of lesser-known ransomware groups. Researchers from Kaspersky Labs have published a report detailing nine business-oriented ransomware trojans that were most active in the CIS in the first half of 2021. These ransomware families are BigBobRoss (TheDMR), Cryakl (CryLock), CryptConsole, Crysis (Dharma), Fonix (XINOF), Limbozar (VoidCrypt), Phobos (Eking), Thanos (Hakbit), and XMRLocker. The oldest, Cryakl, has been around since April 2014, and the newest, XMRLocker, was first detected in August 2020. Most of them were mainly distributed via the cracking of Remote Deskto |
