Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence 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.

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]]> 2023-01-24T16:30:00+00:00 https://www.anomali.com/blog/anomali-cyber-watch-roaming-mantis-changes-dns-on-wi-fi-routers-hook-android-banking-trojan-has-device-take-over-capabilities-ke3chang-targeted-iran-with-updated-turian-backdoor www.secnews.physaphae.fr/article.php?IdArticle=8303740 False Malware,Tool,Threat,Guideline APT 25,APT 15 3.0000000000000000 ProjectZero - Blog de recherche Google Racing against the clock -- hitting a tiny kernel race window https://crbug.com/project-zero/2247) in the Linux kernel. (While trying to explain to someone how the fix for CVE-2021-0920 worked - I was explaining why the Unix GC is now safe, and then got confused because I couldn't actually figure out why it's safe after that fix, eventually realizing that it actually isn't safe.) It's a fairly narrow race window, so I was wondering whether it could be hit with a small number of attempts - especially on kernels that aren't built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, which would make it possible to preempt a thread with another thread, as I described at LSSEU2019. This is a writeup of how I managed to hit the race on a normal Linux desktop kernel, with a hit rate somewhere around 30% if the proof of concept has been tuned for the specific machine. I didn't do a full exploit though, I stopped at getting evidence of use-after-free (UAF) accesses (with the help of a very large file descriptor table and userfaultfd, which might not be available to normal users depending on system configuration) because that's the part I was curious about. This also demonstrates that even very small race conditions can still be exploitable if someone sinks enough time into writing an exploit, so be careful if you dismiss very small race windows as unexploitable or don't treat such issues as security bugs. The UAF reproducer is in our bugtracker.The bug In the UNIX domain socket garbage collection code (which is needed to deal with reference loops formed by UNIX domain sockets that use SCM_RIGHTS ]]> 2022-08-24T12:08:43+00:00 https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2022/03/racing-against-clock-hitting-tiny.html www.secnews.physaphae.fr/article.php?IdArticle=8221935 False Tool,Guideline APT 25 2.0000000000000000 Fortinet ThreatSignal - Harware Vendor NICKEL - Targeting Organizations Across Europe, North America, and South America 2021-12-07T15:08:56+00:00 https://www.fortiguard.com/threat-signal-report/4330 www.secnews.physaphae.fr/article.php?IdArticle=3791016 False Malware,Patching,Guideline APT 25,APT 15 4.0000000000000000
