Check Point - Wrong Check Point (CVE-2024-24919)
Check Point - Wrong Check Point (CVE-2024-24919)
Gather round, gather round - it’s time for another blogpost tearing open an SSLVPN appliance and laying bare a recent in-the-wild exploited bug. This time, it is Check Point who is the focus of our penetrative gaze. Check Point, for those unaware, is the vendor responsible for the 'CloudGuard Network Security' appliance, yet another device claiming to be secure and hardened. Their slogan - "you deserve the best security" - implies they are a company you can trust with the security of your network. A bold claim.

PCTattletale leaks victims' screen recordings to entire Internet
PCTattletale leaks victims' screen recordings to entire Internet
PCTattletale is a simple stalkerware app. Rather than the sophisticated monitoring of many similarly insecure competitors it simply asks for permission to record the targeted device (Android and Windows are supported) on infection. Afterward the observer can log in to an online portal and activate recording, at which point a screen capture is taken on the device and played on the target's browser.

Leveraging DNS Tunneling for Tracking and Scanning
Leveraging DNS Tunneling for Tracking and Scanning
This article presents a case study on new applications of domain name system (DNS) tunneling we have found in the wild. These techniques expand beyond DNS tunneling only for command and control (C2) and virtual private network (VPN) purposes. Malicious actors occasionally employ DNS tunneling as a covert communications channel, because it can bypass conventional network firewalls. This allows C2 traffic and data exfiltration that can remain hidden from some traditional detection methods.

Analysis of TargetCompany's Attacks Against MS-SQL Servers (Mallox, BlueSky Ransomware)
Analysis of TargetCompany's Attacks Against MS-SQL Servers (Mallox, BlueSky Ransomware)
While monitoring attacks targeting MS-SQL servers, AhnLab SEcurity intelligence Center (ASEC) recently identified cases of the TargetCompany ransomware group installing the Mallox ransomware. The TargetCompany ransomware group primarily targets improperly managed MS-SQL servers to install the Mallox ransomware. While these attacks have been ongoing for several years, here we will outline the correlation between the newly identified malware and previous attack cases involving the distribution of the Tor2Mine CoinMiner and BlueSky ransomware.

Kapeka: A novel backdoor spotted in Eastern Europe
Kapeka: A novel backdoor spotted in Eastern Europe
This report provides an in-depth technical analysis of the backdoor and its capabilities, and analyzes the connection between Kapeka and Sandworm group. The purpose of this report is to raise awareness amongst businesses, governments, and the broader security community. WithSecure has engaged governments and select customers with advanced copies of this report. In addition to the report, we are releasing several artifacts developed as a result of our research, including a registry-based & hardcoded configuration extractor, a script to decrypt and emulate the backdoor’s network communication, and as might be expected, a list of indicators of compromise, YARA rules, and MITRE ATT&CK mapping

Palo Alto - Putting The Protecc In GlobalProtect (CVE-2024-3400)
Welcome to April 2024, again. We’re back, again. Over the weekend, we were all greeted by now-familiar news—a nation-state was exploiting a “sophisticated” vulnerability for full compromise in yet another enterprise-grade SSLVPN device. We’ve seen all the commentary around the certification process of these devices for certain .GOVs - we’re not here to comment on that, but sounds humorous.

Shc Linux Malware Installing CoinMiner
The ASEC analysis team recently discovered that a Linux malware developed with Shc has been installing a CoinMiner. It is presumed that after successful authentication through a dictionary attack on inadequately managed Linux SSH servers, various malware were installed on the target system. Among those installed were the Shc downloader, XMRig CoinMiner installed through the former, and DDoS IRC Bot, developed with Perl.

CVE-2022-30333
On May 6, 2022, Rarlab released version 6.17, which addresses CVE-2022-30333, a path traversal vulnerability reported to them by Sonar, who posted a write-up about it. Sonar specifically calls out Zimbra Collaboration Suite’s usage of unrar as vulnerable (specifically, the amavisd component, which is used to inspect incoming emails for spam and malware). Zimbra addressed this issue in 9.0.0 patch 25 and 8.5.15 patch 32 by replacing unrar with 7z.

BRATA is evolving into an Advanced Persistent Threat
BRATA is evolving into an Advanced Persistent Threat
Here we go with another episode about our (not so) old friend, BRATA. In almost one year, threat actors (TAs) have further improved the capabilities of this malware. In our previous blog post [1] we defined three main BRATA variants, which appeared during two different waves detected by our telemetries at the very end of 2021. However, during the last months we have observed a change in the attack pattern commonly used.

Earlier this year Malwarebytes released its 2022 Threat Review, a review of the most important threats and cybersecurity trends of 2021, and what they could mean for 2022. Among other things it covers the year’s alarming rebound in malware detections, and a significant shift in the balance of email threats.

An update on the threat landscape
Online security is extremely important for people in Ukraine and the surrounding region right now. Government agencies, independent newspapers and public service providers need it to function and individuals need to communicate safely. Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG) has been working around the clock, focusing on the safety and security of our users and the platforms that help them access and share important information.

xz/liblzma: Bash-stage Obfuscation Explained - gynvael.coldwind//vx.log
xz/liblzma: Bash-stage Obfuscation Explained - gynvael.coldwind//vx.log
esterday Andres Freund emailed oss-security@ informing the community of the discovery of a backdoor in xz/liblzma, which affected OpenSSH server (huge respect for noticing and investigating this). Andres' email is an amazing summary of the whole drama, so I'll skip that. While admittedly most juicy and interesting part is the obfuscated binary with the backdoor, the part that caught my attention – and what this blogpost is about – is the initial part in bash and the simple-but-clever obfuscation methods used there. Note that this isn't a full description of what the bash stages do, but rather a write down of how each stage is obfuscated and extracted.
