Kaspersky discovered a new APT CloudSorcerer targeting Russian government entities and using cloud services as C2, just like the CloudWizard actor.
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.

Triangulation: validators, post-compromise activity and modules | Securelist
In this report Kaspersky shares insights into the validation components used in Operation Triangulation, TriangleDB implant post-compromise activity, as well as details of some additional modules.
Dissecting TriangleDB, a Triangulation spyware implant
In researching Operation Triangulation, we set ourselves the goal to retrieve as many parts of the exploitation chain as possible. As of now, we have finished analyzing the spyware implant and are ready to share the details.

ZetaNile: Open source software trojans from North Korea
ReversingLabs Malware Researcher Joseph Edwards takes a deep dive into ZetaNile, a set of open-source software trojans being used by Lazarus/ZINC.
Raspberry Robin Malware Targets Telecom, Governments
We found samples of the Raspberry Robin malware spreading in telecommunications and government office systems beginning September. The main payload itself is packed with more than 10 layers for obfuscation and is capable of delivering a fake payload once it detects sandboxing and security analytics tools.
POLONIUM targets Israel with Creepy malware
ESET researchers analyzed previously undocumented custom backdoors and cyberespionage tools deployed in Israel by the POLONIUM APT group.
When Pentest Tools Go Brutal: Red-Teaming Tool Being Abused by Malicious Actors
Unit 42 continuously hunts for new and unique malware samples that match known advanced persistent threat (APT) patterns and tactics. On May 19, one such sample was uploaded to VirusTotal, where it received a benign verdict from all 56 vendors that evaluated it. Beyond the obvious detection concerns, we believe this sample is also significant in terms of its malicious payload, command and control (C2), and packaging.
The SessionManager IIS backdoor: a possibly overlooked GELSEMIUM artefact
In early 2022, we investigated an IIS backdoor called SessionManager. It has been used against NGOs, government, military and industrial organizations in Africa, South America, Asia, Europe, Russia and the Middle East.
