The Curious Case of Predatory Sparrow
Reconstructing the Attack from a 4th party collector’s point of view Hamid Kashfi 18th December, Predator Sparrows launched a second attack against the fuel distribution system in Iran, similar to their previous operation in 2021. Since 2021, Iranian officials or third-party security vendors have not published any analysis or technical details about the original attack, which is not unusual. Their screenshots from the latest attacks provide some clues that only confirm our previous work, indicating connections to the “Yaas Arghavani” company, a VSAT and POS service provider for the fuel distribution system. The following is an old draft from December 2021, which I wrote for peer eyes rather than public view. The original draft focused on the first attack against the fuel distribution system. Still, some remarks remain valid and relevant to the recent attack on 18 Dec 2023, as little has changed regarding how the system works. The same infrastructure, same suppliers, and same 3rd party vendors, so we are likely just talking about a different attack vector and entry point from the previous case. I will probably draft a new note about the recent attack from scratch soon and when more details are gathered rather than updating the old speculative work.
