Rhadamanthys v0.5.0 - a deep dive into the stealer’s components
Rhadamanthys v0.5.0 - a deep dive into the stealer’s components
  • The Rhadamanthys stealer is a multi-layer malware, sold on the black market, and frequently updated. Recently the author released a new major version, 0.5.0. In the new version, the malware expands its stealing capabilities and also introduces some general-purpose spying functions. A new plugin system makes the malware expandable for specific distributor needs. The custom executable formats, used for modules, are unchanged since our last publication (XS1 and XS2 formats are still in distribution). Check Point Research (CPR) provides a comprehensive review of the agent modules, presenting their capabilities and implementation, with a focus on how the stealer components are loaded and how they work.

Shc Linux Malware Installing CoinMiner
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.

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.

Malware Execution Method Using DNS TXT Record
Malware Execution Method Using DNS TXT Record
AhnLab Security Emergency response Center (ASEC) has confirmed instances where DNS TXT records were being utilized during the execution process of malware. This is considered meaningful from various perspectives, including analysis and detection as this method has not been widely utilized as a means of executing malware.

New RisePro Stealer distributed by the prominent PrivateLoader
New RisePro Stealer distributed by the prominent PrivateLoader
PrivateLoader is an active malware in the loader market, used by multiple threat actors to deliver various payloads, mainly information stealer. Since our previous investigation, we keep tracking the malware to map its ecosystem and delivered payloads. Starting from this tria.ge submission, we recognized a now familiar first payload, namely PrivateLoader. However, the dropped stealer was not part of our stealer growing collection, notably including RedLine or Raccoon. Eventually SEKOIA.IO realised it was a new undocumented stealer, known as RisePro. This article aims at presenting SEKOIA.IO RisePro information stealer analysis.

L’art de l’évasion How Shlayer hides its configuration inside Apple proprietary DMG files
While conducting routine threat hunting for macOS malware on Ad networks, I stumbled upon an unusual Shlayer sample. Upon further analysis, it became clear that this variant was different from the known Shlayer variants such as OSX/Shlayer.D, OSX/Shlayer.E, or ZShlayer. We have dubbed it OSX/Shlayer.F.

Raspberry Robin Malware Targets Telecom, Governments
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.

The Case of Cloud9 Chrome Botnet
The Case of Cloud9 Chrome Botnet
The Zimperium zLabs team recently discovered a malicious browser extension, originally called Cloud9, which not only steals the information available during the browser session but can also install malware on a user's device and subsequently assume control of the entire device. In this blog, we will take a deeper look into this malicious browser extension.
