Cisco: Hacker breached multifactor authentication message provider on April 1
Cisco: Hacker breached multifactor authentication message provider on April 1
Cisco said one of the providers it uses to send multifactor authentication (MFA) messages was breached by a threat actor on April 1. In emails to customers, Cisco said the incident specifically affected Duo — a multifactor authentication company it acquired in 2018. The attacker breached the system of a telephony supplier that Duo uses to send MFA messages through texts and phone calls to its customers.

The Fall of LabHost: Law Enforcement Shuts Down Phishing Service Provider | Trend Micro (US)
On Thursday, April 18, 2024, the UK’s Metropolitan Police Service, along with fellow UK and international law enforcement, as well as several trusted private industry partners, conducted an operation that succeeded in taking down the Phishing-as-a-Service (PhaaS) provider LabHost. This move was also timed to coincide with a number of key arrests related to this operation. In this entry, we will briefly explain what LabHost was, how it affected its victims, and the impact of this law enforcement operation — including the assistance provided by Trend Micro.

New Backdoor, MadMxShell
New Backdoor, MadMxShell
Beginning in March of 2024, Zscaler ThreatLabz observed a threat actor weaponizing a cluster of domains masquerading as legitimate IP scanner software sites to distribute a previously unseen backdoor. The threat actor registered multiple look-alike domains using a typosquatting technique and leveraged GoogleAds to push these domains to the top of search engine results targeting specific search keywords, thereby luring victims to visit these sites. The newly discovered backdoor uses several techniques such as multiple stages of DLL sideloading, abusing the DNS protocol for communicating with the command-and-control (C2) server, and evading memory forensics security solutions. We named this backdoor “MadMxShell” for its use of DNS MX queries for C2 communication and its very short interval between C2 requests.

Idle GPUs Are the Devil's Workshop
Idle GPUs Are the Devil's Workshop
Salad, a company that pays gamers in Fortnite skins and Roblox gift cards to rent their idle GPUs remotely to generative AI companies, is using those idle computers to create AI-generated porn. Though 404 Media hasn’t seen evidence that any of the images produced by Salad and its network of idle gaming PCs produced nonconsensual AI-generated sexual images, it’s technically possible, and Salad has had a generative AI client that previously produced that type of content.

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.

Ransomware Diaries: Volume 1
Ransomware Diaries: Volume 1
The LockBit ransomware gang is one of the most notorious organized cybercrime syndicates that exists today. The gang is behind attacks targeting private-sector corporations and other high-profile industries worldwide. News and media outlets have documented many LockBit attacks, while security vendors offer technical assessments explaining how each occurred. Although these provide insight into the attacks, I wanted to know more about the human side of the operation to learn about the insights, motivations, and behaviors of the individuals on the other side of the keyboard. To prepare for this project, I spent months developing several online personas and established their credibility over time to gain access to the gang’s operation.

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.
