Comprehensive Threat Intelligence: Cisco Talos shares insights related to recent cyber attack on Cisco
On May 24, 2022, Cisco became aware of a potential compromise. Since that point, Cisco Security Incident Response (CSIRT) and Cisco Talos have been working to remediate. * During the investigation, it was determined that a Cisco employee’s credentials were compromised after an attacker gained control of a personal Google account where credentials saved in the victim’s browser were being synchronized.
A new botnet Orchard Generates DGA Domains with Bitcoin Transaction Information
DGA is one of the classic techniques for botnets to hide their C2s, attacker only needs to selectively register a very small number of C2 domains, while for the defenders, it is difficult to determine in advance which domain names will be generated and registered.
Attackers leveraging Dark Utilities "C2aaS" platform in malware campaigns
Dark Utilities, released in early 2022, is a platform that provides full-featured C2 capabilities to adversaries. It is marketed as a means to enable remote access, command execution, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks and cryptocurrency mining operations on infected systems. Payloads provided by the platform support Windows, Linux and Python-based implementations and are hosted within the Interplanetary File System (IPFS), making them resilient to content moderation or law enforcement intervention. Since its initial release, we've observed malware samples in the wild leveraging it to facilitate remote access and cryptocurrency mining.
CVE-2022-35650 The vulnerability was found in Moodle, occurs due to input validation error when importing lesson questions. This insufficient path checks results in arbitrary file read risk. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks. The capability to access this feature is only available to teachers, managers and admins by default.
Manjusaka: A Chinese sibling of Sliver and Cobalt Strike
Cisco Talos recently discovered a new attack framework called "Manjusaka" being used in the wild that has the potential to become prevalent across the threat landscape. This framework is advertised as an imitation of the Cobalt Strike framework. The implants for the new malware family are written in the Rust language for Windows and Linux. A fully functional version of the command and control (C2), written in GoLang with a User Interface in Simplified Chinese, is freely available and can generate new implants with custom configurations with ease, increasing the likelihood of wider adoption of this framework by malicious actors. We recently discovered a campaign in the wild using lure documents themed around COVID-19 and the Haixi Mongol and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province. These maldocs ultimately led to the delivery of Cobalt Strike beacons on infected endpoints. We have observed the same threat actor using the Cobalt Strike beacon and implants from the Manjusaka framework.
Microsoft links Raspberry Robin malware to Evil Corp attacks
Microsoft has discovered that an access broker it tracks as DEV-0206 uses the Raspberry Robin Windows worm to deploy a malware downloader on networks where it also found evidence of malicious activity matching Evil Corp tactics.
The risk of distributed denial-of-service attacks (DDoS) has never been greater. Over the past several years, organizations have encountered a deluge of DDoS extortion, novel threats, state-sponsored hacktivism, and unprecedented innovation in the threat landscape.
SEKOIA.IO presents its Ransomware threat landscape for the first semester of 2022, with the following key points: Ransomware victimology – recent evolutions A busy first half of the year – several newcomers in the ransomware neighborhood Cross-platform ransomware features trend New extortion techniques State-nexus groups carrying out ransomware campaigns Ransomware threat groups’ Dark Web activities * A shift towards extortion without encryption?
LockBit Implements New Technique by Leaking Victim Negotiations
While many ransomware groups come and go, LockBit seems to be the one that persists. First discovered in September 2019 using the name ABCD, and then gaining notoriety as LockBit in April 2020, the group has outlasted many of their competitors
The Return of Candiru: Zero-days in the Middle East - Avast Threat Labs
We recently discovered a zero-day vulnerability in Google Chrome (CVE-2022-2294) when it was exploited in the wild in an attempt to attack Avast users in the Middle East. The vulnerability was a memory corruption in WebRTC that was abused to achieve shellcode execution in Chrome’s renderer process. We reported this vulnerability to Google, who patched it on July 4, 2022.

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.
