R_Evil WordPress Hacktool & Malicious JavaScript Injections

R_Evil WordPress Hacktool & Malicious JavaScript Injections

We often see hackers reusing the same malware, with only a few new adjustments to obfuscate the code so that it is more difficult for scanning tools to detect.

However, sometimes entirely new attack tools are created and deployed by threat actors who don’t want to rely on obfuscating existing malware.

Confusing Name – R_Evil vs REvil

REvil is a group of ransomware (primarily) that has targeted several high-profile victims throughout 2020 — but are probably most well known for their ransomware attack against Travelex, which netted them a $2.3 million ransom payout.

manifest comclass curiosity

At the time I looked at certutil I spotted one interesting bit – its manifest included a reference to ‘certadm.dll’ and ‘comClass’.

<file name = "certadm.dll">
    <comClass description = "ICertAdmin2"
        clsid = "{f7c3ac41-b8ce-4fb4-aa58-3d1dc0e36b39}"
        threadingModel = "Both"/>
    <comClass description = "CCertAdmin"
        clsid = "{37eabaf0-7fb6-11d0-8817-00a0c903b83c}"
        threadingModel = "Both"/>
    <comClass description = "ICertView2"
        clsid = "{d594b282-8851-4b61-9c66-3edadf848863}"
        threadingModel = "Both"/>
    <comClass description = "CCertView"
        clsid = "{a12d0f7a-1e84-11d1-9bd6-00c04fb683fa}"
        threadingModel = "Both"/>
</file>

Once I spotted it I immediately jumped hoping that this is yet another rare persistence/side-loading opportunity. Not only ‘certadm.dll’ is not present on new OS versions (phantom DLL!), the `comClass` suggests we could be able to load some COM DLLs when some events happen related to a given application that leverages this loading mechanism which in COM documentation is referenced as a Side by Side registrationless COM.

Another interesting bit is that certutil.exe is an orphan when it comes to manifests with comclass. Yes, this is the only native OS executable I could find that has a manifest actually referencing ComClass!

Sadly, in the end I was not able to side-load anything or instantiate anything, but the idea sticks. Perhaps people more accustomed with COM can shed some light how to use it?

The Now-Defunct Firms Behind 8chan, QAnon

Some of the world’s largest Internet firms have taken steps to crack down on disinformation spread by QAnon conspiracy theorists and the hate-filled anonymous message board 8chan. But according to a California-based security researcher, those seeking to de-platform these communities may have overlooked a simple legal solution to that end: Both the Nevada-based web hosting company owned by 8chan’s current figurehead and the California firm that provides its sole connection to the Internet are defunct businesses in the eyes of their respective state regulators.

In practical terms, what this means is that the legal contracts which granted these companies temporary control over large swaths of Internet address space are now null and void, and American Internet regulators would be well within their rights to cancel those contracts and reclaim the space.

The IP address ranges in the upper-left portion of this map of QAnon and 8kun-related sites — some 21,000 IP addresses beginning in “206.” and “207.” — are assigned to N.T. Technology Inc. Image source: twitter.com/Redrum_of_Crows

That idea was floated by Ron Guilmette, a longtime anti-spam crusader who recently turned his attention to disrupting the online presence of QAnon and 8chan (recently renamed “8kun”).

On Sunday, 8chan and a host of other sites related to QAnon conspiracy theories were briefly knocked offline after Guilmette called 8chan’s anti-DDoS provider and convinced them to stop protecting the site from crippling online attacks (8Chan is now protected by an anti-DDoS provider in St. Petersburg, Russia).

The public face of 8chan is Jim Watkins, a pig farmer in the Philippines who many experts believe is also the person behind the shadowy persona of “Q” at the center of the conspiracy theory movement.

Watkin owns and operates a Reno, Nev.-based hosting firm called N.T. Technology Inc. That company has a legal contract with the American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN), the non-profit which administers IP addresses for entities based in North America.

ARIN’s contract with N.T. Technology gives the latter the right to use more than 21,500 IP addresses. But as Guilmette discovered recently, N.T. Technology is listed in Nevada Secretary of State records as under an “administrative hold,” which according to Nevada statute is a “terminated” status indicator meaning the company no longer has the right to transact business in the state.

N.T. Technology’s listing in the Nevada Secretary of State records. Click to Enlarge.

The same is true for Centauri Communications, a Freemont, Calif.-based Internet Service Provider that serves as N.T. Technology’s colocation provider and sole connection to the larger Internet. Centauri was granted more than 4,000 IPv4 addresses by ARIN more than a decade ago.

According to the California Secretary of State, Centauri’s status as a business in the state is “suspended.” It appears that Centauri hasn’t filed any business records with the state since 2009, and the state subsequently suspended the company’s license to do business in Aug. 2012. Separately, the California State Franchise Tax Board (FTB) suspended this company as of April 1, 2014.

Centauri Communications’ listing with the California Secretary of State’s office.

Neither Centauri Communications nor N.T. Technology responded to repeated requests for comment.

KrebsOnSecurity shared Guilmette’s findings with ARIN, which said it would investigate the matter.

“ARIN has received a fraud report from you and is evaluating it,” a spokesperson for ARIN said. “We do not comment on such reports publicly.”

Guilmette said apart from reclaiming the Internet address space from Centauri and NT Technology, ARIN could simply remove each company’s listings from the global WHOIS routing records. Such a move, he said, would likely result in most ISPs blocking access to those IP addresses.

“If ARIN were to remove these records from the WHOIS database, it would serve to de-legitimize the use of these IP blocks by the parties involved,” he said. “And globally, it would make it more difficult for the parties to find people willing to route packets to and from those blocks of addresses.”

Why More Cybersecurity Threats Since WFH?

As you may have noticed from the headlines, security incidents have increased significantly since the pandemic began. For a start, complaints to the FBI’s Cyber Division are up 400% from before the COVID-19 pandemic and come especially from small and medium-sized businesses.

Not surprisingly, one of the biggest reasons for this uptick in attacks is the widespread and sudden switch to work-from-home (WFH). This switch presents a sea change not just in how we conceptualize ‘work’ in the 21st Century, but how we secure scores of workers who now make up a distributed workforce rather than a single, unified ‘office’ as we’ve traditionally understood it.

In this post, we examine some of the WFH factors contributing to this rise in incidents.

Stuck Inside, the World Turns to Online Gaming

In my line of work, we talk a lot about traffic trends. They’re usually predictable and based around certain events: a major trailer launch, Black Friday in the U.S, the Olympics. But the COVID-19 pandemic has derailed all expectations for 2020, and has itself become a noteworthy event, driving its own traffic. And one of the biggest trends we’ve seen during the pandemic is increased online gaming.

Cisco Firepower Management Center Software Common Access Card Authentication
Bypass Vulnerability

Priority:        High

Advisory ID:     cisco-sa-fmc-cacauthbyp-NCLGZm3Q

First Published: 2020 October 21 16:00 GMT

Version 1.0:     Final

Workarounds:     No workarounds available

Cisco Bug IDs:   CSCvv16245

CVE-2020-3410    

CWE-287

Summary

  o A vulnerability in the Common Access Card (CAC) authentication feature of
    Cisco Firepower Management Center (FMC) Software could allow an
    unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass authentication and access the
    FMC system. The attacker must have a valid CAC to initiate the access
    attempt.

    The vulnerability is due to incorrect session invalidation during CAC
    authentication. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by performing
    a CAC-based authentication attempt to an affected system. A successful
    exploit could allow the attacker to access an affected system with the
    privileges of a CAC-authenticated user who is currently logged in.

    Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There
    are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.

    This advisory is available at the following link:
    https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/
    cisco-sa-fmc-cacauthbyp-NCLGZm3Q

    This advisory is part of the October 2020 Cisco ASA, FMC, and FTD Software
    Security Advisory Bundled Publication, which includes 17 Cisco Security
    Advisories that describe 17 vulnerabilities. For a complete list of the
    advisories and links to them, see Cisco Event Response: October 2020 Cisco
    ASA, FMC, and FTD Software Security Advisory Bundled Publication .

Affected Products

  o Vulnerable Products

    This vulnerability affects Cisco FMC Software if it is running software
    release 6.6.0 or 6.6.0.1 and has CAC-based authentication configured.

    For information about which Cisco software releases are vulnerable, see the
    Fixed Software section of this advisory.

    Determine Whether CAC Authentication Is Enabled

    The response to a login attempt in the FMC GUI indicates whether CAC
    authentication is enabled:

       CAC authentication is enabled if the user is prompted with Press Log In
        to use the inserted CAC for authentication .
       CAC authentication is not enabled if the user is prompted with username
        and password fields.

    Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable

    Only products listed in the Vulnerable Products section of this advisory
    are known to be affected by this vulnerability.

    Cisco has confirmed that this vulnerability does not affect the following
    Cisco products:
