Drokbk Malware Menggunakan GitHub sebagai Dead Drop Resolver

December 13, 2022 by Flamango

Sebuah sub kelompok dari kelompok ancaman COBALT MIRAGE Iran memanfaatkan Drokbk untuk kegigihan.

Peneliti Secureworks® Counter Threat Unit™ (CTU) sedang menyelidiki malware Drokbk, yang dioperasikan oleh subgrup Cluster B dari grup ancaman COBALT MIRAGE yang disponsori pemerintah Iran. Drokbk ditulis dalam .NET dan terdiri dari dropper dan payload. Malware memiliki fungsi bawaan yang terbatas dan terutama mengeksekusi perintah atau kode tambahan dari server perintah dan kontrol (C2). Tanda awal kemunculannya yaitu dalam intrusi Februari 2022 di jaringan pemerintah lokal AS. Sampel malware Drokbk tidak tersedia dari insiden tersebut untuk dianalisis, tetapi peneliti CTU™ menemukan sampel yang diunggah ke layanan analisis VirusTotal.

Intrusi Februari yang diselidiki oleh responden insiden Secureworks dimulai dengan kompromi server VMware Horizon menggunakan dua kerentanan Log4j (CVE-2021-44228 dan CVE-2021-45046). Artefak forensik menunjukkan Drokbk.exe diekstraksi dari arsip terkompresi (Drokbk.zip) yang dihosting di file transfer yang sah. sh layanan online. Aktor ancaman mengekstrak file ke C:\Users\DomainAdmin\Desktop\ dan kemudian menjalankannya.

SessionService.exe adalah muatan malware utama, dan dimulai dengan menemukan domain C2-nya. Domain C2 sering kali dikonfigurasikan sebelumnya di malware. Namun, Drokbk menggunakan teknik dead drop resolver untuk menentukan server C2-nya dengan menghubungkan ke layanan resmi di internet (mis., GitHub). Informasi server C2 disimpan di layanan cloud di akun yang telah dikonfigurasi sebelumnya di malware atau yang dapat ditentukan lokasinya oleh malware.

Menggunakan informasi dari README.md, SessionService.exe mengirimkan permintaan awal ke server C2. Permintaan berisi nama host dan waktu saat ini (lihat Gambar 6).Selama eksekusi, peneliti CTU mengamati Drokbk membuat beberapa file. Tidak ada muatan atau perintah yang diterima dari C2 selama analisis.
