Malware Config

Signatures

  • Adds new SSH keys 1 TTPs 1 IoCs

    Linux special file to hold SSH keys. The threat actor may add new keys for further remote access.

  • Modifies password files for system users/ groups 1 TTPs 1 IoCs

    Modifies files storing password hashes of existing users/ groups, likely to grant additional privileges.

  • File and Directory Permissions Modification 1 TTPs 3 IoCs

    Adversaries may modify file or directory permissions to evade defenses.

  • Executes dropped EXE 4 IoCs
  • Modifies sudoers policy 1 TTPs 1 IoCs

    Writes to /etc/sudoers or a drop-in config, potentially granting passwordless root access to a user or process.

  • OS Credential Dumping 1 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Adversaries may attempt to dump credentials to use it in password cracking.

  • Checks system information (zLinux) 1 TTPs 1 IoCs

    Check system information on IBM zSystems which indicate if the system is a virtual machine.

  • Removes the immutable protection flag from a file 1 TTPs 1 IoCs

    Uses chattr to remove the immutable flag from a file, allowing previously write-protected files to be modified or deleted.

  • Writes file to system bin folder 1 IoCs
  • Checks CPU configuration 1 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Checks CPU information which indicate if the system is a virtual machine.

  • Reads CPU attributes 1 TTPs 8 IoCs
  • Enumerates kernel/hardware configuration 1 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Reads contents of /sys virtual filesystem to enumerate system information.

  • Reads runtime system information 15 IoCs

    Reads data from /proc virtual filesystem.

  • Writes file to tmp directory 3 IoCs

    Malware often drops required files in the /tmp directory.
