Kaspersky Threats — Backdoor.MSIL.AsyncRat.la

Třída: Backdoor

Zadní stěny jsou navrženy tak, aby poskytovaly škodlivým uživatelům vzdálený přístup k infikovanému počítači. Pokud jde o funkčnost, Backdoors jsou podobné mnoha administrativním systémům navrženým a distribuovaným vývojáři softwaru.

Tyto typy škodlivých programů umožňují dělat cokoliv, co autor chce na napadeném počítači: odesílat a přijímat soubory, spouštět soubory nebo je smazat, zobrazovat zprávy, mazat data, restartovat počítač atd.

Programy v této kategorii se často používají k sjednocení skupiny obětí počítačů a vytvoření sítě botnet nebo zombie. To dává zlomyslným uživatelům centralizovanou kontrolu nad armádou infikovaných počítačů, které pak mohou být použity pro kriminální účely.

Existuje také skupina Backdoors, která je schopna šíření prostřednictvím sítí a infikování jiných počítačů jako Net-Worms. Rozdíl je v tom, že takové Backdoors se nerozšířují automaticky (jak to dělá Net-Worms), ale pouze na speciální "příkaz" od škodlivého uživatele, který je ovládá.

Platfoma: MSIL

Společný středně pokročilý jazyk (dříve známý jako Microsoft Intermediate Language nebo MSIL) je pokročilý jazyk vyvinutý společností Microsoft pro rozhraní .NET Framework. Kód CIL je generován všemi kompilátory Microsoft .NET v aplikaci Microsoft Visual Studio (Visual Basic .NET, Visual C ++, Visual C # a další).

Tactics and Techniques: Mitre*

TA0002

Execution

The adversary is trying to run malicious code. Execution consists of techniques that result in adversary-controlled code running on a local or remote system. Techniques that run malicious code are often paired with techniques from all other tactics to achieve broader goals, like exploring a network or stealing data. For example, an adversary might use a remote access tool to run a PowerShell script that does Remote System Discovery.

T1204.002

Malicious File

An adversary may rely upon a user opening a malicious file in order to gain execution. Users may be subjected to social engineering to get them to open a file that will lead to code execution. This user action will typically be observed as follow-on behavior from Spearphishing Attachment. Adversaries may use several types of files that require a user to execute them, including .doc, .pdf, .xls, .rtf, .scr, .exe, .lnk, .pif, .cpl, and .reg.

TA0003

Persistence

The adversary is trying to maintain their foothold. Persistence consists of techniques that adversaries use to keep access to systems across restarts, changed credentials, and other interruptions that could cut off their access. Techniques used for persistence include any access, action, or configuration changes that let them maintain their foothold on systems, such as replacing or hijacking legitimate code or adding startup code.

T1547.001

Registry Run Keys / Startup Folder

Adversaries may achieve persistence by adding a program to a startup folder or referencing it with a Registry run key. Adding an entry to the "run keys" in the Registry or startup folder will cause the program referenced to be executed when a user logs in. These programs will be executed under the context of the user and will have the account's associated permissions level.

TA0004

Privilege Escalation

The adversary is trying to gain higher-level permissions. Privilege Escalation consists of techniques that adversaries use to gain higher-level permissions on a system or network. Adversaries can often enter and explore a network with unprivileged access but require elevated permissions to follow through on their objectives. Common approaches are to take advantage of system weaknesses, misconfigurations, and vulnerabilities. Examples of elevated access include: SYSTEM/root level, local administrator, user account with admin-like access, user accounts with access to specific system or perform specific function. These techniques often overlap with Persistence techniques, as OS features that let an adversary persist can execute in an elevated context.

T1547.001

Registry Run Keys / Startup Folder

TA0005

Defense Evasion

The adversary is trying to avoid being detected. Defense Evasion consists of techniques that adversaries use to avoid detection throughout their compromise. Techniques used for defense evasion include uninstalling/disabling security software or obfuscating/encrypting data and scripts. Adversaries also leverage and abuse trusted processes to hide and masquerade their malware. Other tactics' techniques are cross-listed here when those techniques include the added benefit of subverting defenses.

T1055.012

Process Hollowing

Adversaries may inject malicious code into suspended and hollowed processes in order to evade process-based defenses. Process hollowing is a method of executing arbitrary code in the address space of a separate live process.

T1112

Modify Registry

Adversaries may interact with the Windows Registry as part of a variety of other techniques to aid in defense evasion, persistence, and execution.

TA0011

Command and Control

The adversary is trying to communicate with compromised systems to control them. Command and Control consists of techniques that adversaries may use to communicate with systems under their control within a victim network. Adversaries commonly attempt to mimic normal, expected traffic to avoid detection. There are many ways an adversary can establish command and control with various levels of stealth depending on the victim's network structure and defenses.

T1071.001

Web Protocols

Adversaries may communicate using application layer protocols associated with web traffic to avoid detection/network filtering by blending in with existing traffic. Commands to the remote system, and often the results of those commands, will be embedded within the protocol traffic between the client and server.

T1102

Web Service

Adversaries may use an existing, legitimate external Web service as a means for relaying data to/from a compromised system. Popular websites, cloud services, and social media acting as a mechanism for C2 may give a significant amount of cover due to the likelihood that hosts within a network are already communicating with them prior to a compromise. Using common services, such as those offered by Google, Microsoft, or Twitter, makes it easier for adversaries to hide in expected noise. Web service providers commonly use SSL/TLS encryption, giving adversaries an added level of protection.
