Kategorie: Trojan-PSW
Trojan-PSW-Programme dienen dazu, Benutzerkontoinformationen wie Logins und Kennwörter von infizierten Computern zu stehlen. PSW ist eine Abkürzung für Password Stealing Ware.Beim Start durchsucht ein PSW-Trojaner Systemdateien, die eine Reihe von vertraulichen Daten oder die Registrierung speichern. Wenn solche Daten gefunden werden, sendet der Trojaner sie an ihren "Master". E-Mail, FTP, das Web (einschließlich Daten in einer Anfrage) oder andere Methoden können verwendet werden, um die gestohlenen Daten zu übertragen.
Einige solcher Trojaner stehlen auch Registrierungsinformationen für bestimmte Softwareprogramme.

Tactics and Techniques: Mitre*
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.

Process Injection: 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.
Process hollowing is commonly performed by creating a process in a suspended state then unmapping/hollowing its memory, which can then be replaced with malicious code. A victim process can be created with native Windows API calls such as
This is very similar to Thread Local Storage but creates a new process rather than targeting an existing process. This behavior will likely not result in elevated privileges since the injected process was spawned from (and thus inherits the security context) of the injecting process. However, execution via process hollowing may also evade detection from security products since the execution is masked under a legitimate process.

CreateProcess, which includes a flag to suspend the processes primary thread. At this point the process can be unmapped using APIs calls such as ZwUnmapViewOfSection or NtUnmapViewOfSection before being written to, realigned to the injected code, and resumed via VirtualAllocEx, WriteProcessMemory, SetThreadContext, then ResumeThread respectively.(Citation: Leitch Hollowing)(Citation: Elastic Process Injection July 2017)This is very similar to Thread Local Storage but creates a new process rather than targeting an existing process.
