Conference Management Software 3.5.1 SQL Injection

Two different North Korean nation-state actors have been linked to a cyber intrusion against the major Russian missile engineering company NPO Mashinostroyeniya.
Cybersecurity firm SentinelOne said it identified "two instances of North Korea related compromise of sensitive internal IT infrastructure," including a case of an email server compromise and the deployment of a Windows backdoor dubbed

Two different North Korean nation-state actors have been linked to a cyber intrusion against the major Russian missile engineering company NPO Mashinostroyeniya.

Cybersecurity firm SentinelOne said it identified "two instances of North Korea related compromise of sensitive internal IT infrastructure," including a case of an email server compromise and the deployment of a Windows backdoor dubbed OpenCarrot.

The breach of the Linux email server has been attributed to ScarCruft. OpenCarrot, on the other hand, is a known implant previously identified as used by the Lazarus Group. The attacks were flagged in mid-May 2022.

A rocket design bureau based in Reutov, NPO Mashinostroyeniya was sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury Department in July 2014 in connection to "Russia's continued attempts to destabilize eastern Ukraine and its ongoing occupation of Crimea."

While both ScarCruft (aka APT37) and the Lazarus Group are affiliated to North Korea, it's worth noting that the former is overseen by the Ministry of State Security (MSS). Lazarus Group is part of Lab 110, which is a constituent of the Reconnaissance General Bureau (RGB), the country's primary foreign intelligence service.

The development marks a rare convergence where two North Korea-based independent threat activity clusters have targeted the same entity, indicating a "highly desirable strategic espionage mission" that could benefit its controversial missile program.

OpenCarrot is implemented as Windows dynamic-link library (DLL) and supports over 25 commands to conduct reconnaissance, manipulate file systems and processes, and manage several communication mechanisms.

"With a wide range of supported functionality, OpenCarrot enables full compromise of infected machines, as well as the coordination of multiple infections across a local network," security researchers Tom Hegel and Aleksandar Milenkoski said.

The exact method used to breach the email server remains unknown, although the group is known to rely on social engineering to phish victims and deliver backdoors like RokRat.

What's more, a closer inspection of the attack infrastructure has revealed two domains centos-packages\[.\]com and redhat-packages\[.\]com, which bears similarities to the names of the threat actors used in the JumpCloud hack in June 2023.

"This incident stands as a compelling illustration of North Korea's proactive measures to covertly advance their missile development objectives, as evidenced by their direct compromise of a Russian Defense-Industrial Base (DIB) organization," the researchers said.

North Korean Hackers Targets Russian Missile Engineering Firm

By Waqas
North Korean hackers from OpenCarrot and Lazarus breached NPO Mashinostroyeniya, a major Russian missile developer, for at least five months last year.
This is a post from HackRead.com Read the original post: Elite North Korean Hackers Breach Russian Missile Developer

*   **North Korean hackers breached a major Russian missile developer, NPO Mashinostroyeniya, for at least five months.**
*   **Cyber-espionage teams ScarCruft and Lazarus installed stealthy digital backdoors into NPO Mash’s systems.**
*   **It remains unclear if data was stolen or linked to North Korea’s ballistic missile program developments.**
*   **Experts warn that North Korea targets even its allies to acquire critical technologies.**
*   **The breach exposes vulnerabilities in cybersecurity and raises concerns about sensitive technology transfers.**

It has been uncovered that an elite group of North Korean hackers successfully breached the computer networks of a major Russian missile developer for an extended period last year.

The evidence, reviewed by Reuters and analyzed by security researchers, points to cyber-espionage teams associated with the North Korean government, namely ScarCruft (aka APT37, InkySquid, Reaper, and Ricochet Chollima). The same group was also reported to have used the Dolphin Backdoor against South Korea in December 2022.

The researchers also noted tracks of the infamous North Korean state-backed group, Lazarus, in these attacks. This was identified after researchers noted the presence of OpenCarrot Windows OS backdoor. The backdoor is known to be used by the Lazarus group.

These hackers discreetly installed stealthy backdoors into systems at NPO Mashinostroyeniya, commonly referred to as NPO Mash, a prominent rocket design bureau located in Reutov, on the outskirts of Moscow.

Reuters’ investigation did not ascertain whether any data was taken during the intrusion or what information might have been accessed. Nonetheless, it is noteworthy that in the months following the breaches, North Korea declared significant advancements in its banned ballistic missile program, raising suspicions about a possible connection to the breach.

Technical data reveals that the intrusion began approximately in late 2021 and persisted until May 2022 when the company’s IT engineers, as per internal communications reviewed by Reuters, detected the hackers’ activities.

Tom Hegel, a security researcher with US cybersecurity firm SentinelOne, who first uncovered the compromise, highlighted the importance of these findings, providing rare insight into clandestine cyber operations that often elude public scrutiny. Hegel’s team stumbled upon the hack when an NPO Mash IT staffer inadvertently leaked the company’s internal communications while attempting to investigate the North Korean attack by uploading evidence to a private cybersecurity research portal.

> With a high level of confidence, we attribute this intrusion to threat actors independently associated with North Korea. Based on our assessment, this incident stands as a compelling illustration of North Korea’s proactive measures to covertly advance their missile development objectives, as evidenced by their direct compromise of a Russian Defense-Industrial Base (DIB) organization.
> 
> Tom Hegel – SentinelOne

Two independent computer security experts, Nicholas Weaver and Matt Tait, verified the exposed email content’s authenticity by cross-referencing cryptographic signatures with a set of keys controlled by NPO Mash. SentinelOne expressed confidence that North Korea was responsible for the hack, as the cyberspies reused previously known malware and malicious infrastructure utilized in other intrusions.

The information potentially accessed by North Korean hackers includes details about NPO Mash’s hypersonic missile, “Zircon,” which Russian President Vladimir Putin had praised as a promising product capable of reaching speeds around nine times that of sound.

However, missile expert Markus Schiller, who has researched foreign aid to North Korea’s missile program, downplayed the immediate impact of obtaining plans for the Zircon. Schiller asserted that merely possessing drawings wouldn’t be sufficient to replicate the missile’s capabilities, as the process involves more complexities than what appears on paper.

Nevertheless, NPO Mash’s role as a leading Russian missile designer and producer makes it a highly valuable target. As the company’s advancements could have strategic implications, the breach raises concerns about the potential transfer of sensitive missile-related technology to North Korea.

The incident underscores the isolated nation’s willingness to target even its allies, as evidenced by the breach of Russia’s defence technologies. NPO Mashinostroyeniya has played a crucial role in developing hypersonic missiles, satellite technologies, and newer generation ballistic armaments—areas of immense interest to North Korea in its pursuit of an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) capable of striking the mainland United States.

Elite North Korean Hackers Breach Russian Missile Developer

Cisco Talos discovered an unknown threat actor, seemingly of Vietnamese origin, conducting a ransomware operation that began at least as early as June 4, 2023 with customized Yashma ransomware.

Monday, August 7, 2023 08:08

*   Cisco Talos discovered an unknown threat actor, seemingly of Vietnamese origin, conducting a ransomware operation that began at least as early as June 4, 2023.
*   This ongoing attack uses a variant of the Yashma ransomware likely to target multiple geographic areas by mimicking WannaCry characteristics.
*   The threat actor uses an uncommon technique to deliver the ransom note. Instead of embedding the ransom note strings in the binary, they download the ransom note from the actor-controlled GitHub repository by executing an embedded batch file.

**Threat actor analysis**

Talos assesses with high confidence that this threat actor is targeting victims in English-speaking countries, Bulgaria, China and Vietnam, as the actor’s GitHub account, “nguyenvietphat,” has ransomware notes written in these countries’ languages. The presence of an English version could indicate the actor intends to target a wide range of geographic areas.

Talos assesses with moderate confidence that the threat actor may be of Vietnamese origin because their GitHub account name and email contact on the ransomware notes spoofs a legitimate Vietnamese organization’s name. The ransom note also asks victims to contact them between 7 and 11 p.m. UTC+7, which overlaps with Vietnam’s time zone. We also spotted a slight difference in the Vietnamese language ransom note, as it starts with, “Sorry, your file is encrypted!” in contrast to the others that begin with, “Oops, your files are encrypted!” By saying “sorry,” the threat actor may have intended to show a heightened sensitivity toward victims in Vietnam, which could indicate the attackers themselves are Vietnamese.

We further assess the threat actor began this campaign around June 4, 2023, because they joined GitHub and created a public repository called “Ransomware” on that date, which overlaps with the compilation date of the ransomware binary. In the repository, they added ransom note text files in five languages: English, Bulgarian, Vietnamese, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.

**Ransom note**

The actor demands the ransom payment in Bitcoins to the wallet address “bc1qtd4qv0wmgtu2rdr0wr8tka2jg44cgmz04z5mc7” and they double the ransomware price if the victim fails to pay within three days, according to our ransomware note analysis. The actor has an email address, “nguyenvietphat\[.\]n\[at\]gmail\[.\]com,” for the victims to contact them. At the time of our analysis, we had not observed any Bitcoin in the wallet, and the ransom note did not specify an amount, indicating the ransomware operation might still be in a nascent stage.

The ransom note text resembles the well-known WannaCry ransom note, possibly to obfuscate the threat actor’s identity and confuse incident responders.

Ransom notes samples of the Yashma variant.

After encryption, the Yashma ransomware variant sets the wallpaper on the victim’s machine, as seen in the image below. It seems that the operator downloaded this picture from www\[.\]FXXZ\[.\]com and embedded it in the Yashma variant binary. The wallpaper set by the Yashma variant in the victim’s machine also mimics the WannaCry ransomware.

**Customized Yashma ransomware variant**

The actor deployed a variant of Yashma ransomware, which they compiled on June 4, 2023.  Yashma is a 32-bit executable written in .Net and a rebranded version of Chaos ransomware V5, which appeared in May 2022. In this variant, most of Yashma’s features remained unchanged and have been described by the security researchers at Blackberry, with the exception of a few notable modifications.

Usually, ransomware stores the ransom note text as strings in the binary. However, this variant of Yashma executes an embedded batch file, which has the commands to download the ransom note from the actor-controlled GitHub repository. This modification evades endpoint detection solutions and anti-virus software, which usually detect embedded ransom note strings in the binary.

Contents of the batch file.

Earlier versions of the Yashma ransomware established persistence on the victim machine in the Run registry key and by dropping a Windows shortcut file pointing to the ransomware executable path in the startup folder. The variant we observed also established persistence in the Run registry key. Still, it was modified to create a “.url” bookmark file in the startup folder that points to the dropped executable located at “%AppData%\\Roaming\\svchost.exe”.

A function that creates the bookmark file.

One notable feature the threat actor chose to keep in this variant is Yashma’s anti-recovery capability. After encrypting a file, the ransomware wipes the contents of the original unencrypted files, writes a single character “?” and then deletes the file. This technique makes it more challenging for incident responders and forensic analysts to recover the deleted files from the victim’s hard drive.

The code snippet shows the anti-recovery feature of the ransomware.
