Ingress-NGINX Admission Controller v1.11.1 - FD Injection to RCE

Ingress-NGINX 4.11.0 - Remote Code Execution (RCE)

A new Dero mining campaign is infecting containerized Linux environments through exposed Docker APIs. The attack uses two Golang malware components: 'nginx' for propagation and 'cloud' for mining. The 'nginx' malware scans for vulnerable Docker hosts, creates malicious containers, and compromises existing ones. It maintains persistence and spreads without a command-and-control server. The 'cloud' component is a modified DeroHE CLI miner with hardcoded wallet and node addresses. This campaign demonstrates the potential risks of insecurely published Docker APIs and the need for robust container security measures.

A new Dero mining campaign exploits insecurely published Docker APIs to spread through containerized Linux environments. The attack uses two Golang malware implants: 'nginx' for propagation and 'cloud' for cryptocurrency mining. The 'nginx' malware scans for vulnerable Docker APIs, creates malicious containers, and compromises existing ones. It maintains persistence and spreads without a command-and-control server. The 'cloud' miner is based on the open-source DeroHE CLI project, with hardcoded wallet and node addresses. This campaign differs from previous attacks on Kubernetes clusters by actively spreading and compromising more networks. The threat highlights the importance of securing containerized infrastructures and monitoring for malicious activities.
