Threats Tagged 'shoe rack'

SHOE RACK is a sophisticated malware developed in Go 1.18, designed for post-exploitation activities. It connects to a custom SSH server at a hardcoded C2 URL, enabling remote interaction with the victim device. The malware utilizes DNS-over-HTTPS to locate its C2 server's IP address and has been observed targeting FortiGate 100D series firewalls. SHOE RACK supports various channel types, including 'session' and a non-standard 'jump' type, allowing for reverse-SSH tunneling. It also offers TCP tunneling capabilities, enabling actors to pivot into LAN networks after compromising perimeter devices. While some operational security measures are implemented, the malware's network communications are distinctive due to its impersonation of an outdated SSH version.

UMBRELLA STAND is a sophisticated malware targeting FortiGate 100D series firewalls produced by Fortinet. It contains remote shell execution functionality, configurable beacon frequency, and AES-encrypted C2 communications. The malware uses fake TLS on port 443 to beacon to its C2 server and has the ability to run shell commands. It employs various defense evasion techniques such as hidden folders, generic filenames, and string encryption. UMBRELLA STAND also has persistence mechanisms through reboot hooking and ldpreload. Associated tooling includes BusyBox, nbtscan, tcpdump, and openLDAP. The malware demonstrates operational security considerations and shares similarities with previously reported COATHANGER malware.
