Backdoor entdeckt: Angreifer kaperten schon hunderte Apache-Server

Backdoor entdeckt: Angreifer kaperten schon hunderte Apache-Server | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
Bösartige Angreifer kapern Apache-Webserver und leiten deren Besucher auf Schad-Websites um. Die Tarnung der Malware ist fast perfekt.

 

Eine Hintertür, die von Administratoren nur schwer bemerkt werden kann, sorgt dafür, dass Internet-Anfragen an Apache-Server nicht in Logs aufgenommen werden. Die gesendeten http-Anfragen, die in Wirklichkeit einen Trojaner steuern, sind nicht ersichtlich. Der Rest des Angriffs läuft im Speicher ab, Bugfixes gibt es noch nicht.

Die Malware Linux/Cdorked.A ist eine raffinierte Hintertür, die alles tut, um den Internetverkehr auf schädliche Webseiten umzuleiten, schreibt Sicherheitsanbieter Eset in einer aktuellen Warnung.   Der Schädling sei so gut, dass er laut eigener Analysen schon hunderte von Webservern unter seine Kontrolle gebracht habe.

Linux Rootkit Found Launching iFrame Injection Attacks

Linux Rootkit Found Launching iFrame Injection Attacks | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
The Linux root kit targets 64-bit Linux platforms and uses advanced techniques to hide itself, and infects the websites hosted on attacked HTTP server working to launch drive-by download attacks.

 

“It's an outstanding sample, not only because it targets 64-bit Linux platforms and uses advanced techniques to hide itself, but primarily because of the unusual functionality of infecting the websites hosted on attacked HTTP server - and therefore working as a part of drive-by download scenario,” commented Marta Janus, a Kaspersky Lab Expert who examined the rootkit sample.

 

===> “This rootkit, though it's still in the development stage, shows a new approach to the drive-by download schema and we can certainly expect more such malware in the future.” <===

Critical Flaw Threatens Millions of BIND Servers | threatpost

Critical Flaw Threatens Millions of BIND Servers | threatpost | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

There is a critical vulnerability in several current versions of the BIND nameserver software that could allow an attacker to knock vulnerable DNS servers offline or compromise other applications running on those machines. The bug is present in several versions of the ubiquitous BIND software and the maintainers of the application have released a patch for it ===> that they recommend users install as soon as possible. <===

 

===> The vulnerability is in BIND 9.7, 9.8, and 9.9 for Unix systems, but Windows versions are not affected. <===

 

The problem lies in the way that the software handles certain regular expressions, and an attacker who exploits the vulnerability could not only cause a denial-of-service condition on the server but also could potentially compromise other software on the machine.

Linux users targeted by password-stealing 'Wirenet' Trojan

Linux users targeted by password-stealing 'Wirenet' Trojan | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it

 

===> Malware writers are interested in Linux after all. <===

 

Russian security firm Dr Web has reported finding a shadowy Trojan that sets out to steal passwords on the open source platform as well as OS X.

 

Cross platform malware is rare but not unheard of, the usual technique being to hook into Java in search of victims using OS X.

Malware specifically designed to steal credentials from Linux systems is almost unheard of but might, on the basis of this new discovery, become a little less so in future.

 

"We do not have explicit evidence that it uses Java. To my knowledge it does not. This file was received from Virustotal," Dr Web analyst Igor Zdobnov told Techworld.
