----[ 3.4 Hypothesis on AiTM attack against Microsoft users |
In the middle of 2022, an AiTM attack was detected and reported by |
Microsoft[#5] and Zscaler[#6]. The principal of the attack is the use of a |
web server that acts as a proxy between the legitimate login page and the |
victim. |
The victims were sent an email, inviting them to click on a HTML attachment. |
When opened, they would be redirected to the proxy via HTTPS. The proxy |
would then forward any request to the Microsoft server (re-encrypt the data |
via HTTPS). |
Once logged in, the proxy would record the session cookie and redirect the |
victim to the Microsoft server. |
The stolen cookie is valid and can be used by the attacker without any |
further MFA. |
The domain used for this campaign was websecuritynotice.com [#7]. |
While this exact domain was not found on this threat actor's system, a |
very similar one was used (notice the additional 's'): |
............................................................................ |
subject=CN=*.websecuritynotices.com |
............................................................................ |
Drop location: vps/etc/letsencrypt/live/websecuritynotices.com |
The Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs), the similarity of domain |
names, and post-exploitation activities (payment fraud, ...) show a strong |
link to Kimsuky. |
----[ 3.5 Is KIM Chinese? |
KIM uses Google to translates Korean into simplified Chinese. He does seem |
to understand some (very little) Korean without translating. |
KIM follows the Chinese public holiday schedule: May 31st - June 2nd was the |
Dragon Boat Festival. KIM was not working during this time whereas in North |
Korea this would have been a normal working day. |
However, using https://github.com/obsidianforensics/hindsight, his Chrome |
settings reveal that KIM is on "Korean Standard Time". |
We cautiously believe that KIM is chinese but fulfills the agenda of North |
Korea (hacking mostly South Korea) and China (hacking Taiwain) alike. |
----[ 3.6 Fun facts and laughables |
In September 2023, "KIM" attempted to purchase the domain name |
'nextforum-online.com' at namecheap.com. The payments could be made using |
Bitcoin, what could go wrong? |
A few days later, namecheap.com disabled the domain without given an |
explanation. When "KIM" asked to have it unblocked, namecheap.com requested |
the following: |
............................................................................ |
In order to verify the legitimacy of the registered domain(s), please |
provide us with the following information: |
* The purpose of the registration of the domain<br> |
* The documentation confirming the authorization to act on behalf of |
Microsoft or a confirmation that the domain(s) in question is not |
associated with it. |
............................................................................ |
=> LOL, afterall, the namecheap.com is not so bulletproof :) |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
Another fun-fact: In 2020, when websecuritynotice.com was used in a |
phishing campaign, the owner created several subdomains of realistic |
URLs for the phishing attacks: |
