Y'all remember #KmsdBot @larry has been working on? the cryptomining botnet that landed on one of our honeypots earlier this year?
Part three is live now, this time discussing attack traffic. The highlights:
🟠 we believe it's DDoS for hire
🔵 victims are mostly in Asia, North America, and Europe
🟠there's an interesting lack of activity in Russia and surrounding territories possibly pointing to the origins
🔵 two notable targets for FiveM and RedM, (gaming mods for GTA V and RDR2) which can tell us a lot about who its customers are.

Après une seule commande mal formatée, le bot s’est arrêté de transmettre des messages.
"Ce n’est pas tous les jours que l’on tombe sur un botnet que ses propres auteurs ont réussi à faire planter”, ironise Larry W. Cashdollar, chercheur chez Akamai.

I can't seem to stop re-reading this, it's just too good.
Botnet author failed to trap exceptions, then made a typo in commands sent from their C2, crashing their non-persistent bot daemon and so taking down their own #BotNet
Pure gold...

New #Linux #malware geared toward #embedded targets: #kmsdbot - https://www.akamai.com/blog/security-research/kmdsbot-the-attack-and-mine-malware
Here's the cool thing: If you are using https://github.com/chainguard-dev/osquery-defense-kit - you can already detect an attack without any updates. At a minimum, the following alerts should fire:
- unexpected-dev-entries
- unexpected-dev-executables
- unexpected-exec-dir
- sketchy-fetchers
- unexpected-executable-permissions
- unexpected-talkers
