reduce the size of the assembly, and improve loading time. Pruning Removes non-useful metadata to make the code harder to reverse-engineer. Trend Micro has provided detection for the malicious artifacts found in this investigation. There were numerous files, domains, and IP addresses that were involved in this attack. Both solutions protect users and businesses from threats by detecting malicious files and spammed messages and blocking all related malicious URLs. ![]() To protect systems against fileless threats that use spam emails as vectors, enterprises can use the Trend Micro endpoint solutions such as Trend Micro Smart Protection Suites and Worry-Free™ Business Security. Protect your network from spammed threats We have also discovered that Panda Stealer has an infection chain that uses the same fileless distribution method as the "Fair" variant of Phobos ransomware to carry out memory-based attacks, making it more difficult for security tools to spot. ![]() Threat actors may also augment their malware campaigns with specific features from Collector Stealer. The top C&C servers used by files that are similar to Panda Stealerīecause the cracked Collector Stealer builder is openly accessible online, cybercriminal groups and script kiddies alike can use it to create their own customized version of the stealer and C&C panel. ![]() Some of the aforementioned download sites are listed below: Some of the download sites were from Discord, containing files with names such as "build.exe," which indicates that threat actors may be using Discord to share the Panda Stealer build. More than 140 C&C servers (Table 1) and over 10 download sites were used by these samples. Another 14 victims were discovered from the logs of one of these servers.Īnother 264 files similar to Panda Stealer were found on VirusTotal. Further analysis of its C&C server leads to a login page for "熊猫Stealer," which translates to “Panda Stealer” (Figure 4), but more domains have been identified with the same login page (Figure 5). It drops files under %Temp% folder that stores stolen information under randomized file names, which are then sent to a command-and-control (C&C) server. It’s also capable of taking screenshots of the infected computer and exfiltrating data from browsers like cookies, passwords, and cards. Not only does it target cryptocurrency wallets, it can steal credentials from other applications such as NordVPN, Telegram, Discord, and Steam. Once installed, Panda Stealer can collect details like private keys and records of past transactions from its victim’s various digital currency wallets, including Dash, Bytecoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum. The loaded assembly, obfuscated with an Agile.NET obfuscator, hollows a legitimate MSBuild.exe process and replaces it with its payload: the hex-encoded Panda Stealer binary from another paste.ee URL. NET assembly within memory from a paste.ee URL. The CallByName export function in Visual Basic is used to call the load of a. To help users save development costs, you can now pause and resume any non-production cluster while retaining all the stored data.Decoding these PowerShell scripts revealed that they are used to access paste.ee URLs for easy implementation of fileless payloads. Cassandra 4.0 is now the default when deploying clusters using the Azure portal or CLI. Check out the important changes in Apache Cassandra 4.0 here. This version of Apache Cassandra is now GA for this service. Watch this space for more updates in the future! In this blog, we’ll give you an update on some of the latest features we’ve released for this service. The service allows you to spend more time focusing on developing your solution while keeping everything you love about Apache Cassandra, and gaining all the benefits of the cloud! Welcome to Azure Managed Instance for Apache Cassandra! A first-party service in Azure, built by Azure Cosmos DB engineers, hosting and maintaining pure open-source Apache Cassandra clusters. Are you self-hosting open-source Apache Cassandra on-premises or in the cloud? What if you could have patching, deployment, scaling, platform security, cloud infrastructure, and live site support taken care of for you… for not much more than the cost of running virtual machines in the public cloud?
