WebLogic Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities (CVE-2020-14625, CVE-2020-14644, CVE-2020-14645, CVE-2020-14687) Threat Alert
agosto 7, 2020
Overview
On July 15, 2020, Beijing time, Oracle released a Critical Patch Update (CPU) for July 2020 that fixes 443 vulnerabilities of different risk levels.
The WebLogic Server Core component is prone to four severe vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 9.8, which are assigned CVE-2020-14625, CVE-2020-14644, CVE-2020-14645, and CVE-2020-14687 respectively.
These vulnerabilities are related to T3 and IIOP protocols and allow unauthenticated attackers to execute code remotely via the Internet.
T3 and IIOP protocols are used to transmit data between WebLogic and other Java programs. The default WebLogic installation automatically enables the console, which, in turn, enables the T3 protocol by default. IIOP allows access to remote objects in the form of Java interfaces, which is enabled by default.

In the reconnaissance phase, a bad actor can determine which targets to attack through batch scanning. Such scanning is often focused on user names and passwords for access to and vulnerabilities in devices. Besides, an attacker may try to compromise targets by delivering malicious baits to their email addresses collected previously.

Cryptojacking Malware
In 2019, the pickup in cryptocurrency prices led to an increase in the number of cryptojacking malware families. Of all these families, Monero mining trojans still took a dominant place. EternalBlue and weak password cracking were the major methods for ransomware families to compromise large enterprises in financial and telecom sectors and spread themselves. At the same time, to defeat detection devices, cryptojacking malware families have been constantly upgraded to evolve into more variants that feature better stealth and a modular design.

julho 28, 2020
Executive Summary
In recent years, more and more protocols that may cause UDP reflection attacks have come into our sight, such as CoAP[1], Ubiquiti[2], WS-Discovery[3], OpenVPN[4], and a certain DVR protocol[5]. These attack patterns are different from DNS, SSDP, NTP, Memcached, and other reflection attacks that are well familiar to us, posing certain challenges to distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack protection.
In June 2020, JSOF, an Israel-based cybersecurity company, revealed that 0-day vulnerabilities in the Treck TCP/IP protocol stack might affect hundreds of millions of devices globally. After analyzing the published whitepapers, we find that the devices produced by Digi, one of the affected vendors, use the Advanced Digi Discovery Protocol (ADDP) for device discovery. ADDP uses 224.0.5.128 as a multicast address and 2362 as its port. But during implementation, ADDP also supports unicast. Besides, it is possible to spoof source IP addresses of UDP packets. Therefore, Digi devices are at risk of being used for reflection attacks.

Botnets can pose a variety of cyber threats. NSFOCUS Security Labs has been focused on the capture, track, and study of botnet-related threats. In 2019, the Labs further upgraded its capturing and tracking techniques and capabilities and expanded its scope of interest to cover more diverse threats, including cryptojacking, ransomware attacks, data theft by banking Trojans, and adware bundling. Besides, the Labs took up research on mobile platforms, which were quite a mess in terms of security.
