Scranos: New Rapidly Evolving Rootkit-Enabled Spyware Discovered


scranos rootkit spyware
A new powerful rootkit-enabled spyware operation has been discovered wherein hackers are distributing multifunctional malware disguised as cracked software or trojanized app posing as legitimate software like video players, drivers and even anti-virus products. .

While the rootkit malware—dubbed Scranos—which was first discovered late last year, still appears to be a work in progress, it is continuously evolving, testing new components and regularly making an improvement to old components, which makes it a significant threat.

Scranos features a modular design that has already gained capabilities to steal login credentials and payment accounts from various popular services, exfiltrate browsing history and cookies, get YouTube subscribers, display ads, as well as download and execute any payload.

According to a 48 page in-depth report Bitdefender shared with The Hacker News prior to its release, the malware gains persistence on infected machines by installing a digitally-signed rootkit driver.

Researchers believe attackers obtained the valid digital code-signing certificate fraudulently, which was originally issued to Yun Yu Health Management Consulting (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. and has not been revoked at the time of writing.

"The rootkit registers a Shutdown callback to achieve persistence. At shutdown, the driver is written to disk, and a start-up service key is created in the Registry"
The researchers say.

Upon infection, the rootkit malware injects a downloader into a legitimate process which then communicates with the attacker-controlled Command-and-Control (C&C) server and downloads one or more payloads.

Here we have listed a few data and password-stealing payloads:

.- Password and Browsing History Stealing Payload

The main dropper steals browser cookies and login credentials from Google Chrome, Chromium, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Baidu Browser and Yandex. It can also steal cookies and login info from victims' accounts on Facebook, YouTube, Amazon, and Airbnb.

.- Extension Installer Payload

This payload installs adware extensions in Chrome and injects malicious or malware-laden ads on all webpages users visit. A few samples also found installing fake browser extensions, such as Chrome Filter, Fierce-tips and PDF Maker.

.- Steam Data Stealer Payload

This component steals and sends victims' Steam account credentials and information, including the list of installed apps and games, as well as hardcoded version, to the attacker's server.

Malware Interacts with Facebook and YouTube on Victims' Behalf

.- YouTube subscriber payload

This payload manipulates YouTube pages by running Chrome in debugging mode, instructing the browser to take various actions on a webpage like starting a video, muting a video, subscribing to a channel, and clicking ads.


.- Facebook Spammer Payload

Using collected cookies and other tokens, attackers can command malware to send Facebook friend requests to other users. It can also send private messages to the victim's Facebook friends with links to malicious Android APKs.

.- Android Adware App

Disguised as the legitimate "Accurate scanning of QR code" app available on Google Play Store, the malware app aggressively displays ads, tracks infected victims and uses same C&C server as the Windows malware.

Scranos Steals Payment Information from Popular Websites

Here's the list of DLLs contained in the main dropper:

.- Facebook DLL

This DLL extracts information about the user Facebook accounts including their payment accounts, their list of friends, and if they are an administrator of a page.

.- Amazon DLL

This DLL extracts information from the user’s Amazon account. Researchers even found a version of this DLL that has been designed to extract information from logged-in Airbnb accounts.

According to the telemetry gathered by Bitdefender researchers, Scranos is targeting users worldwide, but "it seems more prevalent in India, Romania, Brazil, France, Italy, and Indonesia."

The oldest sample of this malware traced back to November 2018, with a massive spike in December and January, but in March 2019, Scranos was started pushing other strains of malware, which researchers say is "a clear indicator that the network is now affiliated with third parties in pay-per install schemes."

What to Do If You're a Victim?
It should be noted that just installing the clean version of the software update over the malicious package would not remove the malware code from the infected systems.

So, in case you had downloaded the software between that period, you should immediately install antivirus software, with the latest up-to-date definitions, and scan your system for malware.

Beside this, affected users are also recommended to change their passwords for important social media and banking websites after cleaning the systems or from a separate device.

Popular Video Editing Software Website Hacked to Spread Banking Trojan


...free video editing and converting app ... nothing is free...
If you have downloaded the VSDC multimedia editing software between late February to late March this year, there are high chances that your computer has been infected with a banking trojan and an information stealer. .

The official website of the VSDC software — one of the most popular, free video editing and converting app with over 1.3 million monthly visitors — was hacked, unfortunately once again. .

According to a new report Dr. Web published today and shared with The Hacker News, hackers hijacked the VSDC website and replaced its software download links leading to malware versions, tricking visitors into installing dangerous Win32.Bolik.2 banking trojan and KPOT stealer.

Even more ironic is that despite being so popular among the multimedia editors, the VSDC website is running and offering software downloads over an insecure HTTP connection.

Though it's unclear how hackers this time managed to hijack the website, researchers revealed that the breach was reportedly never intended to infect all users, unlike last year attack.

Instead, Dr.Web researchers found a malicious JavaScript code on the VSDC website that was designed to check visitor's geolocation and replace download links only for visitors from the UK, USA, Canada, and Australia.

Insecure VSDC Website Was Distributing Malware for a Month

Insecure VSDC Website Was Distributing Malware for a Month
The malicious code planted on the website went unnoticed for almost a month—between 21 February 2019 and 23 March 2019—until researcher discovered it and notified VSDC developers of the threat.

Targeted users were served with a dangerous banking trojan designed to perform "web injections, traffic intercepts, key-logging and stealing information from different bank-client systems."

Moreover, the attackers changed the Win32.Bolik.2 trojan to KPOT Stealer, a variant of Trojan.PWS.Stealer, on March 22, which steals information from web browsers, Microsoft accounts, several messenger services and some other programs.

According to the researchers, at least 565 visitors downloaded VSDC software infected with the banking trojan, while 83 users has had their systems infected with the information stealer.

VSDC site has been hacked several times in the past years. Just last year, unknown hackers managed to gain administrative access to its website and replaced the download links, eventually its visitors' computers with the AZORult Stealer, X-Key Keylogger and the DarkVNC backdoor.

According to the researchers, at least 565 visitors downloaded VSDC software infected with the banking trojan, while 83 users has had their systems infected with the information stealer.
