DarkGate Malware Activity Spikes as Developer Rents Out Malware to Affiliates

A new malspam campaign has been observed deploying an off-the-shelf malware called DarkGate."The current spike in DarkGate malware activity is plausible given the fact that the developer of the malware has recently started to rent out the malware to a limited number of affiliates," Telekom Security said in a report published last week.

Nascent Malware Campaign Targets npm, PyPI, and RubyGems Developers

Python Malware: On the morning of September 3, 2023, our automated platform notified us of the first package in this campaign: kwxiaodian [..] This follows a common pattern we see across many early campaigns and one we witnessed a few weeks back [..] Obfuscated Javascript Packages: At roughly the same time, we received notifications about malicious package publications on npm. Rubygems Package: The Rubygems package follows similar patterns to both the PyPI and npm packages.

Uncovering Web Cache Deception: A Missed Vulnerability in the Most Unexpected Places

During the assessment of the target application, it was observed that the server had implemented restrictions to prevent Web Cache Deception attacks on API/Web endpoints that had session tokens or data in the response. Unfortunately, the same precautions were not implemented on the /404 page or any /nonexistingurl. We discovered that the response for any endpoint that doesnt exist contained PII information without any cache controls in place.

Whats in a name? [..] The .kids TLD is not alright

Cisco Talos successfully registered the domain name: your-dns-needs-immediate-attention.kids. Talos set up an internet server to log all activity related to this name, and immediately we received a barrage of HTTP requests from systems running Microsoft-s -System Center Configuration Manager.- [..] we were able to masquerade as a trusted system. Networks using .kids names could be tricked into trusting our system to relay internal mail, dictate configuration management settings, and more.

Inconsistencies in the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)

The goal of CVSS is to provide comparable scores across different evaluators. However, previous works indicate that CVSS might not reach this goal: If a vulnerability is evaluated by several analysts, their scores often differ. This raises the following questions: Are CVSS evaluations consistent? Which factors influence CVSS assessments? We systematically investigate these questions in an online survey with 196 CVSS users.
