Wells Fargo "Important Documents" spam with a malicious ZIP file

This fake Wells Fargo spam comes with a malicious attachment:

Date:      Mon, 30 Sep 2013 11:54:15 -0600 [13:54:15 EDT]
From:      Bryon Faulkner [Bryon.Faulkner@wellsfargo.com]

confidential and are intended solely for the use of the person or entity to whom the
message was addressed. If you are not the intended recipient of this message, please be

The attached document is starts with "Documents_" and then has the first part of the recipient's email address as part of the filename. Or that's the way it is meant to work because in practice it will probably be a different recipient in the same domain. Inside is an executable file with the date encoded into the filename (in this case Documents_09302013.exe).

The executable file is (obviously) malware, and has a VirusTotal detection rate of just 3/48. Automated analysis [1] [2] [3] shows an attempted connection to the site demandtosupply.com on 84.22.177.37 (ioMart, UK) which is a server spotted in a similar attack a few weeks ago.

Unfortunately, where more than one domain on a server is compromised then it looks like the bad guys have complete control of the server and can do what they like. There are a number of legitimate sites (including one IT security company) on this box (listed below), so exercise caution if deciding to block them.

Something evil on 91.231.98.149 and boats.net

This injection attack [urlquery] on boats.net caught my attention, a nasty bit of injected code pointing to a (now suspended) domain called gamelikeboards.biz hosted on 91.231.98.149 (Neohost.net, Ukraine). Basically, the victim website has code injected pointing to [donotclick]gamelikeboards.biz/_cp/crone/ which cannot be anything good.

What do we know about gamelikeboards.biz? As luck would have it, the domain was suspended by the registrar, who also removed the Privacy Protection giving the following WHOIS details:

Registrant ID:             DI_29743100
Registrant Name:           Deni Kember
Registrant Organization:   N/A
Registrant Address1:       350 W 42nd St #37D
Registrant City:           New York
Registrant State/Province: NY
Registrant Postal Code:    10036
Registrant Country:        United States
Registrant Country Code:   US
Registrant Phone Number:   +1.6337362122
Registrant Email:          deni_kember658@ghanamail.com


I suspect that these details are fake. The address given is this rather nice $2.1 million apartment in New York, which I suspect has been chosen at random.

I can identify some other (almost definitely malicious) domains that are either on the same server or have been there recently:
eschewsramping.biz
gamelikeboards.biz
sixteenups.biz
sorelyzipmagics.biz
technicaltutoring.biz
zarazagorakakaxx1.org
zarazagorakakaxx2.com

The IP address is allocted as follows:

netname:        NEOHOST

The name "ILIUSHENKO VOLODYMYR OLEXANDROVUCH" is a weird translation of a name we would more commonly call Vladimir Iliushenko who is the administrator of Neohost. A look at 91.231.98.0/24 indicates a mix of spammy sites plus a number of local Russian and Ukranian sites that look legitimate. Google's prognosis of AS57311 isn't too bad.

I don't know what the payload is, but the IP address was also used in this recent malware attack. The IP and domains are definitely malicious, and I would recommend the following blocklist:

91.231.98.149
eschewsramping.biz
gamelikeboards.biz
sixteenups.biz
sorelyzipmagics.biz
technicaltutoring.biz
zarazagorakakaxx1.org

Added: it looks like this site has been compromised before [1] [2] [3]

Intuit spam / Invoice_3056472.zip

It's an email from a company I have no dealings with, with a ZIP file that contains an EXE file! What could possible go wrong? Oh..

Date:      Wed, 25 Sep 2013 09:37:48 -0600 [11:37:48 EDT]
From:      Lewis Muller [Lewis.Muller@intuit.com]

Your invoice is attached.

The attachment is Invoice_3056472.zip which in turn contains a malicious file Invoice_092513.exe which has a pretty low VirusTotal detection rate of just 4/48.

Automated analysis [1] [2] [3] [4] shows the usual sort of badness, including a call home to gidleybuilders.com on 78.157.201.219  (UK Dedicated Servers Ltd, UK) which we also saw being used in an attack last week. Two compromised domains in a week seems a bit more than a coincidence. For information only, the following legitimate domains are also on that same server:

I haven't seen AICPA themed spam for a long time, but this follows an established pattern. The link in the email goes to a legitimate hacked site and then on to a malware payload at [donotclick]www.aicpa.org.children-bicycle.net/news/aicpa-all.php (report here).. but only if the visitor is running Windows (more of which in a moment).

The domain children-bicycle.net is registered with fake WHOIS details and the pattern of the domain mark it out as belonging to the Amerika gang.
Administrative Name: Jennifer Horvath
Administrative Company: Jennifer Horvath
Administrative Address: 3499 Latitude Cove
Administrative Address: Milton
Administrative Address: GA
Administrative Address: 30004
Administrative Address: US
Administrative Email: mybigben56@yahoo.com
Administrative Tel: +1.7705008444
The payload is hosted on the following IP addresses (all also listed here):
24.111.103.183 (Midcontinent Media, US)
109.71.136.140 (OpWan, France)
184.82.233.29 (Network Operations Center, US)

As I mentioned, the code detects the visitor's OS and only sends the victim to the exploit kit if they are running Windows, others end up at the genuine aicpa.org website (click to enlarge).

6rf.net and something evil on 198.50.225.121, 85.25.108.10 and 178.33.208.211

Here are a couple of IPs serving exploit kits.. the case in question is a legitimate site that loads code from 6rf.net and this in turn loads an exploit kit from [donotclick]yandex.ru.sgtfnregsnet.ru and [donotclick]l451l.witnessvacant.biz.

The .biz domain in this case is hosted on 198.50.225.121 (OVH, Canada) along with subdomains of the following (more here):

witnessvacant.biz
objectiongigs.biz
prosecutorpro.biz

That IP hosts various exploit kits and is suballocated to a Russian customer:

CustName:       Private Customer
Address:        Private Residence
City:           Penziatki
StateProv:    
PostalCode:     430000
Country:        RU
RegDate:        2013-08-12
Updated:        2013-08-12
Ref:            http://whois.arin.net/rest/customer/C04667583


Those domains are also associated with some other OVH IPs of 178.33.208.211 and 46.105.166.99 (OVH, France). In both those cases, the OVH range is delegated to another Russian customer:
 organisation:   ORG-RL152-RIPE
org-name:       R5X.org ltd
org-type:       OTHER
address:        Krasnoselskaja 15-219
address:        346579 Moscow
address:        RU
abuse-mailbox:  abuse@r5x.org
mnt-ref:        OVH-MNT
mnt-by:         OVH-MNT
source:         RIPE # Filtered


Domains associated with the OVH France servers (and I would recommend blocking these) are:
caseagency.biz
chqqwyotlook.biz
cqcodoyogold.biz
flogdoyfohoqobl.biz
gyfowkdoylgoqc.biz
hearsayavailable.biz

subpoenaproject.biz
testimonyjobs.biz
thoqkgvqqgchot.biz
tohhohoqohwoy.biz
vqolqtqdoyodl.biz
witnessvacant.biz

But that's not the only infection that 6rf.net is punting, as there is another malicious domain of [donotclick]yandex.ru.sgtfnregsnet.ru in use (report here) hosted on 85.25.108.10 (Intergenia AG, Germany). There appears to be at least one other malicious domain on the same server (googlebot.ru) which is also serving up an exploit kit [1] [2] and an examination of the rest of the domains on that IP show nothing at all of value:

yandex.ru.sgtfnregsnet.ru
googlerobot.ru
google.directadvertstat.ru
nationalaustralia.org

It looks like other malware sites have been hosted on that IP in the past, so I would recommend blocking that too, giving this recommended blocklist:
46.105.166.99
85.25.108.10
178.33.208.211

Automated analysis [1] [2] [3] shows the usual sort of stuff plus network traffic to ta3online.org  on 108.168.164.202 (Softlayer, US) which is some sort of compromised legitimate site.



Blocking EXE-in-ZIP files at you network perimeter is absolutely the best way of avoid malware attacks like this.

Siga Resources Inc (SGAE) pump-and-dump spam

This pump-and-dump (P&D) spam for Siga Resources Inc (SGAE) follows a familiar pattern: it starts almost immediately after the close of trading on the Friday and the characteristics match several other recent spam runs which have been sent out by the Kelihos botnet. The spams look like this:

Are We having Fun Yet? THIS COMPANY IS UP TODAY ON LARGE VOLUME.

Trading Date: Monday, September 23th
Closed at: 0.015
Company: Siga Resources Inc.
Symbol traded: SG_AE
Target Price: 0.25

Sym: S-G_A E
Current Price: .02
Date: Monday, Sep 23th, 2013
Company: SIGA RESOURCES, CORP
4-Day Target: $.50

It Broadens Target Markets! Its Time to Buy Again...
Sample subject lines:
Subject:     Potential Breakout Stock
Subject:     Are you missing this?
Subject:     This Company looks ready to explode!
Subject:     Do Not Miss This One, You Will Be Bummed If You Do!

As I posted last week, observation of similar P&D spams is that the share price often collapses completely when the spamming stops.

Siga Resources in involved in small-scale minerals exploration. I'm not a financial analyst, but this firm looks almost dormant with zero income and effectively no cash in the bank. There has been no significant news for over a year. Siga's own 10-K filing for 2013 is extremely bleak and uses phrases such as "we have not generated any revenues since our formation on January 18, 2007" and "We require additional cash to continue operations. Such operations could take many years of exploration and would require expenditure of very substantial amounts of money, money we do not presently have and may never be able to raise. If we cannot raise it we will have to abandon our planned exploration activities and go out of business" and "We have one joint venture project on the Lucky Thirteen Claim. The joint venture has to date defaulted on payments to keep the ownership in the Lucky Thirteen Claim intact. Consequently, we are at risk of losing our interests in the Lucky Thirteen Claim entirely."

In short, there is no news at all that would make you want to buy this stock. And it is very important to realise that any information contained in the spam messages is merely a lie to boost the price, sent out by unknown parties.

The stock has not done well since it started, trading at around $0.55 to $0.60 until mid-2011 when it peaked at $2.40. It has since fallen to levels between $0.01 and $0.02.

On a typical day, share trades in SGAE are close to zero and rarely exceed 100,000 shares. But on Friday alone, over a million shares were traded in SGAE with 1.7 million shares traded in total across the week a prices ranges from $0.0288 to $0.015. I believe that the majority of those share trades were done by the spammers themselves taking up a position, with speculators adding a small volume on top.

Do not be tempted to buy SGAE shares on the back of these spammed-out solicitations. They are simply the actions of someone trying to offload almost worthless stock at an inflated price, and past history with these spamvertised stocks shows that there is a high risk that the price will collapse completely afterwards.

WhatsApp "3 New Voicemail(s)" spam and 219.235.1.127

I am indebted to Gary Warner for his analysis of this malware. But I can't resist having a poke at it myself. This malware is particularly cunning.

First of all, it starts with a WhatsApp-themed spam:

From:     WhatsApp Messaging Service
Date:     20 September 2013 19:36
Subject:     3 New Voicemail(s)

WhatsApp

You have a new voicemail!
Details
Time of Call: Sep-17 2013 04:05:07
Lenth of Call: 04 seconds

Play

*If you cannot play, move message to the "Inbox" folder.

2013 WhatsApp Inc 

I'm sort-of-vaguely aware of the existence of WhatsApp in the same way that I am vaguely aware of my wife's birthday. Here's the thing though.. click on the link on the PC and you get a fake Plesk 404 page (see this report). But click on it using an Android device and you get something very different.

So, armed with a random Android user agent string and WGET, I accessed the link (in this case [donotclick]www.organocontinuo.com/app.php?message=hADXwckiPdaYKjapSiWJyMR/guGMDz4l8/PCDGmSemg=) and ended up with a 2,735,848 byte file called WhatsApp.apk instead.

I didn't test this on an Android device or the ADK, but apparently it is possible that clicking the link installs the malware without asking on certain devices. The VirusTotal score for this .apk is a pretty health 21/48, but who runs anti-virus software on their Android? (If you aren't running AV, then try this).

So what does it do? Well, I've been using the Anubis sandbox to analyse Windows binaries for a while, but it can analyse the results of Android .apk files too, which is pretty darned cool. And this is what Anubis sees the malicious Android app doing.

Now, if you've read Gary's blog then you will know that this is an Android-based fake anti-virus application. Anubis says that the application's reported URL is defenderandroid.org but I am not sure if this is fake. However, the application certainly seems to send traffic to 219.235.1.127 (Shanghai QianWan Network, China) which is probably a darned good candidate for blocking (if you can). This IP has been spotted with PC-based fake AV programs before [1] [2] [3].

Up until April, the IP  219.235.1.127  hosted the domains w0580.com and juyuanfang.com, both registered to the same person using the email address sisibin@qq.com. I do not know if they are connected with the fake AV in any way.

Although mobile malware is getting more common, this is the first time that I have seen an attack like this. All smartphone and tablet users need to be aware of the very real risks of malware on thier devices and should take the appropriate steps to keep themselves safe.

Apple (AAPL) pump-and-dump spam

A pump and dump spam trying to move Apple (AAPL) stock? Really? I don't think a spam run is going to have much effect on a $473 share in a company worth $420bn.

From: lpskann@scminvest.com
Subject: This Company continues to surge, could new highs be ahead?

Apple has presented its new models - iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C,
which actually have not moved the providers of financing. But, we
got to hear about the confidential novelty, which is created in
Cupertino (the Main Office of the Apple Company). This specialty
will be of interest for everyone. Through just a year, everybody
will utilize it. Namely now the time is ripe to acquire the
Apple's securities. Their value will be quick increased!!!

#goodluckwiththat- here's another one:

From: h.strutzmann@raymondjames.com
Subject: This Company is Hot and Premarket analysis is ready

The new-developed models, i.e. iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C, have
been recommended by the Apple Company. Nevertheless the
products have not impressed the business sponsors.
Nevertheless, we have learned about the secret new product,
which is being worked out in Cupertino, the Main Office of
the Apple Company, which will be required by a wide
audience. (It is going to be put in use by everybody duting
the course of only one year). Now it's about time to take
possession of the shareholding of Apple, because quite soon
they will go up in value!
A third sample adds the stock ticker symbol:

Subject:      Advanced Trading Alert Notice

Apple Company (Nasdaq:AA PL) has shown its new-developed models - iPhone
5S and iPhone 5C, which indeed have been not very impressive for the
providers of capital. Still, we got the wind of the confidential new
product, which is created in Cupertino (the Principal Business Place of
the Apple). This new product will be needed by all the people. During
just one year, all the people will put in use the product. Presently it's
high time to obtain the Apple's securities. Their price will grow quite
soon.

And some more rather ungrammatical auto-generated examples..

The providers of financing have not been struck by the
new-developed models, i.e. iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C, which have
been introduced by the Apple. Still, we have got the wind of
the fact that in Cupertino (the Apple's Headquarter), a
confidential innovation is being created. The item will be
popular for all the people. It will be wide put on within just
a year. Right now is the perfect timing for acquiring the
shares of the Apple. Very soon these shares of stock will
increase high in value.

The financiers have not been struck by the new-developed products, i.e.
iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C, which have been shown by the Apple. But, we have
got to hear that in Cupertino (the Apple's Headquarter), a non-public
newcomer is being designed. The item will be required by all the people. It
will be wide put on in just a year. Now is the right time for purchasing
the equity of the Apple. Fast these shareholding will grow high in price.

iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C present the fresh items, which were shown by the
Apple Company (Nasdaq:AA_PL). Nevertheless, these products have little
effect on the providers of financing. All the same, we got to learned that
in Cupertino (where the Apple's Principal Business Office is located), an
undercover recent development gadget is being elaborated. Namely this
novelty will be of interest for everybody (the recent development will be
applied by all the people within the course of one year). The Apple's equity
shall be purchased right at the moment, as fast they will increase in price!

Presumably there is meant to be a malicious link or attachment, but there isn't. However, the bad guys will probably use the same template again with a WORKING payload, so please take care.

SpeedPacket, CookieBomb and something evil on 37.58.73.42, 95.156.228.69 and 195.210.43.42

A few days ago the Internet Storm Center raised a question about activity on 37.58.73.42 (Softlayer, Netherlands / Techpreneurs India Pvt Ltd, India), 95.156.228.69 (Game Company, Germany) and 195.210.43.42 (Syntis, France).

I hadn't seen the attack in question until today with this injection attack on a legitimate site, using a Cookie Bomb script [1] [2] to send victims to a site [donotclick]11p1rjqaahmp7asqbeqd5fx.bouwslim.be via an intermediary hacked site. The malicious domain is hosted on 95.156.228.69 which forms part of this cluster of three servers.

Reverse DNS indicates tens of thousands of malicious sites, mostly subdomains of domains hijacked from customers of a Belgian company called SpeedPacket, but there are also some other malicious .ru domains some of which I have spotted before on a server in Romania.

The SpeedPacket hijacks are interesting. They have been going on since at least July, and it appears that they are being hijacked in alphabetical order. From my perspective, it looks like one domain gets hijacked, used for evil purposes.. and then it either gets cleaned up by SpeedPacket, or the bad guys are returning it once they have used it. I've never seen anything like that before. For example, using the data from VirusTotal, we can map it out as follows:

At the time of writing, only the domain bouwslim.be seems to be resolving, the rest appear to have been cleaned up.

These domains [pastebin] all appear to have been hijacked from SpeedPacket's customers and have been used in CookieBomb attacks. We can count 138 SpeedPacket domains that have been abused so far.

So, how may domains do SpeedPacket look after? We traced back the hijacked domains to their originating servers and found these 2318 domains [pastebin]. 138 out of 2318 doesn't sound too bad, until you realise that the hijack is happening alphabetically and bouwslim.be is the 316th domain on the list.. so, from that date it looks like a shocking 138/316 (44%) of SpeedPacket domains have been compromised so far.

As I said, there are also some other domains hosted on these servers including some malicious .ru domains. I don't recommend that you block the SpeedPacket customers listed, simply because blocking the IPs is simpler and less likely to block a legitimate site.. but still, if it is your network then it is your rules that apply.

The link in the email goes through a legitimate hacked site and then runs one of the following three scripts:
[donotclick]die-web-familie.homepage.t-online.de/quasar/monte.js
[donotclick]dim-kalogeras-ka-lar.schools.ac.cy/initials/casanovas.js
[donotclick]ade-data.com/exuded/midyear.js

These then lead to a malware payload at [donotclick]rockims.com/topic/seconds-exist-foot.php which is a hijacked GoDaddy domain hosted on 192.81.133.143 (Linode, US) along with quite a few other hijacked domains (listed in italics below).
