Something evil on 109.123.66.30

109.123.66.30 (UK2.NET, UK) hosts several domains containing the Blackhole Exploit Kit (example here). The domains in user are (mostly) legitimate hacked domains, but there are a couple of odd things here.

Most of the malicious domains have a format like this: 700ff4ad03c655cb11919113011611137102708d4fb6daf0e74bea4aa5e8f9f.darkhands.com - in this case darkhands.com is a legitimate domain registered to an individual in Australia, but it has been hacked to create a who load of malicious subdomains, hosted on another server from www.darkhands.com.

In fact, almost all the domains are registered to Australians, but the key thing is in that all of those cases the main domains are hosted by OrionVM in Australia, with the main domains hosted in the 49.156.18.0/24 block. Update: it seems that a single customer was compromised and the OrionVM issue has been resolved.

So how can the main (legitimate) sites be hosted in 49.156.18.0/24, but the malicious subdomains are hosted on a completely different network in the UK. I suspect that there is a compromise of some sort at OrionVM which has allowed the DNS records to be change (it should be noted that these domains used several different registrars).

Another oddity is that these hijacked domains only go from A to I alphabetically, which indicates that there might be some other malicious servers in this same group. The domains are:

00.co.kr
07drama.com
1001mg.com
1sim.net
20cargo.com
2ndi.com
2seul.net
3gendata.co.kr

giftsbiweb.com.au
goddessmassage.com.au
goldcoastnorth.org.au
goldcoastpacifictours.com.au
greyfoxjumps.com
grubisaguitars.com
img.or.kr

Also hosted on 109.123.66.30 are some malicious .in domains that were previously on 87.229.26.138 (see here):
gguwvn.in
gmvgyx.in
humswz.in
jlqrnp.in
krvrkh.in
lupszm.in
nwujgl.in
onylkp.in
pmkvyh.in
sirrpk.in
tmthzz.in
ukokqz.in
ymjjjm.in
yxrkyu.in
zjmnwv.in
znztip.in
zpjhjv.in

It looks like there are some legitimate sites on the same server, but blocking 109.123.66.30 is probably a good idea.

As for those subdomains I wrote about, well here are some examples (there are probably many more!)

Cheeky exploit kit on avirasecureserver.com

What is avirasecureserver.com? Well, it's not Avira that's for sure.. it is in fact a server for the Blackhole Exploit Kit.

Trevissome Park is a small business park in Cornwall, there certainly isn't a building with over 1000 apartments there, so we can assume that "Apt" is a euphemism for a post box. There's also no company in the UK called QHoster Ltd. In fact, if we check the QHoster.com domain we can see that it is a Bulgarian firm:

    QHoster Ltd.
    Dimitar Kolev        (domains@qhoster.net)
    27 Nikola D. Petkov Str.
    Sevlievo
    Gabrovo,5400
    BG
    Tel. +359.898547122
    Fax. +359.67535954

QHoster has an IP block of 82.145.57.0/25 suballocated to it. A quick poke around indicates not much of value in this range, you may want to consider blocking the /25 as a precaution.

Kenyan Judiciary (judiciary.go.ke) hacked to serve malware

The Judiciary of the Republic of Kenya has a mission to deliver justice fairly, impartially and expeditiously, promote equal access to justice, and advance local jurispudence by upholding the rule of law. Unfortunately, it has also been hacked to serve up malware.

The site has been compromised to serve up an exploit kit being promoted by spam email. There's a redirector at [donotclick]www.judiciary.go.ke/wlc.htm attempting to redirect visitors to [donotclick]dfudont.ru:8080/forum/links/column.php where there's a nasty exploit kit.

Of course, most visitors to the judiciary.go.ke site won't see that particular exploit. But if someone can create an arbitrary HTML page on that server, then they pretty much have the run of the whole thing and they can do what they like. So the question might be.. what else has been compromised? Hmm.

"A.R.T. Logistics" fake job offer

There may be various genuine companies in the world with a name similar to "A.R.T. Logistics Industrial & Trading Ltd", but this job offer does not come from a genuine company. Instead it is trying to recruit people for money laundering ("money mule") jobs and parcel reshipping scams (a way of laundering stolen goods). Note that the scammers aren't even consistent in the way they name the company.

Malware sites to block 14/1/13

A couple of interesting posts over at Malware Must Die!  showed some significant nastiness on a few IP ranges you might want to block. The IPs mentioned are:

91.243.115.140 (Aztek Ltd, Russia)
46.166.169.238 (Santrex, Netherlands)
62.76.184.93 (IT House / Clodo-Cloud, Russia)

I'll list the sites on these domains at the end of the post for readability. But in these cases, blocking just the single IPs is not enough as they reside in pretty evil netblocks which should be blocked altogether.

91.243.115.0/24 (Aztek Ltd) is part of this large collection of malware hosts. Perhaps not all sites in the network are malicious, but certainly a lot of them are. I would err on the side of caution and block access to all sites in this /24, legitimate or not.

46.166.169.0/24 (Santrex) is another horrible network. According to Google, out of 4604 tested sites in this block, at least 3201 (70%) are involved in malware distribution. There may be legitimate sites in this /24, but since customer service is allegedly atrocious then it's hard to see why they would stick around. Again, blocking this /24 is probably prudent.

62.76.184.0/21 (IT House / Clodo-Cloud) is quite a large range to block, but I have seen many malicious sites in this range, and like Aztek it is part of this large network of malware hosts and it has a poor reputation. This is only a part of this netblock, if you want to go further you could consider blocking 62.76.160.0/19.
