Fake eFax spam uses hacked Sharepoint to spread malware

This fake fax leads to a malicious ZIP file:

Subject:    eFax message from "61 2 97855412" - 2 page(s)

The link in the email goes to a hacked Sharepoint account, in this case:

https://supremeselfstorage-my.sharepoint.com/personal/andrew_supremeselfstorage_com_au/_layouts/15/guestaccess.aspx?guestaccesstoken=GTQPc%2brKLAsKHba4nXtvl0hXrBsUmCUxoYGuu9msk0U%3d&docid=0c4b96dfd3319496a8feb1a56d88de679&rev=1

It seems to belong to a legitimate company, but maybe one that has suffered an Office 365 compromise.

The ZIP file it leads to is named Fax_11292016.zip (there may be other versions) containing two identical scripts named

Fax_11292016_page1.js
Fax_11292016_page2.js

that look like this. Hybrid Analysis of the script indicates this is Nymaim, downloading a component from:

siliguribarassociation.org/images/staffs/documetns.png

A malicious EXE is dropped with an MD5 of bdf952b2388bf429097b771746395a4c and a detection rate of 9/56. The malware then phones home to:

stengeling.com/20aml/index.php

The domain stengeling.com appears to have been created for this malware and has anonymous registration details. It is apparently multihomed on the following IPs:

4.77.129.110
18.17.224.92
31.209.107.100
37.15.90.12

176.114.21.171
184.131.179.44
207.77.174.212

Each of those IPs appears to be a hacked legitimate host, with a high turnover of IPs. Those IPs appear to be associated with the following domains that may be worth blocking:

butestsis.com
sievecnda.com
specsotch.com
crileliste.com
stengeling.com

Malware spam: "Please find attached a XLS Invoice 378296" / creditcontrol@somecompany.com / Ansell Lighting

This fake financial spam comes with a malicious attachment, purporting to come from Ansell Lighting:

Subject:     Please find attached a XLS Invoice 378296
From:     creditcontrol@potomachealthcare.com (creditcontrol@potomachealthcare.com)
Date:     Tuesday, 29 November 2016, 10:32

The original message was not completely plain text, and may be unsafe to
open with some email clients; in particular, it may contain a virus,
or confirm that your address can receive spam.  If you wish to view
it, it may be safer to save it to a file and open it with an editor.

Please find attached your Invoice for Goods/Services recently delivered. If you have any questions, then pleasedo not hesitate in contacting us.Karen Lightfoot -Credit Controller, Ansell Lighting, Unit 6B, Stonecross Industrial Park, Yew Tree Way, WA3 3JD. Tel: +44 (0)5216 154 830 Fax: +44 (0)5216 154 830

The email comes from a random creditcontrol@something email address. Attached is a malicious Excel file with a name such as INVOICE.TAM_378296_20161129_886C9EAB6.xls.

My usual reliable source says that the various versions of Excel spreadsheet download a component form one of the following locations:

Malware spam: [Vigor2820 Series] New voice mail message from 014xxxxxxxx on %date%

This fake voicemail spam leads to Locky ransomware and appears to come from within the victim's own domain, but this is just a simple forgery.

Subject:     [Vigor2820 Series] New voice mail message from 01435773591 on 2016/11/25 18:29:39
From:     voicemail@victimdomain.tld
To:     victim@victimdomain.tld
Date:     Friday, 25 November 2016, 12:58

Dear webmaster :
    There is a message for you from 01435773591, on 2016/11/25 18:29:39 .
You might want to check it when you get a chance.Thanks!

The number in the message will vary, but is consistent throughout. Attached is a ZIP file referencing the same number, e.g. Message_from_01435773591.wav.zip which contains a malicious Javascript that looks like this.

This Malwr analysis shows behaviour consistent with Locky ransomware. My usual source tells me that all the download locations for this campaign are:

Dear [redacted], your payment was not processed due to the problem with credentials.

Malware spam: "financial records subpoena" / lawfirmofoklahoma.com

This spam purports to come from Michael T Diver who is a real Oklahoma attorney, but it doesn't really and is jut a simple forgery:

From:    MICHAEL T. DIVER [michael -at- lawfirmofoklahoma.com]
Date:    23 November 2016 at 15:24
Subject:    RE:RE: financial records subpoena

See you in court !!!

Subpoena for server

Thank you,

MICHAEL T. DIVER

T (405) 608-4990

F (405) 608-4991

The telephone number and also potentially the email address are genuine, but they are certainly not being sent from this law firm.

The link in the email goes to a legitimate but hacked Vietnamese site at techsmart.vn/backup2/get.php?id=[base64-encoded-part] (the last bit is a Base 64 representation of the victim's email address).

In testing the payload site was down, but previous emails of this type have lead to the Vawtrak banking trojan.

Moar Locky: "Bill-12345" from victim's own domain

Malware spam "Please Pay Attention" leads to Locky

This fake financial spam leads to Locky ransomware:

Subject:     Please Pay Attention
From:     Bill Rivera
Date:     Wednesday, 23 November 2016, 9:45

Dear [redacted], we have received your payment but the amount was not full.
Probably, this occurred due to taxes we take from the amount.
All the details are in the attachment - please check it out.

The name of the sender will vary. In the sample I analysed, a ZIP file was attached with a filename beginning
lastpayment_ followed by the first part of the recipients email address. This archive contains a randomly-named malicious .JS script that looks like this.

This particular script (and there will be others) downloads a malicious component from one of the following locations:

nielsredeker.nl/gmcoirnrm
gurlfanam.net/krwjx
vedicmotet.com/61y7mljr4
praam.cz/iessl
nightpeople.co.il/xklqq33nr

According to this Malwr report a malicious DLL is dropped with an MD5 of def0d0070d4aed411b84ebd713fd8b92 and a detection rate of 6/56.

The Hybrid Analysis clearly shows the ransomware in action and shows it communicating with the following URLs:

95.213.186.93/information.cgi [hostname: djaksa.airplexalator.com] (Selectel, Russia)
195.123.209.8/information.cgi [hostname: kostya234.itldc-customer.net] (Layer6, Latvia)

Malware spam: "Invoice 123456" from random sender in victim's own domain

This fake financial spam appears to come from a random sender in the victim's own domain, but this is just a simple forgery. The payload is Locky ransomware.

Subject:     Invoice 5639438
From:     random sender (random.sender@victimdomain.tld)
Date:     Tuesday, 22 November 2016, 8:43

Attached is the document 'Invoice 5639438'.

The reference number varies from email to email, but is consistent in the subject, body and the name of the attachment (e.g. Invoice 5639438.zip). This ZIP file contains a malicious WSF script (e.g. Invoice 7868933153.wsf) that looks like this.

According the the Malwr analysis, that script downloads from:

manage.parafx.com/98y4h?AdIXigNCmu=UdJVux

There are no doubt many other locations. That same analysis shows a DLL being dropped with an MD5 of de5d8250edf98262f335cd87fe6f6740 and a detection rate of 9/56. The Hybrid Analysis of the same sample shows the malware contacting the following C2 locations:

89.108.73.124/information.cgi (Agava, Russia)
91.211.119.98/information.cgi (Zharkov Mukola Mukolayovuch aka 0x2a.com.ua, Ukraine)

Malware spam: "Delivery status" leads to Locky

This fake financial spam leads to Locky ransomware:

Subject:     Delivery status
From:     Gilbert Hancock
Date:     Tuesday, 22 November 2016, 8:51

Dear Client! Our delivery department could not accept your operation due to a problem with your current account.
In order to avoid falling into arrears and getting charged, please fill out the document in the attachment as soon as possible and send it to us.

In the sample I analysed there was an attachment named document_recipientname.zip (i.e. the first part of the recipient's email address was in the name), containing a malicious javascript with a random name. This particular script (and there are probably many others) attempts to download a component from one of the following locations:

sbdma.com/ri3xnzkaoz
robertocostama.com/qpnst8glsz
kettycoony.com/ahkzls3w
sadhekoala.com/efgqy4tdw
sdwsgs.com/voh7

According to this Malwr analysis, a malicious DLL is dropped with an MD5 of ebf03567c2a907705a026ff0821d8e63 and a detection rate of 6/55. The Hybrid Analysis reveals the following C2 locations:

91.201.202.130/information.cgi [hostname: dominfo.dp.ua] (FLP Anoprienko Artem Arkadevich aka host-ua.com, Ukraine)
95.213.186.93/information.cgi [hostname: djaksa.airplexalator.com] (Selectel, Russia)
188.120.250.138/information.cgi [hostname: olezhkakovtonyuk.fvds.ru] (TheFirst-RU, Russia)
213.32.66.16/information.cgi (OVH, France)

For those Russian and Ukranian networks I would be tempted to block the entire /24 at least, but this is my minimum recommended blocklist:

91.201.202.130
95.213.186.93
188.120.250.138
213.32.66.16

UPDATE

These are additional download locations for this variant (thank you to my usual source):

Malware spam: "Your LogMein.com subscription has expired!" / billing@secure-lgm.com

This fake financial spam leads to malware:

From:    billing@secure-lgm.com

Subject:    Your LogMein.com subscription has expired!

Dear client,

You are receiving this message because your subscription for LogMeIn Central has expired.

The link in the email actually goes to a page at reg.vn/en/view_bill.php?id=encoded-email-address  (where the last part is the email address in Base 64 encoding). It downloads a malicious document lgm_bill69290.doc with a current detection rate of 8/55. 

Automated analysis [1] [2] shows malicious network traffic to and from:

newaronma.com/zapoy/forum.php
newaronma.com/ls5/forum.php
newaronma.com/blt/patha1.php?v=51

www.libinvestusa.com/images/pm1.dll

A malicious executable is dropped with a detection rate of 7/57. The payload appears to be Hancitor / Vawtrak.

The domain secure-lgm.com appears to have been created for the purposes of sending the email. The probably fake WHOIS details are:

Something evil on 64.20.51.16/29 (customer of Interserver, Inc)

I wrote about this evil network on 64.20.51.16/29 (a customer of Interserver, Inc) over a year ago, identifying it as a hotbed of fraud. Usually these bad networks don't hang around for very long, but in this case it seems to be very persistent.

This time it came to notice from a terse spam with a PDF attached:

From:    Lisa Liang [ineedu98@hanmail.net]
To:    me@yahoo.com
Date:    20 November 2016 at 23:23
Subject:    11/21/2016 Amended

FYI

Attached is a file Amended copy.pdf which when you open it (not recommended) looks blurry with "VIEW" in big red letters.

The link in the email goes to bit.ly/2fJbyol - if you put the "+" on the end of a Bitly link then you can see the number of clickthroughs and what the landing page is (www.serviceupgrade.tech/pdf.php in this case).

Clicking through gives you a login page for "Adobe PDF Online" which is of course a generic phishing page.

Analysis of the 64.20.51.16/29 range finds 193 sites historically connected with it marked as being phishing or some other malicious activity. There are at least 284 sites currently within that range, of which the following are both hosted in that range currently and are malicious:

sparvicharityfoundation.com
ftp.eurocontrol-int.net
eurocontrol-int.net
bocusin.com
eurocontrol-int.net
meclp.com
lntedg.com
bs-shipmanagements.com
rolloninz.com
outlook-excell.com
safetech-online.com
lrbis.com
stmposlka.com
combinaparts.com
gsctechinology.com

ubsinvbnk.com
kiy-carbon.com
hsbcoffshores.com
natural-live.top
ftp.daemon-mail.com
ftp.paypalcenter.com
mobile-secure.us
zharmonics-online.com
nahpa-vn.com
djhexport.com
paypalcenter.com
victorialmpex.com
schmiditsports.com
lindner-stofftiere.com
novady.top

11% of the total sites in the range have been tagged by SURBL or Google as being bad, and to be honest there are probably a LOT more but those services haven't caught up yet.

In any case, there seems to be nothing of value in 64.20.51.16/29 and I strongly recommend that you block traffic to the entire range.

The link in the email leads to updatemicrosoftonline.com on 89.248.168.13 (Quasi Networks LTD, Seychelles). Despite the email and the domain name it leads to an HMRC-themed phishing page..

This multi-phish page has twelve UK banks set up on it:

• Barclays
• Halifax
• HSBC
• Lloyds Bank
• NatWest
• Royal Bank of Scotland
• Santander
• TSB
• Metro Bank
• Clydesdale Bank
• The Co-Operative Bank
• Tesco Bank

Clicking on any of the links goes to a pretty convincing looking phish page, personalised for each bank and carefully extracting all the information they need for account theft.  The screenshots below are the sequence if you choose TSB bank.

Once you have entered all the information, the process appears to fail and you are directed to a genuine HMRC site instead.

A list of sites found in 89.248.168.0/24 can be found here [pastebin]. I suggest that the entire network range looks questionable and should be blocked.

For one sample script, the Hybrid Analysis and Malwr report indicate a binary is downloaded from one of the following locations:

alamanconsulting.at/0ftce4?aGiszrIV=gRLYYDHSna

Malware spam: "Account temporarily suspended" leads to Locky

This fake financial spam leads to Locky ransomware:

From:    Nicole Roman
Date:    9 November 2016 at 10:44
Subject:    Account temporarily suspended

Dear Customer.

You have exceeded the limit of operations on your credit card.
Thus, we have temporarily blocked your account.
The full itemization of transactions and instructions are given in the document attached to this message.

Best regards.

The name of the sender varies. In the sample I looked at, the attachment was named after the recipient plus a random number, containing a randomly-named malicious .js script that looks like this

That particular script attempts to download a binary from one of the following locations (you can be sure there are others);

hippaupsup.com/3gc7c2rp
melkar.com/icfi5mg
inspireyouths.org/j48tb3
ausulifer.net/3xwpi
koratwifi.info/io4h3

This Hybrid Analysis and this Malwr report show a DLL being dropped with an MD5 of f86d98b1a67952f290c550db1c0bdcbc and a detection rate of 9/56.

No C2 locations have been identified yet. I will post them here if I get them.

Malware spam: "Suspicious movements" leads to Locky

This fake financial spam leads to Locky ransomware:

Subject:     Suspicious movements
From:     Marlene Parrish
Date:     Tuesday, 8 November 2016, 12:52

Dear [redacted], Leroy from the bank notified us about the suspicious movements on out account.

The names, addresses and telephone numbers will vary from message to message. Attached is a ZIP file (e.g. pdf_recipient_3608c4a.zip) which contains a malicious javascript (e.g. NRV_J51E8_.js) which looks like this (note the insane amount of whitespace).

That particular script downloads a malicious component from one of the following locations:

vexerrais.net/6sbdh
centinel.ca/wkr1j6n
3-50-90.ru/u4y5t
alpermetalsanayi.com/vuvls
flurrbinh.net/6mz3c5q

There will probably be other download locations. This Hybrid Analysis and this Malwr report show the Locky ransomware in action. This version of Locky does not appear to use C2 servers, but instead drops a malicious DLL with an MD5 of 75e6faf192d00b296d89df2cd56c454a and a detection rate of 9/56.

Malware spam: "Statement" leads to Locky

Another terse fake financial spam leading to Locky ransomware:

Subject:     Statement
From:     accounts@somedomain.tld
Date:     Tuesday, 8 November 2016, 10:59

For your Information.

The sender domain varies. Attached is a ZIP file with a name similar to Statement PDF - 56765041263.zip which in turn contains a malicious WSF script (like this) named in a format similar to SLM245260-0214.wsf.

Hybrid Analysis of this one sample shows a download occurring from:

gpstrackerbali.com/67j5hg?LzQWruaaLHv=dIYfuCrkfcG

There will no doubt be many other locations, if I get more information then I will post it here. The script drops a DLL with a detection rate of 14/56 and the malware appears to phone home to:

185.118.66.90/message.php (vpsville.ru, Russia)
158.69.223.5/message.php (OVH, Canada)

Recommended blocklist:
185.118.66.90
158.69.223.5

Malware spam: "Financial documents" leads to Locky

The never-ending Locky ransomware onslaught continues. This fake financial spam has a malicious attachment:

Subject:     Financial documents
From:     Judy Herman
To:     [redacted]
Date:     Monday, 7 November 2016, 10:53

Hi [redacted],

These financial documents need to be uploaded on the system.
Please let me know if you experience any technical problems.

Best Wishes,
Judy Herman 

Sender names will probably vary. In the sample I saw there was an attachment named fin_docs_f73856f4.zip containing a malicious script NRV_A194008F_.vbs that looks like this. This particular script (and there will be others like it) attempts to download from:

According to this Hybrid Analysis, the malware then phones home to:

195.123.211.229/message.php [hostname: panteleev.zomro.com] (Layer6 Networks, Bulgaria / ITLDC, Latvia)
185.67.0.102/message.php [hostname: endgo.ru] (Hostpro Ltd. / hostpro.com.ua, Ukraine)
