[NEWS] Mac OSX First Ever Fake Antivirus

The first fake antivirus has been released on Mac OS X recently which is called MacDefender/MacProtector/MacSecurity.

I had a chance to come across this fake av when I did google image search a few days back. Unsurprisingly, this Mac fake av does exactly the same way as what Windows fake av did that is it also presents a fake browser page showing the user that their machine has been infected with malware.

When I did a google image search, I opened an image indexed by google in which google will redirect me to a compromised website with a "hidden" (from novice computer user point of view) javascript. After the compromised page is opened, it will immediately redirect user to another page with URL top level domain "cz.cc" which is where the fake av page will be displayed.

Immediately after the scan finished, it will prompt a dialog box to ask download and execute the file after user clicked "Remove all" button.

If you are interested a get a registered version of this MacSecurity, you can visit this post from Kaspersky Lab, http://www.securelist.com/en/blog/11252/Mac_Protector_Register_your_copy_now where you can get a list of valid license key!

Now I have a registered MacProtector to clean the "detected" file  =)

My PC Was Stoned by Ransom Seftad

If you are so unlucky to be one of the victims of Seftad MBR ransomware, do not worry, this MBR infector does not work as what it claims. That is it does not encrypt you hard drive at all but it merely infects your hard disk drive MBR:

Original Clean MBR

Seftad infected MBR

Basically, it replaces the original MBR with the malicious one that is 3 sectors length. The original MBR will be stored at the 4th sector which is offset 0x800.

The password that user entered will be calculated as a word hash value and it can be found here:

The address 7FFA refers to the real-mode address in boot sector and the password is actually located at offset 0x5FA:

which is 0x3c01.

Nevertheless, this MBR infection can be easily solved by using Windows Recovery Console > 'Fixmbr'.

[DOC] Understanding Packets Flow from User Mode to Kernel Mode

It can be determined by first triggering ping and observes how it initiates a packet and send it through to the Network Interface Card (NIC)

Initiate PING

• When ping is initiated, it will call function IcmpSendEcho2Ex exported by IPHLPAPI.dll to send ICMP packets (NOTE: Assume ping is run from Windows Vista or above, for Windows XP IcmpSendEcho2 will be used instead)

• At the same time, WinDBG should be connected and find the ping process context:

• From the summary, this function NtDeviceIoControlFile was called. We know that ping sends the user data/buffer (packets request) to the kernel via this function. We set the breakpoint at the function and look for the parameters that it passes to the kernel:

Inside the Kernel

1. NtDeviceIoControlFile
• In order to go to the kernel mode function of NtDeviceIoControlFile, we set the breakpoint at the Windows native system service nt!NtDeviceIoControlFile and also a breakpoint at the caller to function IcmpSendEcho2:

      kd> bp nt!NtDeviceIoControlFile "!handle esp+4;dd esp lb" // Show the object handle and the parameters
      kd> bp ping!main+0x9ad
      kd> bl
         0 e 8056d590     0001 (0001) nt!NtDeviceIoControlFile "!handle esp+4;dd esp lb"
         1 d 76d6b73c     0001 (0001) iphlpapi!IcmpSendEcho2
         2 e 01002376     0001 (0001) ping!main+0x9ad

• The purpose of doing this is to obtain a list of IoControlCode passed to the kernel immediately after ping send ICMP echo. We will stop collecting Iocontrolcode when breakpoint hits back ping!main+0x9ad.
• First IoControlCode sent to kernel. Notice that the IoControlCode, process's name and handle match exactly what we got in User Mode above (highlighted in red)

2. NdisDeviceControlIrpHandler
• We got 3 informations here:
1. NIC driver name > vmxnet
2. NDIS!ndisQueryStatisticsOids is used to query the NIC stat info
3. NDIS!ndisDeviceControlIrpHandler is a dispatch handler for IRP_MJ_DEVICE_CONTROL major function that is reponsible to handle DeviceIoControl called from user mode
• The ndisDeviceControlIrpHandler is registered by ndis.sys by one of the exported function NdisMRegisterMiniport 

export function NdisMRegisterMiniport -> NdisRegisterMiniportDriver -> Dispatch routine NdisDeviceControlIrpHandler -> NdisQueryStatisticsOids    // Its called NdisDeviceControlIrpHandler in Windows XP ndis.sys

3. NdisQueryStatisticsOids
• What basically this function does is:
1. Check the request info passed by InputBuffer, these info are OIDs that ontains the constants specifies the codes of the NDIS request.

• The output will be stored in OutputBuffer and should look like this:

          The structure of the output: [[Request_OID][Output_Length][Output]]

• Call NDIS!NdisMDispatchRequest which will then call the handler function to transfer the request to the NIC driver. The handler function is stored in one of the members of NDIS_MINIPORT_CHARACTERISTICS.

4. QueryInformationHandler
1. One of the handler functions store in NDIS_MINIPORT_CHARACTERISTICS
2. it specifies the entry point of the caller's MiniportQueryInformation function
3. In order to find the MiniportQueryInformation address registered by the miniport driver (\driver\vmxnet in this case):
   
   kd> !drvobj \driver\vmxnet
   Driver object (81862f38) is for:
   \Driver\vmxnet
   Driver Extension List: (id , addr)
   (4e4d4944 8197a600)
   Device Object list:
   818627e0
4. DriverObjectExtension = 8197a600, allocated by'IoAllocateDriverObjectExtension call within NdisRegisterMiniportDriver ndis.sys export function.
5. DriverObjectExtension is the driver specified structure, in this case the structure is called NDIS_M_DRIVER_BLOCK that store the miniport-ndis driver information:
