## Malware analysis <a name="Malware-analysis"></a>
2019-10-07 13:28:32 +00:00
###### The initial vector is a malicious excel file which used an XLM macro (macro v4). This uses a function for launch the payload when the excel windows is active (selected as primary window). As first action, this executes the module 1.
2019-10-05 22:30:19 +00:00
###### The function call in Module 1 create a Wscript object for change the current directory, show the fake message and push debug messages.
###### The userform execute the extract and execute a different PE instead of the architecture of the victim (x86 and x64).
###### As anti-forensic technique, this delete the files by call of kill functions.
###### We can note that a function is unused and seem to be a rest of the development of the macro.
2019-10-06 21:58:20 +00:00
###### The implant executed push all in memory with a call of VirtualAlloc function.
2019-10-07 13:28:32 +00:00
###### Once this, this checks the system informations, the process executed on the computer and try to detect if this run in a sandbox (low size of the disk).
2019-10-06 21:58:20 +00:00
2019-10-07 13:28:32 +00:00
###### This sends the informations to the C2 and wait for the next instruction of the group.
2019-10-06 21:58:20 +00:00
###### We can list the informations send in the following variables :
2019-10-04 15:31:58 +00:00
2019-10-06 21:58:20 +00:00
|Variables|Description|
|:-------------:|:-------------|
|& D=|Name of the computer|
|& U=|Name of the user|
|& OS=|Version of the OS|
|& PR=|List of process (separed by %7C)|
2019-10-07 13:28:32 +00:00
###### And is presented this way (extracted from the sandbox):
2019-10-06 21:58:20 +00:00
``& D=User-PC& U=admin& OS=6.1& PR=Dwm.exe%7CEXCEL.EXE%7CExplorer.EXE%7Ctaskhost.exe%7Cwindanr.exe%7C``
2019-10-07 13:28:32 +00:00
###### That interesting to note that the group get only the process for see if the victim have security messures (AV, endpoint...) before launch the next step.This drop the clop ransomware if we observe the latest analysis on this subject.The group change currently the trust certificate for bypass the security messures that we can see on the analysis of [VK_Intel](https://twitter.com/vk_intel) :

## Cyber Threat Intel <a name="Cyber-Threat-Intel"></a>
###### Recently, new domains used by the group have been spotted by [Suspicious Link](https://twitter.com/killamjr). On the HTML document, we can see that the fake page usurps dropbox in using external references and the path on the malicious excel document.
###### We can see in more that the personal informations is like the Office of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia.
