Yesterday, a detailed article on “behavior mapping” in cyberspace was published. The article introduced an example of using a ZoomEye query to get all the Trickbot C2 ips all at once:

Today I will bring you another typical case: How to hunt more BazarLoader C2s through a ZoomEye Query?

I noticed on September 1 that @TheDFIRReport released two ip addresses about BazarLoader C2 https://twitter.com/TheDFIRReport/status/1433055791964049412

#BazarLoader
64.227.73.80
64.225.71.198

Through the search of ZoomEye, I found that their banners are very similar, which is the feature of “behavioral mapping” mentioned in our article yesterday.

Through the search of ZoomEye, I found that their banners are very similar, that is, the feature of “behavioral mapping” mentioned in our article yesterday. Of course, there is also a detailed difference of “Connection: close” which is the same as that of Trickbot.

Through the search of ZoomEye, I found that their banners are very similar, that is, the feature of “behavior mapping” mentioned in our article yesterday. Of course, there is also a detailed difference of “Connection: close” which is the same as that of Trickbot, so I You can start with one of them, I chose 64.227.73.80:443

After several query tests, I got this special ZoomEye dork:

“HTTP/1.1 404 Not found” +”Server: nginx” +”Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8" +”Connection: close Date” -”Content-Length” -”<head>” -”Cache-Control”

I found 157 pieces of data, most of which are concentrated on port 443, which is consistent with the sample 64.227.73.80:443, so I decided to download these data and extract the “issuer” and related domain names in the certificate and the results are as follows:

From the related results and information of the Issuer: of the certificate, there are obvious behavioral characteristics, for example, many characters such as “System, CN=” are included, so after testing, the false positive IP address is excluded, and finally ZoomEye dork is obtained:

(ssl:”System,CN” ssl:”Amadey Org,CN” ssl:”O=Global Security,OU=IT Department,CN=example.com” ssl:”NZT,CN” ssl:”O=Lero,OU=Lero” ssl:”Security,OU=Krot” ssl:”O=Shioban,OU=Shioban”) +”HTTP/1.1 404 Not found” +”Server: nginx” +”Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8" -ssl:”OU=System” -ssl:digicert -”Content-Length” -”Connection: keep-alive”

As a result, we have achieved 254 C2 ip addresses suspected to be used by BazarLoader through a ZoomEye query,Of course, we analyze and extract the 254 pieces of data, including the domain name and JARM in the certificate and the results are as follows:
