[Note: The ZoomEye search data in the article is based on the results of the query on September 11, and the target data has been overwritten and updated]

Before starting the article, please read the following articles to facilitate understanding of related theories:

For related information about CVE-2021–40444, you can refer to the security bulletin issued by Microsoft: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2021-40444 Our purpose is to carry out the survey and mapping of the organization that used this 0day to attack in the first place, so we can start with the information related to the attacker’s IOCs at the time. We noticed that Trend Micro security researchers have released relevant information:

https://www.trendmicro.com/en_us/research/21/i/remote-code-execution-zero-day--cve-2021-40444--hits-windows--tr.html

From their article, I saw the C2 server used by the attacker at the time:

hxxps://joxinu[.]com
hxxps://dodefoh[.]com
hxxp://pawevi[.]com/e32c8df2cf6b7a16/specify.html

Let’s search with ZoomEye: https://www.zoomeye.org/searchResult?q=dodefoh.com%20joxinu.com%20pawevi.com Fortunately, I found the corresponding data results. The relevant information is extracted as follows:

IP:45.147.229.242 Germany, Frankfurt, Operator:combahton.net
ZoomEye Update time:2021–09–06 22:01
CobaltStrike Beacon:

Banner:Comply with Apache default page content
Certificate:
Subject: CN=pawevi.com
Issuer: C=US,O=Let’s Encrypt,CN=R3

From the above information, we can determine:

1, 45.147.229.242 and 104.194.10.21 are CobaltStrike servers
2. pawevi.com bound to 45.153.240.220 is an Apache WEB service. Judging from the IOCs provided by Trends, it should be a remote page loaded with the payload.

It can be seen that the banner of CobaltStrike has been modified and configured. According to our “behavior mapping” concept, these unique modified information are the “behavior characteristics” we want to find.

45.147.229.242

Combining the banner and certificate content through some test analysis, finally determined a relatively accurate ZoomEye Dork:

“HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found” +”Connection: keep-alive” +”X-Powered-By: ASP.NET” +”Content-Length: 0" +”Server: Microsoft-IIS” +”Content-Type: text/plain” +”ST=Greater Manchester” -kong

[ps:After our research, the behavior used by this attacker is probably disguised as Kong API Gateway (https://github.com/Kong/kong), so this is why there is a condition of “-kong”]

https://www.zoomeye.org/searchResult?q=%22HTTP%2F1.1%20%20404%20Not%20Found%22%20%2B%22Connection%3A%20keep-alive%22%20%2B%22X-Powered-By%3A%20ASP.NET%22%20%2B%22Content-Length%3A%200%22%20%2B%22Server%3A%20Microsoft-IIS%22%20%2B%22Content-Type%3A%20text%2Fplain%22%20%2B%22ST%3DGreater%20Manchester%22%20-kong

A total of 319 results, mainly distributed in the United States, a few in Germany, and 1 in the Netherlands.

The number distribution is relatively scattered, the letter composition of the domain name is very similar, and it feels like it was registered after being generated by the program.

The Spawnto_x86 path list in the CobaltStrike Beacon configuration information:

%windir%\syswow64\WUAUCLT.exe -> 2
%windir%\syswow64\mstsc.exe -> 34
%windir%\syswow64\rundll32.exe -> 18
%windir%\syswow64\runonce.exe -> 2
%windir%\syswow64\wusa.exe -> 104

Next, we queried all the IP addresses and domain names that were collected on multiple internal platforms including virustotal.com, and finally found only one target that was marked by a relevant malicious organization:

waceko.com → TA551 (2021–07–28T)

Two IPs can be found by searching waceko.com through ZoomEye:

45.147.231.12
89.163.140.101

They are located in Frankfurt, Germany, The Operator: combahton.net, and the Spawnto_x86: %windir%\syswow64\wusa.exe , This is consistent with the IP corresponding to dodefoh.com and joxinu.com used by the attacker, but the Spawnto_x86 path is different.

IOCs:
