Meaning, authentication bypasses weren’t enough. After decoding the files , most of the API endpoints and the web interface were not accessible without authentication. The daemon takes XML data, parses the request and carries out the action without any authentication, except making sure the request came from 127.0.0.1.

The backdoor hooks the password authentication function to allow the attacker to use any username/password to log in to the infected server without any further verification. It does the same with public key authentication. If the script detects that it’s running on Windows 2000, XP, 2003 or Vista, it shuts down.

This client had multiple networks that were completely firewalled, so there was no direct connection possible between these network segments. Both network segments were able to connect to domain controllers in the same domain and could interact with objects, authenticate users, query information and more. Why a C2 LDAP channel?

Just as the development of cannons and other weapons made walls obsolete as a form of defense, sophisticated cyber attacks have made the firewall -perimeter model of cybersecurity equally obsolete. No longer is traffic inside the network automatically presumed to be from authorized and authenticated sources.

In 2011, researcher Ang Cui showed how updates to common laser printers were not signed or otherwise authenticated, meaning that you might think you’re doing the right thing by applying an update when in reality you might be unintentionally installing malware. Supply chain compromises have been talked about for a few years now.
