Security expert Marco Ramilli published the findings of a quick analysis of the webmask project standing behind the DNS attacks implemented by APT34 (aka OilRig and HelixKitten ). The group conducts operations primarily in the Middle East, targeting financial, government, energy, chemical, telecommunications and other industries.
reported that Hexane is targeting organizations in the oil and gas industry and telecommunication providers. The malware uses DNS and HTTP-based communication mechanisms. The group also used the ‘Decrypt-RDCMan.ps1,’ that is a password decryption tool included in the PoshC2 framework for penetrationtesting.
Indeed we might observe a File-based command and control (a quite unusual solution) structure, a VBS launcher, a PowerShell Payload and a covert channel over DNS engine. The group conducts operations primarily in the Middle East, targeting financial, government, energy, chemical, telecommunications and other industries.

If so we are facing a state-sponsored group with high capabilities in developing persistence and hidden communication channels (for example over DNS) but without a deep interest in exploiting services. The group’s victims are mainly in the telecommunications, government (IT services), and oil sectors.”
The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) offers the concept of a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) to address this problem. Attackers can steal source code , detection tools, and penetrationtesting technologies built to fend off the best malicious threats in the world. Mail DNS controls.
