Microsoft Warns of Sneaky New Macro Trick

Microsoft is warning of an innovative new technique attackers are using to sneak macro malware past virus detection engines and add to the already huge uptick in reported macro attacks. According to researchers at Microsoft’s Malware Protection Center, they stumbled upon the macro technique in a...

How RTF malware evades static signature-based detection

History Rich Text Format RTF is a document format developed by Microsoft that has been widely used on various platforms for more than 29 years. The RTF format is very flexible and therefore complicated. This makes the development of a safe RTF parsers challenging. Some notorious vulnerabilities...

Cerber Ransomware Partners with the Dridex Spam Distributor

Cerber ransomware incorporates the unusual feature of “speaking” its ransom message after successfully infecting a user machine and encrypting files. Cerber was first seen in the wild at the end of February 2016 and was observed being delivered mostly via exploit kits EK, notably using Magnitude...

Obfuscated String Solver: Floss

Rather than heavily protecting backdoors with hardcore packers, many malware authors evade heuristic detections by obfuscating only key portions of an executable. Often, these portions are strings and resources used to configure domains, files, and other artifacts of an infection. These key...

Latest TeslaCrypt Targets New File Extensions, Invests Heavily in Evasion

TeslaCrypt, like many of its ransomware cousins, doesn’t sleep on past success. Researchers at Endgame Inc., have found two updates for the cryptoransomware in the past two weeks that invest heavily in obfuscation and evasion techniques, and also target a host of new file extensions. These sample...

Libssh Type Obfuscation Vulnerability

libssh is a C development package for accessing SSH services, which can execute remote commands, file transfers, and also provide a secure transmission channel for remote programs. A type-obfuscation vulnerability exists in versions of libssh prior to 0.7.3, which stems from a type-obfuscation...
