Updates POWERSTAR with an InterPlanetary Twist</a></h2> <p class="post-date">June 28, 2023</p> <p class="post-byline">by Ankur Saini, Charlie Gardner </p> <div class="post-content post-excerpt composition"><p>Volexity works with many individuals and organizations often subjected to sophisticated and highly targeted spear-phishing campaigns from a variety of nation-state-level threat actors. In the last few years, Volexity has observed threat actors dramatically increase the level of effort they put into compromising credentials or systems of individual targets. Spear-phishing campaigns now often involve individual, tailored messages that engage in dialogue with each target, sometimes over a period of several days, before a malicious link or file attachment is ever sent. One threat actor Volexity frequently sees employing these techniques is Charming Kitten, who is believed to be operating out of Iran. Charming Kitten appears to be primarily concerned with collecting intelligence by compromising account credentials and, subsequently, the email of individuals they successfully spear phish. The group will often extract any other credentials or access they can, and then attempt to pivot to other systems, such as those accessible […]</p> </div> <div class="blog-cta-contain"> <a class="box-cta" href="https://www.volexity.com/blog/2023/06/28/charming-kitten-updates-powerstar-with-an-interplanetary-twist/">Read More</a> </div> </li> <li class="post-2401 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-threat-intelligence tag-0day tag-apt tag-cve-2022-24682 tag-espionage tag-exploits tag-spear-phishing tag-xss tag-zimbra authortax-steven-adair authortax-tom-lancaster" id="post-2401" data-url="https://www.volexity.com/blog/2022/02/03/operation-emailthief-active-exploitation-of-zero-day-xss-vulnerability-in-zimbra/" data-title="Operation EmailThief: Active Exploitation of Zero-day XSS Vulnerability in Zimbra"> <h2 class="post-title"><a href="https://www.volexity.com/blog/2022/02/03/operation-emailthief-active-exploitation-of-zero-day-xss-vulnerability-in-zimbra/">Operation EmailThief: Active Exploitation of Zero-day XSS Vulnerability in Zimbra</a></h2> <p class="post-date">February 3, 2022</p> <p class="post-byline">by Steven Adair, Tom Lancaster </p> <div class="post-content post-excerpt composition"><p>[UPDATE] On February 4, 2022,聽Zimbra provided an update regarding this zero-day exploit vulnerability and reported that a hotfix for 8.8.15 P30 would be available on February 5, 2022. This vulnerability was later assigned CVE-2022-24682 and was fixed in version 8.8.15P30 Update 2 of Zimbra Collaboration Suite. In December 2021, through its Network Security Monitoring service, Volexity identified a series of targeted spear-phishing campaigns against one of its customers from a threat actor it tracks as TEMP_Heretic. Analysis of the emails from these spear phishing campaigns led to a discovery: the attacker was attempting to exploit a zero-day cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Zimbra email platform. Zimbra is an open source email platform often used by organizations as an alternative to Microsoft Exchange. The campaigns came in multiple waves across two attack phases. The initial phase was aimed at reconnaissance and involved emails designed to simply track if a target […]</p> </div> <div class="blog-cta-contain"> <a class="box-cta" href="https://www.volexity.com/blog/2022/02/03/operation-emailthief-active-exploitation-of-zero-day-xss-vulnerability-in-zimbra/">Read More</a> </div> </li> <li class="post-2117 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-threat-intelligence tag-apt tag-dukes tag-spear-phishing authortax-damien-cash authortax-josh-grunzweig authortax-matthew-meltzer authortax-sean-koessel authortax-steven-adair authortax-tom-lancaster" id="post-2117" data-url="https://www.volexity.com/blog/2021/05/27/suspected-apt29-operation-launches-election-fraud-themed-phishing-campaigns/" data-title="Suspected APT29 Operation Launches Election Fraud Themed Phishing Campaigns"> <h2 class="post-title"><a href="https://www.volexity.com/blog/2021/05/27/suspected-apt29-operation-launches-election-fraud-themed-phishing-campaigns/">Suspected APT29 Operation Launches Election Fraud Themed Phishing Campaigns</a></h2> <p class="post-date">May 27, 2021</p> <p class="post-byline">by Damien Cash, Josh Grunzweig, Matthew Meltzer, Sean Koessel, Steven Adair, Tom Lancaster </p> <div class="post-content post-excerpt composition"><p>On May 25, 2021, Volexity identified a phishing campaign targeting multiple organizations based in the United States and Europe. The following industries have been observed being targeted thus far: NGOs Research Institutions Government Agencies International Agencies The campaign鈥檚 phishing e-mails purported to originate from the USAID government agency and contained a malicious link that resulted in an ISO file being delivered. This file contained a malicious LNK file, a malicious DLL file, and a legitimate lure referencing foreign threats to the 2020 US Federal Elections. This blog post provides details on the observed activity and outlines possible justification that this campaign could be related to APT29.

Volexity observed five different attack waves with a heavy focus on U.S.-based think tanks and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). These e-mails came from a mix of attacker created Google Gmail accounts and what appears to be compromised e-mail accounts at Harvard’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS). These e-mails were sent in large quantities to different individuals across many organizations and individuals focusing in national security, defense, international affairs, public policy, and European and Asian studies. Two of the attacks purported to be messages forwarded on from the Clinton Foundation giving聽 insight and perhaps a postmortem analysis into the elections.
