Verizon Dark Web Threat Hunters locate Russian-controlled phishing websites.

Published: November 22, 2019

This week, Verizon Dark Web Threat Hunters identified a likely Russian-controlled server hosting a phishing website posing as a LinkedIn sign-in page (figure 1). Further enumeration revealed a PHP Base64 encoded webshell on the server open to anyone who browsed to the URL. An analysis of other websites owned by the same network provider linked to other phishing websites.

Figure 1. Cybercrimianls crafted this phishing page to look very much like a legitimate LinkedIn login screen

The webshell, identified as WebShellOrb 2.6 (figure 2)  was found at manchomperle[.]com with an IP address of 91[.]234[.]99[.]117. The Russian actor is believed to be spreading crimeware via directed phishing campaigns. So far, Verizon Dark Web Threat Hunters have identified at least one case directed toward our customers. A list of aggregated indicators of compromise have been added to our threat intelligence library and have been added below for convenience.

Recommendations

Verizon strongly suggests educating employees of the risks associated with targeted phishing―especially those that spoof well-known social media brands―along with providing them with tools to identify malicious content sent via phishing. Additionally, we suggest adding the aggregated IOCs to block lists to prevent potential risk of compromise
