    Velvet Ant's silent invasion. [Research Saturday] Nov 02, 2024
    Show notes

    This week, we are joined by, Amnon Kushnir from Sygnia, who is sharing their work on "China-Nexus Threat Group ‘Velvet Ant’ Leverages a Zero-Day to Deploy Malware on Cisco Nexus Switches." In early 2024, Sygnia observed the ‘Velvet Ant’ threat group exploiting a zero-day vulnerability (CVE-2024-20399) to infiltrate Cisco Switch appliances and operate undetected within enterprise networks.

    This attack enables threat actors to escape Cisco’s command interface and install malware directly on the device’s OS, bypassing standard security tools. The incident underscores the risks posed by third-party appliances and the importance of enhanced monitoring and threat detection to counter advanced persistent threats.

    The research can be found here:

    The Malware Mash Oct 31, 2024
    Show notes

    Happy Halloween from the team at N2K Networks!


    We hope you share in our Halloween tradition of listening to the Malware Mash. You can check out our video here.


    Lyrics


    I was coding in the lab late one night

    when my eyes beheld an eerie sight

    for my malware threat score began to rise

    and suddenly to my surprise...


    It did the Mash

    It did the Malware Mash

    The Malware Mash

    It was a botnet smash

    It did the Mash

    It caught on 'cause of Flash

    The Malware Mash

    It did the Malware Mash


    From the Stuxnet worm squirming toward the near east

    to the dark web souqs where the script kiddies feast

    the APTs left their humble abodes

    to get installed from rootkit payloads.


    They did the Mash

    They did the Malware Mash

    The Malware Mash

    It was an adware smash

    They did the Mash

    It caught on 'cause of Flash

    The Malware Mash

    They did the Malware Mash


    The botnets were having fun

    The DDoS had just begun

    The viruses hit the darknet,

    with ransomware yet to come.

    The keys were logging, phishing emails abound,

    Snowden on chains, backed by his Russian hounds.

    The Shadow Brokers were about to arrive

    with their vocal group, "The NotPetya Five."


    They did the Mash

    They played the Malware Mash

    The Malware Mash

    It was a botnet smash

    They did the Mash

    It caught on 'cause of Flash

    The Malware Mash

    They played the Malware Mash


    Somewhere in Moscow Vlad's voice did ring

    Seems he was troubled by just one thing.

    He opened a shell then shook his fist

    and said, "Whatever happened to my Turla Trojan twist."


    It's now the Mash

    It's now the Malware Mash

    The Malware Mash

    And it's a botnet smash

    It's now the Mash

    It caught on 'cause of Flash

    The Malware Mash

    It's now the Malware Mash


    Now everything's cool, Vlad's a part of the band

    And the Malware Mash is the hit of the land.

    For you, defenders, this mash was meant to

    when you get to my door, tell them Creeper sent you.


    Then you can Mash

    Then you can Malware Mash

    The Malware Mash

    And be a botnet smash

    It is the Mash

    Don't you dare download Flash

    The Malware Mash

    Just do the Malware Mash
