CRING EXPLOITS ADOBE FLAW

Date: September 25, 2021Author: PravinKarthik 0 Comments

An unidentified threat group exploited an 11-year-old vulnerability that existed
in Adobe ColdFusion 9. It allowed the threat actor to remotely control the
ColdFusion server and deploy Cring ransomware onto the server.

The targeted server was used to gather accounting data for payroll and
timesheets, along with hosting a few VMs.The attacks originated from an internet
address given to Green Floid.The infection took only a few minutes by exploiting
an 11-year-old vulnerability in ColdFusion 9 running on Windows Server 2008.
Both the software reached their end-of-life.

After gaining initial access, the attackers used sophisticated tactics to hide
their files, such as injecting code into memory and masking their tracks by
overwriting files with some garbage data. The attackers have abused a set of
directory traversal flaws (CVE-2010-2861), which is found in the administrator
console of ColdFusion 9.0.1 or prior, which could allow remote attackers to read
arbitrary files.

The attackers are believed to have abused another vulnerability in ColdFusion
(CVE-2009-3960) to upload a malicious CSS file to the server.

They used it to load a Cobalt Strike Beacon executable that acted as a medium
for the remote attackers to drop additional payloads and create a user account
with admin privileges. It allowed the attackers to disable anti-malware engines
and endpoint protection systems, before starting the encryption process of Cring
ransomware.

These recent attacks again showed that devices with outdated software have
severe consequences if exploited. There is no guarantee that cybercriminals will
not abuse a decade-old vulnerability. Lest we forget, the first defense is
always updating software and device firmware.
