Rewterz Threat Advisory – Cobalt Bank Robbers Use New ThreadKit Malicious Doc Builder

December 14, 2018

SEVERITY: Medium

 

 

CATEGORY: Vulnerability

 

 

PUBLISH DATE: December 14, 2018

 

 

ANALYSIS SUMMARY

 

 

The Cobalt hacking group has resurfaced with a new variant of the ThreadKit exploit builder kit for Microsoft Office documents. The ThreadKit macro delivery tool with its modified technique deploys a payload on victim’s system called CobInt, a signature malware for the Cobalt group. CobInt, also known as COOLPANTS, is a backdoor used by Cobalt for reconnaissance purposes that was discovered on a command and control (C2) server operated by the hackers.

 

The group uses advanced phishing techniques in their emails to lure users into downloading the payloads on their system. The email addresses have a domain belonging to financial sector and banks. A remote code is executed by exploiting the following vulnerability in Internet Explorer. The group exploits CVE-2018-8174, a remote code execution vulnerability that exists in the way that the VBScript engine handles objects in memory. This may cause memory corruption and will lead to code execution in the context of current user. If the user is logged in as an administrator, attackers can also gain system access.
