EXCEL 4.0 MACROS : After analyzing over 1,60,000 Excel 4.0 documents between November 2020 and March 2021, cyber security experts found over 90% of them to be malicious or suspicious. This means only one thing. Cyber criminals are increasingly using Excel 4.0 documents for their operations. A new research found that hackers are increasingly adopting Excel 4.0 documents to distribute malware such as Zloader and Quakbot. But what exactly is a Excel 4.0 Macro and why it is being increasingly used by cyber criminals. Find out about them and learn how to create Excel 4.0 Macros to gain a reverse shell.
REAL WORLD HACKING SCENARIO : In this month’s Real World Hacking Scenario, our Black Hat Hackercool hacks a Joomla website, prepares a Koadic payload, embeds it in a dropper and hosts it on the hacked Joomla website. Then he lures the victims with a phishing link that redirects them to the hacked website. As soon as the victims visit the hacked website, the malware is downloaded with a lure. When victims install it, Hackercool gains access to their system. All this happens with Anti Malware and Firewall on the target ON.
BYPASSING ANTIVIRUS : Cyber Security researchers at ProofPoint were tracking a hacking operation they named as TA800. TA800 had a common mode of operation. They send personalized phishing emails containing a link to a supposed PDF document. Users who visited that link, downloaded malware with a fake PDF icon. This Malware is a loader which once opened provides attackers control of victim’s Windows Systems. These hackers have been using a loader named Baz Loader since 2020. However, researchers noticed a new loader being used by these hackers on February 3, 2021. This loader which researchers named as Nimza Loader was built in Nim programming. Learn how to create a Nim payload that can bypass antivirus and gain a shell on the target system.
