シマンテックは現在、Internet Explorer 10 に影響するゼロデイ脆弱性の悪用の可能性が確認されたという報告について調査しています。これは、米国の Web サイトに侵入し、それをホストとして利用した「水飲み場型」攻撃のようです。無警戒なユーザーが水飲み場型攻撃の Web サイトにアクセスすると、ゼロデイ攻撃がホストされている別の侵入先の Web サイトにリダイレクトされます。
シマンテックはこのゼロデイ脆弱性の可能性について、攻撃経路や関連するサンプルの解析を続けています。初期の解析によって、Adobe Flash の悪質な SWF ファイルに、32 ビット版の Windows 7 と Internet Explorer 10 を標的にしていると思われるシェルコードが含まれていることがわかりました。被害者のデスクトップのスクリーンショットを撮り、攻撃者が被害者のコンピュータを制御できるようになるバックドアも特定されています。シマンテックはこのファイルを Backdoor.Trojan として検出します。
Symantec is currently investigating reports of a potential zero-day exploit affecting Internet Explorer 10 in the wild. This appears to be a watering hole attack that was hosted on a compromised website in the United States. The watering hole attack website redirected unsuspecting users to another compromised website that hosted the zero-day attack.
We continue to analyze the attack vector and associated samples for this potential zero-day. Our initial analysis reveals that the Adobe Flash malicious SWF file contains shell code that appears to be targeting 32-bit versions of Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 10. We have identified a back door being used in this attack that takes screenshots of the victim’s desktop and allows the attacker to take control of the victim’s computer. We identify and detect this file as Backdoor.Trojan.
Symantec also has the following IPS coverage for this watering hole attack:
Symantec Security Response is currently working with Microsoft on this issue and will continue to update our protections. Please monitor our Security Response blog for further developments.
