Virus Analysis; Code Evolution Techniques

One of the most important requirements of malicious code analysis is the understand of advanced code evolution techniques.There are common techniques used by malicious code developers and writers to evade detection and destruction: 

 

Common Techniques:

 1. Self-Encryption and Self-Decryption

Malicious code may encrypt the virus body. Even using several layers of encryption and decryption and/or using random keys (Oligomorphic Viruses) in encryption and decryption. This makes them harder to examine directly.

2. Binders and Packers

Most virus signature files are created based on the checksum value which makes use of the file properties and first few bytes of the malicious code binaries. The binders technique is to bind the virus and malicious code file on to another file, which changes its form. The packers technique is to compress the virus code before it is embedded.

3. Polymorphism

Malicious code can change its default encryption settings as well as the decryption code during self-encryption. These make it much more difficult to detect.

4. Metamorphic Viruses
These do not have a decryptor or a constant virus body but are able to create new generations that look different. Malicious code change its form by, for instance, rearranging its code fragments or/and by adding useless lines of code into its source, and recompiling itself into a new form.

5. Stealth

The technique is designed to evade anti-virus software detection by hiding the code itself.

Let's have a talk about virus infection techniques in future post.

Wrap a BAT or VBS into an EXE

There is no way to convert a .vbs files or .bat files into an executable (.exe file) because they are not a compiled language. The process of converting source code into native executable code is called "compilation", and it's not supported by scripting languages like VBScript or Batch Files.

Alternatively, there are ways to wrap VBScript and BAT code files in to a standalone executable file. There is a native Windows tool called IExpress which you can wrap a vbs or bat into an .exe.

In XP or Windows 7 press windows key + r ( OR click Start, click Run) for Run dialog box. Then enter iexpress in Run dialog box, and click OK. This starts the IExpress Wizard.

1.     On the IExpress, select Create new Self Extraction Directive file and hit Next.

2.     Select Extract files and run an installation command and click Next.

3.     On next page type a title for your package and click Next.

4.     On the Confirmation prompt page, select No prompt and click Next.

5.     On next page, select Do not display a license and click Next.

6.     On the Packaged files page, click Add and select the vbs script or bat from the directory in which it resides:

7.     When you finish adding files, click Next.

8.     On the Install Program to Launch page, in the Install Program box,type;

 c:\windows\system32\cscript.exe “yourVBS.VBS OR yourBAT.BAT” 

OR

 c:\windows\system32\wscript.exe “yourVBS.VBS OR yourBAT.BAT”

Leave the Post Install Command box BLANK.

9.  On the Show window page, select Hidden and click Next.

10.  On the Finished message page, select No message and click Next.

11.  On the Package Name and Options page, enter the path and file name that you want for this distribution package. Check both boxes and click Yes to the warning under Options and click Next.

12.  On the Configure restart page, select No restart and click Next.

13.  On the Save Self Extraction Directive page, select Save Self Extraction Directive(SED) file:, edit the path and name of the file, and click Next.

14.  On the Create package page, click Next. When the package has been created, click Finish to exit.

15.  The package will now be created with the name you specified and have an extension of .EXE.

Now you can wrap and send your funny VBScripts and Batch files as exe file. ;)

Hack Your Friend’s Keyboard (VBS Fun With Notepad)

1. Open Notepad and type :

Set wshShell = wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
do
wscript.sleep 100
wshshell.sendkeys "You are FOOL"
loop

2. Save it as "Anything.VBS" and send it to your friend.

3. When he runs the file it will begins to type "You are Fool"  simultaneously. He will kill you. But This one not harmful. We can stop the script;

To stop the Script:

1. Open "Windows Task Manager".
2. Hit the "Processes" tab.
3. Find the "wscript" and end the process.

OR

Restart the machine.

I will make a post about how to use Iexpress to wrap your VBS scripts into an .exe in my future post.

Track Your Stolen Laptop, Smart Phone

What would you do if someone steals your notebook or smart phone with its precious or sensitive data that comprises your digital, personal and work life?

Prey is a lightweight tracking software that helps you find, lock and recover your device when stolen or missing. It is open-source and available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Android.

How Prey works:

Prey tracking software runs in the background processes of your notebook. It "wakes" at a specified interval, goes online (if your laptop isn't already connected to the Internet, Prey tries to connect to the nearest open Wi-Fi access point) and checks in with a specified Web address to see what you have ordered it to do. If said address doesn't issue a command to the laptop (such as telling your computer that it is considered stolen), the Prey software returns to sleep and will wake up again at the next time interval.

If your laptop is stolen, you can use another computer to sign in to the Prey Web site, mark the laptop as missing, and follow the whereabouts of your purloined system through a control panel -- assuming the thief takes your notebook online or the software manages to connect to a Wi-Fi access point.

Hide Files Inside of Image Files

1. Create a new folder on your HDD,
   Example: I create a folder in my D: drive and rename it as "Lesson". ( D:\Lesson )
* It better you follow my blue colored examples if you are a n00b.

2. Then drop the file(s) that you need to hide, into that folder. And also, place the image that you'll be using to hide the files in. In my case I have want to hide a text file ( Test.txt ) file inside a image file( Image.jpg ). So I put both files into D:\Lesson folder.

3. Now select the file(s) that you want to hide. Only select the files you want to hide, not the picture. (In my case I select only the Text.txt file.) Right-click on them; and choose the option to add them to a compressed RAR file. In order to accomplish this task, you will need to have either archiving or compression program such as WinRAR installed on your computer.

Name this RAR file whatever you want. I renamed it as “Secret.rar”.

4. Now click on Start, and then click on Run ( or press Windows Key + "r" ). It will open-up the run dialog box. In there type “CMD” without the quotes and press Enter.
It will pop-up the command prompt window.
Use "cd" command on command prompt to change the current working directory of the CMD in to your folder that contain the secret files. As my example I type cd D:\Lesson to get to the "Lesson" directory in D: drive.

5. If you successfully move to your folder on CMD, then type the following line:
"copy /b NameOfTheImage.JPG + NameOfZIPorRAR.rar NameOfNewSecretImage.jpg" ( without "s ) and press Enter.

In my example;

copy /b Image.JPG + Secret.rar SecretImage.jpg

If you success it will say "1file(s) copied.".

And that’s it! The image file will have been updated with the compressed archive inside! You can actually check the file size of the picture and see that it has increased by the same amount as the size of the archive. Now You can delete all other files except the SecretImage.jpg ( Newly build secret image. ).

You can access your hidden file(s) by simply change the extension to .RAR and open the file using WinRAR.
Then your hidden files show up and you can extract them out.
It may sound like a lot of work, but it's a pretty simple. That is all it takes to hide files inside JPG picture files! It’s a great way simply because not many people know it’s possible and no one even thinks about a picture as having to the ability to “hide” files. This is only a tiny trick. A kind of a foolproof method. But if you want to get really serious about encryption, you'll want to encrypt your data with TrueCrypt.

Good luck and keep exploring..!! ;)
