∗∗∗ SharkBot-Trojaner im Play Store – Risiko "Antivirus-Apps" ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Im Google Play Store ist erneut der Banking-Trojaner SharkBot aufgetaucht und hat sich als Antiviren- und Cleaner-App getarnt. Sicherheitsforscher von CyberNews schreiben: Android-Nutzer sollten es sich zweimal überlegen, bevor sie kostenlose Apps zur Reinigung ihres Mobiltelefons und zum "Schutz" vor Viren herunterladen - denn viele von ihnen enthalten Daten-Tracker und einige scheinen sogar Links zu potenziell bösartigen Domains zu beinhalten.

∗∗∗ Maldoc With Decoy BASE64, (Fri, Sep 9th) ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
There is also a video for this analysis: "Maldoc Analysis: Rehearsed vs. Unrehearsed". 
I analysed this maldoc. It contains an old exploit for the equation editor. Nothing special. And it's easy to analyze. 
But there is one more thing: it contains a very long BASE64 string, 800,000+ characters, and it turns out to be a decoy.

∗∗∗ WMI Internals Part 3 ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
In a previous blog post of mine — WMI Internals Part 2: Reversing a WMI Provider I walked through how the WMI architecture is foundationally built upon COM and in turn how WMI classes can end up invoking COM methods to perform actions. I used the PS_ScheduledTask WMI class as an example and how when an instance of this class is created the COM method ITaskServices:NewTask is invoked. 
This blog will take this process a step further and look at what happens after the COM method ITaskServices:NewTask.

One of our honeypots based on exposed Docker REST APIs showed cybercriminal group TeamTNT’s potential attack scenario and leak of container registry credentials for docker-abuse malware. The full version of this research will be presented at the c0c0n XV Hacking and Cyber Security Conference in September 2022.
