∗∗∗ A Detailed Analysis of a New Stealer Called Stealerium ∗∗∗

Stealerium is an open-source stealer available on GitHub. The malware steals information from browsers, cryptocurrency wallets, and applications such as Discord, Pidgin, Outlook, Telegram, Skype, Element, Signal, Tox, Steam, Minecraft, and VPN clients. The binary also gathers data about the infected host, such as the running processes, Desktop and webcam screenshots, Wi-Fi networks, the Windows product key, and the public and private IP address.

∗∗∗ Rustproofing Linux (nccgroup) ∗∗∗

The nccgroup blog is carrying afour-part series by Domen Puncer Kugler on how vulnerabilities can maketheir way into device drivers written in Rust. In other words, the CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO build option does nothing for Rust code! Developers must be cautious to avoid shooting themselves in the foot when porting a driver from C to Rust, especially if they previously relied on this config option to mitigate this class of vulnerability. It seems that kernel info leaks and KASLR bypasses might be here to stay, at least, for a little while longer.

Many of the bots I am observing attempt to detect the infected system&#;x26;#;39;s public ("WAN") IP address. Most of these systems are assumed to be behind NAT. To detect the external IP address, these bots use various public APIs. It may be helpful to detect these requests. Many use unique host names. This will make detecting the request in DNS logs easy even if TLS is not intercepted.

∗∗∗ Exploit released for critical VMware vRealize RCE vulnerability ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Horizon3 security researchers have released proof-of-concept (PoC) code for a VMware vRealize Log Insight vulnerability chain that allows attackers to gain remote code execution on unpatched appliances.
VMware patched four security vulnerabilities in its vRealize log analysis tool last week, two being critical and allowing remote attackers to execute code on compromised devices.

∗∗∗ Decoding DNS over HTTP(s) Requests, (Mon, Jan 30th) ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
I have written before about scans for DNS over HTTP(s) (DoH) servers. DoH is now widely supported in different browsers and recursive resolvers. It has been an important piece in the puzzle to evade various censorship regimes, in particular, the "Big Chinese Firewall". Malware has at times used DoH, but often uses its own HTTP(s) based resolvers that do not necessarily comply with the official DoH standard.
