Призрак

Призрак (pronounced "prizrak"), Bulgarian for "Ghost", is a project that attemps to install malware on Ubuntu machines through the apt package manager. This is done by using a Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack to divert requests for Ubuntu mirror servers to an imposter web server. This server injects malicious code into the preinst file of the requested .deb archive. However, apt's use of checksums prevent the full attack from working.

Dependencies:

• python3.6 (NetfilterQueue does not work with higher versions)
• Scapy (utilities, packet creation and modification)
• NetfilterQueue (interaction with packets in the NFQUEUE)
• BeautifulSoup (scraping Ubuntu mirrors)

Usage

sudo ./prizrak.py -t <Target_IP> -g <Gateway_IP> -i <Interface>

Implementation

prizrak.py starts three threads:

• arp_spoof from arp.py, which poisons the ARP cache table of the target and the gateway to initiate a MitM attack.
• dns_spoof from dns.py, which poisons the victim's DNS cache so traffic to Ubuntu mirror servers gets redirected to the attacker's machine.
• start_server from fake_server.py, which creates a webserver which accepts requests for apt packages and injects the code from malware/install.

Upon installation of the package, three files are downloaded:

• malware/l32, an executable which starts a bind shell on port 65123.
• malware/systemd-helper.service, a systemd service which restarts l32 on reboot/crash.
• malware/libc.lib32.so.6, a shared library which gets added to /etc/ld.so.preload to overwrite the fopen, fopen64, readdir, readdir64, and statx functions.

The shared library hides the downloaded files from ls and additionally hides the opened port from programs such as netstat which use /proc/net/tcp to get information about active TCP connections.
