Description

This report provides detailed analysis of several malicious artifacts associated with a sophisticated supply chain compromise of SolarWinds Orion network management software, identified by the security company FireEye as SUNBURST.

After being delivered as part of certain SolarWinds updates, a trojanized version of the “solarwinds.orion.core.businesslayer.dll” containing SUNBURST malware is installed by a legitimate SolarWinds installer application. The modified dynamic-link library (DLL) contains an obfuscated backdoor that allows a remote operator to execute various functions on the compromised system, as well as deploy additional payloads and exfiltrate data. The embedded SUNBURST code encrypts its outbound communications to the remote operator using XOR encryption and modified Base64 encoding. To maintain a low profile, the SUNBURST code will not run if it detects certain security software running on the target system.

Description

This file is a 32-bit .NET DLL named “SolarWinds.Orion.Core.BusinessLayer.dll.” It is a modified SolarWinds-signed plugin component of the Orion software framework that has been patched with the SUNBURST backdoor. This malicious file was signed with a digital certificate issued by Symantec to SolarWinds. The digital certificate should be considered compromised.

–End Digital Certificate Information–

SUNBURST provides the following capabilities on a compromised system, which are discussed in further detail below.

– Sets a 12 to 14 day delayed execution time
– Stealth
– Command and Control (C2) communication
– Collect system information
– Upload system information from the victim system
– Run specified tasks
– Terminate processes
– Download, read, write, move, delete, and execute files
– Compute file hashes
– Reboot the system
– Adjust process privileges

**DELAYED EXECUTION**
SUNBURST is executed by a legitimate SolarWinds software application designed to load and run SolarWinds plugins. Once installed, it compares its last write time to a randomly generated value between 288 and 336 hours (12 – 14 days) after the file was written. The malware will sleep until this calculated time frame has passed, after which, the malware will begin C2 sessions to retrieve and execute commands or “Jobs” on behalf of the adversary.

**STEALTH**
SUNBURST uses obfuscated blocklists consisting of hashed process and service names to identify analysis tools and antivirus software components running as processes, services, and drivers. It utilizes a modified version of the FNV-1a hash algorithm to determine if specific processes are running on the target system. It will enumerate and hash the process names of all running processes and compare the generated hashes to a hard-coded blocklist. If no block-listed processes are found, it will attempt to resolve the domain “api.solarwinds.com” to test for network connectivity. If a block-listed process is found, it does not proceed with its C2 session. This evasion technique is used to keep it from being detected. The hard coded hashed process names are stored in an unsigned LONG list named “assemblyTimeStamps.” See “**BLOCK LIST CHECKING FUNCTIONS**” below in this report for details.

**COMMAND AND CONTROL**
During runtime, SUNBURST hashes its own parent process name, and compares it to the value 17291806236368054941. If it does not match, the malicious class “OrionImprovementBusinessLayer” will stop executing and the DLL will continue normal activity.

When communicating with its C2, SUNBURST utilizes the Orion Improvement Program (OIP) protocol to disguise network activity as normal SolarWinds Orion traffic. The connection with the C2 server will contain a randomly generated “customer ID” that allows the adversary to track different compromised systems.

To establish C2, it will construct and resolve the subdomains of “avsvmcloud.com” using a domain generation algorithm (DGA). The following format is used to generate the domain name:

–Begin format of the domain name–
.appsync-api.eu-west-1.avsvmcloud.com
.appsync-api.us-west-2.avsvmcloud.com
.appsync-api.us-east-1.avsvmcloud.com
.appsync-api.us-east-2.avsvmcloud.com
–End format of the domain name–

It will attempt to make a Canonical Name (CNAME) query according to different third-level domain names in combination with the DGA to verify the C2 server is accessible before executing its command control session.

–Begin domain names combined with DGA–
6a57jk2ba1d9keg15cbg.appsync-api.eu-west-1.avsvmcloud.com
7sbvaemscs0mc925tb99.appsync-api.us-west-2.avsvmcloud.com
gq1h856599gqh538acqn.appsync-api.us-west-2.avsvmcloud.com
ihvpgv9psvq02ffo77et.appsync-api.us-east-2.avsvmcloud.com
k5kcubuassl3alrf7gm3.appsync-api.eu-west-1.avsvmcloud.com
mhdosoksaccf9sni9icp.appsync-api.eu-west-1.avsvmcloud.com
–End domain names plus DGA–

Outbound communications are encrypted using an embedded class named “CryptoHelper.” The class contains two functions named “CreateSecureString” and “Base64Encode.” The function “CreateSecureString” creates a random byte and then utilizes this random byte to encode the string provided. The randomly generated byte, used as the XOR key, will be stored at offset 0x00 of the encoded string — allowing the adversary to decrypt the traffic received from this implant. The function “CreateSecureString” takes two arguments, a byte array which will be the data targeted for encryption and a bool variable. If this variable is set to “true” the function will “OR” the generated “XOR” key byte with the value 128 before using it to XOR encode the provided data. It then calls the Base64Encode function to further obfuscate the communication.

–Begin CreateSecureString Function–
private static string CreateSecureString(byte[] data, bool flag)
       {
           byte[] bytes = new byte[data.Length + 1];
           bytes[0] = (byte)new Random().Next(1, (int)sbyte.MaxValue);
           if (flag)
               bytes[0] |= (byte)128;
           for (int index = 1; index < bytes.Length; ++index)
               bytes[index] = (byte)((uint)data[index – 1] ^ (uint)bytes[0]);
           return Base64Encode(bytes, true);
       }
–End CreateSecureString Function–

The Base64Encode function is a modified version of the Base64 algorithm that uses the custom alphabet, “ph2eifo3n5utg1j8d94qrvbmk0sal76c.” This custom Base64 encoding makes it harder to interpret network traffic sent between this malicious implant and the remote C2 server. The custom Base64 alphabet and algorithm utilized would be required to decode the network traffic.

–Begin Base64Encode Function–
private static string Base64Encode(byte[] bytes, bool rt)
    {
       string str1 = OrionImprovementBusinessLayer.ZipHelper.Unzip(“K8gwSs1MyzfOMy0tSTfMskixNCksKkvKzTYoTswxN0sGAA==”);
       string str2 = “”;
       uint num1 = 0;
       int num2 = 0;
       foreach (byte num3 in bytes)
       {
        num1 |= (uint) num3 << num2;
        for (num2 += 8; num2 >= 5; num2 -= 5)
        {
           str2 += str1[(int) num1 & 31].ToString();
           num1 >>= 5;
        }
       }
       if (num2 > 0)
       {
        if (rt)
           num1 |= (uint) (new Random().Next() << num2);
        str2 += str1[(int) num1 & 31].ToString();
       }
       return str2;
    }
–End Base64Encode Function–

**COLLECT SYSTEM INFORMATION**
The collection of system description info is carried out by the CollectSystemDescription function.
It will collect the following information:

Victim domain SID
Domain name
Hostname
Username
Operating System (OS) version
System directory
Environment tick count – the time since the system was last rebooted.

**UPLOAD SYSTEM INFORMATION**
The “UploadSystemDescription” function is used to exfiltrate gathered system information. It parses through HTTP session information to form a full HTTP request that is sent to the remote C2 server. The modified version of the FNV-1a hash algorithm is utilized to hash certain words associated with outbound HTTP requests, such as “accept” (Hash: 2734787258623754862) and “content-type” (Hash: 6116246686670134098). It then parses through the provided HTTP session data using these hash values, rather than HTTP strings, to obfuscate the functionality of this code. This obfuscation makes it more difficult to manually or heuristically identify the functions intent to generate an outbound HTTP session.

**BLOCK LIST CHECKING FUNCTIONS**
The Update function is critical to starting the SUNBURST C2 functionality. Early in its execution, the Update function calls the UpdateNotification() function. If that returns a “False”, indicating one of the hard-coded block list processes is running, the SUNBURST malware will not initiate its C2 session. The malicious class “OrionImprovementBusinessLayer”, containing the SUNBURST module, will effectively be disabled. However, the parent SolarWinds process running the malicious DLL 32519b85c0b422e4656de6e6c41878e95fd95026267daab4215ee59c107d6c77 will not be interrupted.

The “TrackProcesses” function queries a list of running processes on the target system and then passes the process names to the “SearchAssemblies” function, which hashes their process names and compares the result hashes to the hard-coded process hash list stored in the list “assemblyTimeStamps.” If any of the target processes are running, the function will return True.
