The exploit kit, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nao-sec.org\/2018\/09\/hello-fallout-exploit-kit.html\" target=\"_blank\">nao-sec says<\/a> uses <a href=\"https:\/\/nvd.nist.gov\/vuln\/detail\/CVE-2018-4878\" target=\"_blank\">CVE-2018-4878<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/nvd.nist.gov\/vuln\/detail\/CVE-2018-8174\" target=\"_blank\">CVE-2018-8174<\/a>, using first VBScript, then Flash vulnerabilities to infect the victim.<\/p>\n<p>At the initial discovery of the kit in Japan, Smoke Loader was the malware downloader installed by Fallout. A post by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fireeye.com\/blog\/threat-research\/2018\/09\/fallout-exploit-kit-used-in-malvertising-campaign-to-deliver-gandcrab-ransomware.html\" target=\"_blank\">researchers at FireEye<\/a> says that their team also found Fallout, this time in the Middle East, where it was being used to infect systems with GandCrab ransomware. According to the FireEye researchers, Fallout fingerprints the user browser profile, searching for users in particular regions. If the victim machine is not in a targeted area, the user is redirected to a simple bad advertising site. If the user is in a region of interest, then the system is sent to a site where the process of downloading malware continues.<\/p>\n<p>Code analysis shows much of the malware loader coming in code buried in &lt;span&gt; tags on the website pointed to by the kit. Depending on the system hit by the malicious software, the result can be ransomware (in the case of Windows systems) or PUPs (potentially unwanted programs) in the case of Mac systems. These PUPs, while not officially classed as malware, can consist of programs such as adware, unwanted browser helpers, or toolbar add-ons for browsers.<\/p>\n<p>As with many malware packages, Fallout exploits vulnerabilities that have been patched in up-to-date software. According to the FireEye researchers, this is a partial explanation for the geographical targeting of the campaign because Asia, Africa, and the Middle East are areas in which systems are statistically more likely to be behind on updates and patches.<\/p>\n<p>As protection against this new malware, administrators are urged to keep systems fully patched and up to date, and to stress proper online behavior to employees and system users.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Content:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.deusm.com\/darkreading\/MarilynCohodas\/BHEURUOPE2018-vplug_Web_Banners_468x60_Sponsor.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"468\" height=\"60\"\/><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Black Hat Europe returns to London Dec. 3-6, 2018, with hands-on technical Trainings, cutting-edge Briefings, Arsenal open-source tool demonstrations, top-tier security solutions, and service providers in the Business Hall.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><em><strong>Click for information on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackhat.com\/eu-18\/\" target=\"_blank\">conference<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/blackhat.tech.ubm.com\/europe\/2018\/?_mc=nlad_x_insecr_le_tsnr_insec_x_x-bht&amp;\" target=\"_blank\">to register.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"italic\">Curtis Franklin Jr. is Senior Editor at Dark Reading.
