\"DNA\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Web-based DNA sequencer applications are under attack from a mysterious hacker group using a still-unpatched zero-day to take control of targeted devices.<\/p>\n

The attacks have started two days ago, on June 12, and are still going on, according to Ankit Anubhav<\/a>, a security researcher with NewSky Security, who shared his findings with ZDNet<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Hackers planting shells on DNA sequencer web apps<\/h3>\n

Anubhav says the group, which operates from an Iran-based IP address, has been scanning the internet for dnaLIMS, a web-based application installed by companies and research institutes to handle DNA sequencing operations<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The researcher told ZDNet<\/em> the hacker is exploiting CVE-2017-6526<\/a>, a vulnerability in dnaLIMS that has not been patched to this day after the vendor was notified back in 2017.<\/p>\n

Anubhav says the attackers are using this vulnerability to plant shells that allow them to control the underlying web server from remote locations.<\/p>\n

Attack motives unknown<\/h3>\n

It is unclear how the group is using these backdoors into hacked systems, post infection. Anubhav says there could be two scenarios.<\/p>\n

In the first, the attacker may be looking to exfiltrate hashes of DNA sequences from the application’s database.<\/p>\n

\n<\/section>\n

“DNA theft in specific cases can be fruitful,” Anubhav said. “Either it can be sold on the black market, or a high profile attacker can actually be looking for a specific person’s data.”<\/p>\n

Second, and the most plausible scenario, is that the attackers might be using the infected servers as part of a botnet, or using the shell to plant cryptocurrency miners on the hijacked systems.<\/p>\n

A previous ZDNet report highlighted that most IoT botnets nowadays are the works of attention-seeking kids that take random exploits from the ExploitDB exploit database and assemble botnets at random<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This might be one of those cases, with this botnet’s author using an exploit at random, not knowing what they’re actually targeting.<\/p>\n

“This particular attack may not be useful for a script kiddie or a botnet operator,” Anubhav said, pointing out that there are only between 35 and 50 such highly-complex DNA sequencer apps available online, a number far too small to build a botnet around.<\/p>\n

Group also targeted routers and Struts servers<\/h3>\n

Furthermore, the theory that this might be the work of a script kiddie playing with random exploits, rather than a nation-state sponsored group, becomes more believable when we look at the historical activity coming from the attacker’s IP address.<\/p>\n

Per NewSky’s own records<\/a>, the attacker has been seen using the nmap tool to scan the internet and attempt to use two other exploits to take over systems — one for Zyxel routers<\/a>, and a second for Apache Struts<\/a> installations.<\/p>\n

“We can not decide on the motive of these attacks just yet,” Anubhav told ZDNet<\/em>. “Regardless, the DNA sequencer systems which hold this confidential information can get pwned.”<\/p>\n

With the vendor refusing to patch the security flaw back in 2017, these systems remain open for attacks.<\/p>\n

The dangers that these systems pose can only be evaluated on a per-case basis. If the DNA sequencing data is anonymized, any stolen data will most likely be useless. If not, then a serious breach may occur if the hackers have stolen any info from these systems.<\/p>\n

Sure, DNA data may be useless right now, but with biometric solutions spreading every year, non-anonymized data might be actually worth something in a few years from now.<\/p>\n

More IOCs about this attack are available in<\/em> Anubhav’s report<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n
