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

SQLite databases can be modified in such a way that they execute malicious code inside other apps that rely on them to store data, security researchers have revealed.<\/p>\n

In demos presented at the DEF CON security conference<\/a> in Las Vegas today, Check Point security researcher Omer Gull showed demos of a tainted SQLite database hijacking the command and control server of a malware operation, and malware using SQLite to achieve persistence on iOS devices.<\/p>\n

Clever SQLite attack lets hackers get iOS persistence<\/h3>\n

The idea is that vulnerabilities in how third-party apps read data from SQLite databases allows a third-party to hide malicious code in the SQLite database’s data.<\/p>\n

When the third-party app, such as iMessage, reads the tainted SQLite database, it also inadvertantly executes the hidden code.<\/p>\n

In the iMessage demo he presented at DEF CON, Gull showed how malware or a threat actor that manages to replace or edit the “AddressBook.sqlitedb” file can insert malicious code inside an iPhone’s addressbook.<\/p>\n

When iMessage queries this SQLite file, which iMessage does at regular intervals, the malicious code runs, and allows the malware to gain boot persistence on the device.<\/p>\n

While this scenario seems implausible, this isn’t as hard as it seems. Gull said Apple doesn’t sign SQLite data files, so replacing this file is trivial. Therefore, a threat actor has a simple way they can use to use to gain boot persistence on iPhones and macOS devices.<\/p>\n

\n<\/section>\n

For its part, Apple issued fixes (CVE-2019-8600, CVE-2019-8598, CVE-2019-8602, CVE-2019-8577) for the SQLite attack vector in May, with macOS Mojave 10.14.5<\/a>, iOS 12.3<\/a>, tvOS 12.3<\/a>, and watchOS 5.2.1<\/a>. Users who delayed updating their devices are still vulnerable to this attack.<\/p>\n

SQLite flaws can be used to hijack malware operations<\/h3>\n

But there are other scenarios where these vulnerabilities can be used for “good.” Those cases are against malware.<\/p>\n

For example, browsers store user data and passwords inside SQLite databases. Info-stealers — a class of malware — is specifically designed for stealing these SQLite user data files and uploading the files to a remote command-and-control (C&C) server.<\/p>\n

These C&C servers are usually coded in PHP and work by parsing the SQLite files to extract the user’s browser data so they can show it inside the malware’s web-based control panel.<\/p>\n

Gull said that like in the case of the iMessage attack, the SQLite vulnerabilities can be used to execute code on the malware’s C&C servers and take over crooks’ systems.<\/p>\n

“Given the fact that SQLite is practically built-in to almost any platform, we think that we’ve barely scratched the tip of the iceberg when it comes to its exploitation potential,” Gull said.<\/p>\n

Apps that rely on SQLite include the likes of Skype, any web browser, any Android device, any iTunes instance, Dropbox sync clients, car multimedia systems, television sets and set-top cable boxes, and a bunch of other apps<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“We hope that the security community will take this innovative research and the tools<\/a> released and push it even further.”<\/p>\n
