Межпроцессное взаимодействие
Sub-techniques (3)
Adversaries may abuse inter-process communication (IPC) mechanisms for local code or command execution. IPC is typically used by processes to share data, communicate with each other, or synchronize execution. IPC is also commonly used to avoid situations such as deadlocks, which occurs when processes are stuck in a cyclic waiting pattern. Adversaries may abuse IPC to execute arbitrary code or commands. IPC mechanisms may differ depending on OS, but typically exists in a form accessible through programming languages/libraries or native interfaces such as Windows Dynamic Data Exchange or Component Object Model. Linux environments support several different IPC mechanisms, two of which being sockets and pipes.(Citation: Linux IPC) Higher level execution mediums, such as those of Command and Scripting Interpreters, may also leverage underlying IPC mechanisms. Adversaries may also use Remote Services such as Distributed Component Object Model to facilitate remote IPC execution.(Citation: Fireeye Hunting COM June 2019)

Название | Описание |
---|---|
Raspberry Robin |
Raspberry Robin contains an embedded custom Tor network client that communicates with the primary payload via shared process memory.(Citation: TrendMicro RaspberryRobin 2022) |
ROADSWEEP |
ROADSWEEP can pipe command output to a targeted process.(Citation: Mandiant ROADSWEEP August 2022) |
PITSTOP |
PITSTOP can listen over the Unix domain socket located at `/data/runtime/cockpit/wd.fd`.(Citation: Mandiant Cutting Edge Part 3 February 2024) |
Uroburos |
Uroburos has the ability to move data between its kernel and user mode components, generally using named pipes.(Citation: Joint Cybersecurity Advisory AA23-129A Snake Malware May 2023) |
HyperStack |
HyperStack can connect to the IPC$ share on remote machines.(Citation: Accenture HyperStack October 2020) |
Cyclops Blink |
Cyclops Blink has the ability to create a pipe to enable inter-process communication.(Citation: Trend Micro Cyclops Blink March 2022) |
RotaJakiro |
When executing with non-root permissions, RotaJakiro uses the the `shmget API` to create shared memory between other known RotaJakiro processes. This allows processes to communicate with each other and share their PID.(Citation: RotaJakiro 2021 netlab360 analysis) |
LunarWeb |
LunarWeb can retrieve output from arbitrary processes and shell commands via a pipe.(Citation: ESET Turla Lunar toolset May 2024) |
Ninja |
Ninja can use pipes to redirect the standard input and the standard output.(Citation: Kaspersky ToddyCat June 2022) |

Disable or Remove Feature or Program |
Remove or deny access to unnecessary and potentially vulnerable software to prevent abuse by adversaries. |
Software Configuration |
Implement configuration changes to software (other than the operating system) to mitigate security risks associated to how the software operates. |
Application Isolation and Sandboxing |
Restrict execution of code to a virtual environment on or in transit to an endpoint system. |
Privileged Account Management |
Manage the creation, modification, use, and permissions associated to privileged accounts, including SYSTEM and root. |
Behavior Prevention on Endpoint |
Use capabilities to prevent suspicious behavior patterns from occurring on endpoint systems. This could include suspicious process, file, API call, etc. behavior. |
Application Developer Guidance |
This mitigation describes any guidance or training given to developers of applications to avoid introducing security weaknesses that an adversary may be able to take advantage of. |
Обнаружение
Monitor for strings in files/commands, loaded DLLs/libraries, or spawned processes that are associated with abuse of IPC mechanisms.
