Cado Labs’ honeypot infrastructure was recently compromised by a complex and multi-stage cryptojacking attack.
Although the attack utilised many TeamTNT TTPs, It is assessed with high confidence that the group WatchDog is continuing to repurpose TeamTNT payloads – as they’ve done in the past.
The attack targets exposed Docker Engine API endpoints and Redis servers, and can propagate in a worm-like fashion.
Several sophisticated techniques were employed, including timestomping, process hiding and exploitation of a misconfigured Redis database that leaves it vulnerable to remote code execution.
