Silent Push Traffic Origin Data Combined with Residential Proxy Data Uncovers Suspicious Chinese VPN

Description: An investigation using Silent Push's Traffic Origin and residential proxy data revealed a suspicious Chinese VPN provider. The analysis focused on IP address 205.198.91.155, which showed unusual traffic from Russia, China, Myanmar, Iran, and Venezuela. This IP was linked to the domain lvcha.in, hosting a Chinese-language VPN. Further investigation uncovered nearly 50 related domains promoting the same VPN, suggesting attempts to bypass country-level firewalls. The VPN's infrastructure was found to use residential proxies and had connections to various high-risk countries. This case study demonstrates the importance of verifying physical and technical behaviors of connections to protect against fraud and state-sponsored actors using stolen identities and spoofed locations.

Dissecting UAT-8099: New persistence mechanisms and regional focus

Description: UAT-8099, a threat actor targeting vulnerable IIS servers across Asia, has launched a new campaign from late 2025 to early 2026. The group's tactics have evolved, focusing on Thailand and Vietnam, and employing web shells, PowerShell scripts, and the GotoHTTP tool for remote access. New variants of BadIIS malware now include region-specific features, with separate versions targeting Vietnam and Thailand. The actor has expanded their toolkit to include utilities for log removal, file protection, and anti-rootkit capabilities. They've also adapted their persistence methods, creating hidden user accounts and leveraging legitimate tools to evade detection. The campaign demonstrates significant operational overlaps with the WEBJACK campaign, including shared malware hashes, C2 infrastructure, and victimology.

Cryptocurrency Sector Targeted with New Tooling and AI-Enabled Social Engineering

Description: North Korean threat actor UNC1069 has evolved its tactics to target the cryptocurrency and decentralized finance sectors. In a recent intrusion, they deployed seven unique malware families, including new tools SILENCELIFT, DEEPBREATH, and CHROMEPUSH, designed to capture host and victim data. The attack utilized social engineering involving a compromised Telegram account, fake Zoom meeting, and reported AI-generated video. UNC1069 has shifted from spear-phishing to targeting Web3 industry entities like centralized exchanges, software developers, and venture capital firms. The intrusion demonstrated sophisticated techniques to bypass macOS security features and harvest credentials, browser data, and cryptocurrency information. This marks a significant expansion in UNC1069's capabilities and highlights their focus on financial theft and fueling future social engineering campaigns.

Technical Analysis of GuLoader Obfuscation Techniques

Description: GuLoader, a malware downloader active since 2019, primarily delivers RATs and information stealers. It employs sophisticated anti-analysis techniques, including polymorphic code for dynamic constant construction and complex exception-based control flow obfuscation. The malware has evolved to handle multiple exception types, making tracing its execution flow challenging. GuLoader uses dynamic hashing, encrypted strings, and stack-based string encryption to conceal critical information. It often hosts payloads on trusted cloud services to bypass reputation-based detection. The malware's consistent development and updating of anti-analysis techniques suggest it will remain a significant threat in the future.
