In DHCP starvation attacks, an attacker floods the DHCP server with DHCP requests to consume all available IP addresses that the DHCP server can allocate. After these IP addresses are allocated, the server cannot allocate any more addresses and this situation leads to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack as new clients cannot gain network access. |

NiceCurl and TameCat custom backdoors leveraged by Damselfly APT |
NiceCurl and TameCat are two custom backdoor variants recently leveraged in malicious campaigns attributed to the Damselfly APT (also known as APT42). These backdoors are reported to be delivered mostly by spear-phishing campaigns and used by the threat actors for the purpose of initial access to the targeted environments. While NiceCurl is a VBScript-based malware with capabilities to download and execute additional modules, TameCat backdoor is used to execute PowerShell and C# scripts as well as download additional arbitrary content. |

The infection chain for this campaign initiates from an email file with an HTML attachment. This HTML file uses a background image that resembles what looks like a blank Microsoft Document file, where instructions on how to fix the offline viewing of the file can be seen. This is an attempt to trick victims into pasting malicious PowerShell code into a Windows Terminal. Once the code is executed, an HTA file will be downloaded and will continue to execute, eventually downloading a follow-up ZIP file. Once extracted, it will launch an open-source automation engine called AutoIt to execute a malicious AutoIt script named script.a3x that will eventually load the Darkgate trojan. |
