Hindistonning IT xavfsizlik kompaniyasi OpsShield dushanba kuni kiberhujumga uchradi, natijada mijozlarga cPGuard'ning zararli versiyalari tarqatildi.
OpsShield server himoyasi va veb-xavfsizlik dasturiy ta'minotiga ixtisoslashgan, cPGuard esa uning eng mashhur mahsuloti bo'lib, Linux veb-xosting serverlari uchun mo'ljallangan.
Kompaniyaning hodisa haqidagi xabariga ko'ra, hujumchilar buzilgan hisob ma'lumotlari yordamida yangilanish tarqatish infratuzilmasi (CDN)ga kirishgan va cPGuard yangilanish kanali orqali zararli skript tarqatishgan.
cPGuard 5.88.12–5.88.19 versiyalarida zararli kod mavjud edi. Ta'minot zanjiri hujumi 12 soat ichida aniqlangan va soxta yangilanishlar taxminan 70 daqiqa davomida tarqatilgan.
Hujumchilar avval kompaniyaning hisob-kitob va litsenziyalash serverini nishonga olishgan. Ular mijoz hisobini ro'yxatdan o'tkazib, bepul cPGuard sinov versiyasini buyurtma qilishgan va litsenziyalash tizimi bilan aloqasini o'rganishgan, so'ngra portalga maxsus so'rovlar yuborishni boshlashgan.
Hisob-kitob va litsenziyalash serverida buyruq bajarish huquqini qo'lga kiritgach, xakerlar ma'lumot to'plashni boshlashgan va keyin o'g'irlangan kirish kaliti yordamida soxta cPGuard yangilanishini yuklashgan, deb tushuntiradi kompaniya yangilangan hisobotda.
Yangilanish buzilish oynasi davomida OpsShield yangilanish infratuzilmasini tekshirgan serverlarda root huquqi bilan bajarilgan. Shu bilan birga, hujumchilar kompaniyaning uchta bulut serverini nusxalashgan.
Yangilanishlardagi zararli skript ma'lumot to'plash va uni buzilgan hisob ostida OpsShield litsenziyalash serveriga yuklash uchun mo'ljallangan edi. Kompaniyaning ma'lumotiga ko'ra, xakerlar skript tomonidan yuklangan ma'lumotlardan 32 ta to'plangan faylni olishgan, har biri turli mijoz serveridan.
Bundan tashqari, skript mijozlar serverlarining vaqtinchalik jildida yashirin root shell va ba'zi fayllarni joylashtirgan.
OpsShield hisob-kitobiga ko'ra, 2 950 ta server soxta cPGuard yangilanishlarini bajargan va hujumchilar taxminan 7 900 ta mijoz hisob yozuvini nusxalashgan, ularda ismlar, kompaniya, manzillar, elektron pochta manzillari va xesh-parollar mavjud edi.
Barcha parol xeshlari, root SSH kalitlari va MySQL root parollari, shuningdek, zararlangan mijoz serverlaridagi shell tarixi buzilgan deb hisoblanishi va almashtirilishi kerak.
"Agar cPGuard o'sha oynada onlayn bo'lmagan bo'lsa, sizning serveringiz soxta yangilanishni olmagan. Shunga qaramay, siz hisob-kitob portali parolingizni qayta o'rnatishingiz kerak", — deydi OpsShield.
Kompaniya hujumchilarni ular tegishi mumkin bo'lgan barcha serverlardan haydaganini, o'z hisobidagi maxfiy ma'lumotlarni qayta o'rnatganini, hujumchining SSH kalitini va bulut hisobidagi klonlangan aktivlarni o'chirganini, shuningdek, barcha serverlaridagi SSH kalitlari va parollarni almashtirganini aytadi.
Bundan tashqari, kompaniya cPGuard litsenziya shaxsiy/ommaviy kalitlarini qayta berishni boshlagan, chunki hujumchilar ularni buzishgan, hisob-kitob portali kirish sessiyalarini qayta o'rnatgan va tegishli API kalitlarini almashtirgan, shuningdek, hisob-kitob, litsenziyalash va ichki boshqaruv serverlarini qayta qurmoqda.
OpsShield shuningdek, cPGuard yangilanishlarini (5.88.25 va undan keyingi versiyalar) chiqardi, ular skript qoldirgan yashirin root shell va qo'shimcha fayllarni o'chiradi, hamda buzilish ko'rsatkichlarini (IoC) e'lon qildi.
"Bunday hujumlar tezroq va arzonroq bajarilmoqda. Bizning javobimiz — avval o'z yangilanish va imzolash jarayonimizni mustahkamlash, so'ngra bu yerda o'rganganlarimizni to'g'ridan-to'g'ri cPGuard'ga qayta kiritish", — deb ta'kidlaydi kompaniya.

Indian IT security company OpsShield on Monday fell victim to a cyberattack that resulted in malicious versions of cPGuard being served to its customers.
OpsShield specializes in server protection and web security software, and cPGuard is its most notable product, designed for Linux web hosting servers.
According to the company’s incident notice, the attackers used compromised credentials to access its update distribution infrastructure (CDN) and distribute a malicious script via cPGuard’s update channel.
cPGuard versions 5.88.12–5.88.19 contained the malicious code. The supply chain attack was discovered within 12 hours and the fake updates were distributed for roughly 70 minutes.
The attackers first targeted the company’s billing and licensing server. They registered a customer account and ordered a free cPGuard trial to study its communication with the licensing system, then started sending crafted requests to the portal.
After obtaining command execution on the billing and licensing server, the hackers started collecting data and then uploaded a fake cPGuard update using a stolen access key, the company explains in an updated report.
The update was executed as root on the servers that polled OpsShield’s update infrastructure during the compromise window. At the same time, the attackers copied three of the company’s cloud servers.
The malicious script in the updates was designed to collect data and upload it to OpsShield’s licensing server under a compromised account. According to the company, the hackers retrieved 32 collected files from the data uploaded by the script, each from a different customer server.
Additionally, the script deployed a hidden root shell and certain files in the temp folder of customers’ servers.
OpsShield estimates that 2,950 servers executed the fake cPGuard updates, and that the attackers copied approximately 7,900 client account records containing names, company, addresses, emails, and hashed passwords.
All password hashes, root SSH keys, and MySQL root passwords, as well as shell history on the infected customer servers, should be considered compromised and rotated.
“If cPGuard was not online during that window, your server did not receive the fake update. You should still reset your billing portal password,” OpsShield says.
The company says it evicted the attackers from all servers they may have touched, reset secrets on its account, removed the attacker’s SSH key and cloned assets from its cloud account, and replaced all SSH keys and passwords across its servers.
Additionally, it started reissuing all cPGuard license private/public keys because the attackers compromised them, reset all billing portal login sessions and rotated associated API keys, and is rebuilding its billing, licensing, and internal management servers.
OpsShield also released cPGuard updates (version 5.88.25 and later) that remove the hidden root shell and the additional files left behind by the script, and published indicators of compromise (IoCs).
“Attacks like this one are getting faster and cheaper to run. Our answer is to harden our own update and signing process first, and then to put what we learned here straight back into cPGuard for you,” the company notes.
