Lunker: The Advanced Phishing Framework Joshua Perrymon CEO, PacketFocus

Agenda Intro What is Lunker? What can it do? Attack Theory Payloads The Old Way Demo Questions

Who am I? Joshua Perrymon, CEO PacketFocus 12 yrs Experience “Ethical Hacking” Over 200 Spear-Phishing attacks in 4-5 languages 85% Success ratio using “Blacklist” emails from the Internet MUCH higher using “Whitelist” Emails

What is Phishing Phishing is a method of Social Engineering used to gain credentials, or have users perform a specific action. We have all gotten these types of emails. Sent out to Millions Usually triggers SPAM filtering alerts Uses a known phishing site that is usually takes down within a couple days if possible

What is Spear Phishing A directed Phishing Attack Only targets a handful of users Emails are harvested from the Internet or other public places Very hard to stop as the attack isn’t sent out all over the Internet

Attacking up the OSI We have been moving up the OSI (Open System Interconnection) model with attacks.

Attacking up the OSI model cont.

How these attacks work

Doing this the “OLD” Way This takes time. But doesn’t require a lot of technical skills. Find emails Find site to be phished Create the site Setup php mail spoof Test Send Monitor Before Lunker setting up a phishing attack required a lot more planning and technical details. You have to make a new phishing template by hand. Setup the backend scripts to capture the credentials, find a server to host it on, figure out how to relay a spookef email, login and either tail apache ot run TCPDUmp to monitor for attacks. This is now somewhat automated with the new framework.

Using the Phishing Framework Easy and repeatable Show step by step process on using lunker. Use camtasia or animations.

Step 2: Enter Client Info PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon Step 2: Enter Client Info

PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon Client Details This is entered into the local database. This allows an audit trail of tests configuration and results. The idea is to document each step automatically, because no-one else wants to do it. Enter URL and IP Info if provided

Step3: Email Recon PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon

But everyone uses their company email address right???? PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon But everyone uses their company email address right???? This is hard to protect against most times. Usually, internal email addresses must be used in business communication. This can be leaked to the Internet Search Engines. Search “@acme.com” and look through the results.

Step 4: Phishing Analysis PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon

PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon On the lookout This module will actively search the target URL’s and IP’s in scope to identify potential Phishing Targets. Any site that requires credentials remotely should be considered and identified. Top targets include Webmail, VPN, and website logins. The tool will identify these portals and return analysis based on previous information gathered.

Step5: Select the Bait PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon

PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon Email is easy Most often, a simple email from spoofed technical support will be enough to have a user form over login and password details. Analysis will identify token passwords. Numeric entries should trigger token MITM functions. Start analysis timers.

PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon Verify it works

PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon Now what? Login to the Phishing site locally to make sure it captures the password. It’s easy to email the credentials. Be responsible and store them encrypted. Modules could auto login based on template used. Get email(), Get Attachment(), Get Keyword(), Get Subject().

PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon Redirect Confusion

PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon Where am I? Redirection must be used after the user logs in the first time. Error message, Google, etc Redirect to real site. Delete email sent to user after getting credentials.

Test Environment PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon

PacketFocus.com 2008 - Jperrymon Test 1.2.3. This module launches the local email client and the locally hosted phishing site at the same time. The tester sends the spoofed email to a locally configured account. This account is checked by the Email Client as would a normal user. Look for mistakes. The smallest error can cause the attack not to work.

Thank You Thanks for sitting through this presentation. The main aspect to take away from this is how attacks are moving up the OSI model and targeting the user (layer 8). It doesn’t take a lot of technical skills to perform these types of attacks. User Awareness is the only way to mitigate this risk. We can’t rely on technology.
