<p><strong>Five new additional pieces of malware code discovered that contain unique portions of code related to the the SWIFT attacks.</strong></p><p>Recently, malware <a href="http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/swift-attackers-malware-linked-more-financial-attacks" target="_blank">analysts at Symantec</a> discovered two subroutines that were shared amongst North Korea’s Lazarus’ groups Operation Blockbuster malware and two samples of malware from the recent SWIFT attacks.</p><p>The shared subroutines are displayed as evidence to relate the SWIFT intrusion activity to the Lazarus group. Symantec’s analysis was utilized in the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/27/business/dealbook/north-korea-linked-to-digital-thefts-from-global-banks.html?_r=0" target="_blank">The New York Times story</a> on May 27, 2016. Their findings supported a claim that these were the only two pieces of software with this shared code.</p><p>The Anomali Labs team has conducted deeper research into a very large malware data repository. This process utilized the yara signature below to search for the shared subroutines. At first, we believed it would produce a lot of false positives. Instead, this search not only failed to result in any false positives, but also turned up five other pieces of malware which share this code. We see this as a possible attribution of the Lazarus group attacks to other attacks that involved these same five pieces of malware code.</p><table border="1" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="86">Malware Family</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="160">Md5 hash</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="221">Notes</td></tr><tr><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="86">SWIFT BanSwift</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="160">5d0ffbc8389f27b0649696f0ef5b3cfe</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="221">evchk.bat dropper</td></tr><tr><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="86">SWIFT Fake Foxit Reader</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="160">0b9bf941e2539eaa34756a9e2c0d5343</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="221">A Fake Foxit Reader submitted to Virustotal from Vietnam in December 2015 (similar sample detailed at <a href="https://blogs.mcafee.com/mcafee-labs/attacks-swift-banking-system-benefit-insider-knowledge/" target="_blank">https://blogs.mcafee.com/mcafee-labs/attacks-swift-banking-system-benefit-insider-knowledge/</a>)</td></tr><tr><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="86">SMBWorm</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="160">558b020ce2c80710605ed30678b6fd0c</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="221">Known North Korean Malware</td></tr><tr><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="86">Memory dump with SMBWorm</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="160">96f4e767aa6bb1a1a5ab22e0662eec86</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="221"> </td></tr><tr><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="86">Unknown “hkcmd” tool</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="160">b0ec717aeece8d5d865a4f7481e941c5</td><td style="width: 86px; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;" width="221">1st Submitted from Canada, likely from an AV organization. 2016/04/22.
