Threat: Backdoor.Win32.Emegrab.b
Vulnerability: Remote Stack Buffer Overflow (SEH)
Family: Emegrab
Type: PE32
MD5: 19a14d0414aec62ef38378de2e8b259d
Vuln ID: MVID-2024-0675
ASLR: False
DEP: False
CFG: False
Safe SEH: False
Disclosure: 03/13/2024
Description: The malware listens on TCP port 2323 (typically) however, have seen it use 4823. On subsequent restarts it has used 3012, 3182, 4735, 4578, 4133, 5347, 4978 then eventually reuses port 2323. Third-party adversaries who can reach the server can send a specially crafted payload triggering a stack buffer overflow overwriting ECX, EIP registers and Structured Exception Handler (SEH).
