Mallory pivots from this family to the IOCs, detections, and named campaigns that touch your stack, and pages you when something new lands.
10 distinct techniques documented for this family, organized by ATT&CK tactic.
T1027: Obfuscated Files Information Implementation details: Stack strings for passwords and paths prevent static extraction.
T1036.004: Masquerading Implementation details: Alters process arguments to mimic benign daemons like qmgr.
T1070.003: Clear History Implementation details: Injects HISTFILE=/dev/null into environment variables.
Most critical of the novel BPFDoor versions are httpShell, which prioritizes C2 concealment within HTTP traffic to allow BPF logic to view for certain magic markers in inner packets, and icmpShell, which creates an interactive shell to impede static firewall rules while also supporting bidirectional ICMP tunnels, RC4 encryption, and UDP/ICMP hole-punching | httpShell, which prioritizes C2 concealment within HTTP traffic to allow BPF logic to view for certain magic markers in inner packets
T1071.001: Application Layer Protocol Implementation details: Blends in by utilizing formatted HTTP POST requests with hardcoded URIs up to 100-byte hexadecimal bodies. Variation: httpShell
T1090: Proxy Implementation details: Uses ICMP relay to bounce traffic through internal segments.
