SAN FRANCISCO — Russian hackers used emails disguised to look as Gmail security updates to hack into the computers of the Democratic National Committee
(DNC) and members of Hillary Clinton’s top campaign staff, according to a report by the SecureWorks cybersecurity company.
美国的安全公司言之凿凿:来自俄罗斯的黑客们通过邮件给其重要的关注目标发现假装为Gmail的安全更新的邮件,而其实是钓鱼邮件攻击。这些重要的目标是与2016年的美国
大选相关的重要政治人物:民主党全国委员会的成员以及克拉里竞选团队的高级职员。
The emails were sent to 108 members of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s campaign and 20 people clicked on them, at least four people
clicking more than once, Secureworks’ research found. The emails were sent to another 16 people from the DNC and four people clicked on them, the report
said.
根据该安全公司的分析结果,这些钓鱼邮件采用213个短连接的方式给民主党竞选团队的108名成员[这其中有66人的邮件地址是从公开渠道获得的,但是另外42人没有公开,应该是从一些特殊的情报渠道获得]发信,而这其中有20人点击了这些邮件,并至少有4个人点击次数超过2次。与此同时,民主党全国委员会的另外16人也收到了该邮件,其中4人点击了该邮件的短网址。

The hacks targeted the Democratic National Committee. A previous version of this article incorrectly identified the Democratic National Convention as the
target.
一点更正:DNC正确的翻译是民主党全国委员会,因为全称是Democratic National Committee,而不是the Democratic National Convention。
具体的危害体现为钓鱼邮件的危害:
Spearphishing details
The short links in the spearphishing emails redirected victims to a TG-4127-controlled URL that spoofed a legitimate Google domain. A Base64-encoded
string containing the victim's full email address is passed with this URL, prepopulating a fake Google login page displayed to the victim. If a victim
enters their credentials, TG-4127 can establish a session with Google and access the victim's account. The threat actors may be able to keep this session
alive and maintain persistent access.
点评:如果报道属实,的确符合定向Target目标明确的属性,但是好像不够高级Advanced!通过钓鱼邮件,让受害者自己主动提交自己账户的登录密码,看起来方法简单粗暴,
倒是很符合美国人的性格:直接。 |
