It’s a rainy Friday to close out the week here at [@et\_labs](https://twitter.com/ET_Labs)- with your help we released 93 sigs out into the ET Open ruleset - lets chat on them and thank those that contributed to their existence! [https://rules.emergingthreatspro.com/open/](https://t.co/j7Vc3tNy6L)

The infosec researcher community continues to tip us up to Gamaredon APT activity daily! This is a great resource for giving us visibility and is such a timely heads-up to new domains and activity.

From [@malPileDiver](https://twitter.com/malPileDiver), thanks on the tags that led to 2044782-2044786 & 2044836-2044839. These domain alerts will let our users know whether assets within their networks are making DNS requests against comprised domains - an indicator of potential compromise.

And from [@Cyber0verload](https://twitter.com/Cyber0verload) a kind tag with domain tips leading to SIDs 2044826, 2044772-2044780, as well as a hash that allowed us to model Gamaredon C2 recon callback activity in SIDs 2044827-2044829!

On that note, remember there are many ways to reach out to us with a tip-up on a hash, intel, or detection logic you’ve created. [Here](https://twitter.com/ET_Lab) on twitter, here on our Discourse on our mailing list via support[at]emergingthreats[dot]net, or on our Discord (his us up via DM for an invite!)

Here’s the origin of SID 2044768 from this tweet by [@suyog41](https://twitter.com/suyog41), giving us a URI pattern and PCRE match guidance to fire on this mugglestealer outbound activity:

SID 2044796 from this[@James\_inthe\_box](https://twitter.com/James_inthe_box) tweet - pswstealer exfil guidance from an [@anyrun\_app](https://twitter.com/anyrun_app). Thanks for sharing with the suricata IDS community!

Good friend of [@ET\_Labs](https://twitter.com/ET_Labs) @tgreen contributes SID 2044825 for CVE-2022-25237 SCADA Altenergy Power Control Software Command Injection Attempt modeled from the exploit here:

Thanks for the twitter tag[@Gi7w0rm](https://twitter.com/Gi7w0rm), which led to Hunting SID 2044835 - their analysis shows Raccoonv2 RecordBreaker loading a malicious binary which grabs google account details and exfils!

All week the infosec landscape has been working hard to cover the potentialities of the [#3CX](https://twitter.com/hashtag/3CX?src=hashtag_click) / [#3CXpocalypse](https://twitter.com/hashtag/3CXpocalypse?src=hashtag_click) - we’d particularly like to thank [@patrickwardle](https://twitter.com/patrickwardle), [@objective\_see](https://twitter.com/objective_see), and [@Volexity](https://twitter.com/Volexity)…

…for the work they’ve shared - this helped us not only release alerts for DNS queries for the observed domains (2044802-2044822) but today detection logic around the user agents and other related http header information! (SIDs 2044857, 2044848-2044849)

On the homefront,[@aRtAGGI](https://twitter.com/aRtAGGI) and his research on WinterVivern and CVE-2022027926 - wonderful insight on TA473, phishing, and the malicious actor standby of exploiting unpatched vulnerabilities. With [@ET\_Labs](https://twitter.com/ET_Labs) signatures for reference and visibility!
