Quote:On Wednesday, the Department of Energy, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the NSA, and the FBI jointly released an advisory about a new hacker toolset potentially capable of meddling with a wide range of industrial control system equipment.
More recently, the Russian hackers known as Sandworm, part of the Kremlin's GRU military intelligence agency, deployed a tool called Industroyer or Crash Override to trigger a blackout in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv in late 2016.
The next year, Kremlin-linked hackers infected systems at the Saudi Arabian oil refinery Petro Rabigh with a piece of malware known as Triton or Trisis, which was designed to target its safety systems—with potentially catastrophic physical consequences—but instead triggered two shutdowns of the plant's operations.
PIPEDREAM (WIRED article)
Stuxnet 2.0?
Quote:CHERNOVITE’s PIPEDREAM Malware Targeting Industrial Control Systems (ICS)
PIPEDREAM is the seventh known industrial control system (ICS)-specific malware. The CHERNOVITE Activity Group (AG) developed PIPEDREAM. PIPEDREAM is a modular ICS attack framework that an adversary could leverage to cause disruption, degradation, and possibly even destruction depending on targets and the environment.
Dragos identified and analyzed PIPEDREAM’s capabilities through our normal business, independent research, and collaboration with various partners in early 2022. Dragos assesses with high confidence that PIPEDREAM has not yet been employed in the wild for destructive effects.
CHERNOVITE’s PIPEDREAM can execute 38 percent of known ICS attack techniques and 83 percent of known ICS attack tactics.1
PIPEDREAM accomplishes this far-reaching impact through a series of five components that Dragos labels:
✅ EVILSCHOLAR
✅ BADOMEN
✅ DUSTTUNNEL
✅ MOUSEHOLE
✅ LAZYCARGO
