E-skimmers Were Used To Attack Over 500 Magento-Based E-Stores.

Sansec discovered a major hack affecting over 500 Magento 1 ecommerce companies last week. A payment skimmer loaded from the naturalfreshmall.com domain infected all of the stores. We requested users  to contact us so that we could discover a common entry point and safeguard other merchants against a potentially new attack.

The first investigation is now complete: attackers gained control of the Magento store using a smart combination of SQL injection (SQLi) and PHP Object Injection (POI) attacks.

Researchers reported that,” the attackers planted a total of 19 backdoors on the machine. To disinfect the system and avoid re-infection, each and every one of them must be removed.

The attack chain begins with the use of a known vulnerability in the Quickview plugin to inject rogue admin users into susceptible Magento stores. The attackers used the flaw to add a validation rule to the customer eav attribute table in the situations investigated by the experts.

A POI payload is included in the added validation rule, which is used to fool the host application into creating a malicious object. The attacker can trigger an unserialize and the execution of the backdoor by simply browsing the Magento sign up page, using the validation rules for new customers.

The attacker can then use the api 1.php backdoor to run any PHP code.

Finally the researchers concluded that,” Adobe has declared the Magento 1 platform End-Of-Life, although thousands of professional merchants continue to use it. Because Adobe no longer provides security fixes, we urge that you take extra precautions to keep your store secure. Malware detection is critical . Patches from the community are also available for Magento 1. Either open-source through OpenMage or commercially supported through Mage-One.
