threat-actor-intelligence-server

A simple ReST server to lookup threat actors (by name, synonym or UUID) and returning the corresponding MISP galaxy information about the known threat actors.

Requirements

  • Python 3.6
  • Tornado

Installation

git clone https://github.com/MISP/threat-actor-intelligence-server
cd threat-actor-intelligence-server
git submodule init
git submodule update
pip install -r REQUIREMENTS

Starting the server

cd bin
python tai-server.py

By the default, the server is listening on TCP port 8889.

Alternative Installation

This method involves:

  • installing a few dependencies
  • creating a dedicated, unprivileged, user to run the TAI server(s)
  • creating a python virtual environment
  • installation of TAI
  • systemd configuraion of (arbitrarily) four instances
  • configuring nginx as a reverse proxy to four instances

Installing a few dependencies

sudo apt install virtualenv git python3-pip nginx

Create a dedicated, unprivileged, user to run the TAI server(s)

sudo adduser tai

Create and activate a python virtual environment called tai-env

sudo su tai 
virtualenv tai-env
source ./tai-env/bin/activate

Installation of TAI in the home directory of the user tai

cd
git clone https://github.com/MISP/threat-actor-intelligence-server
cd threat-actor-intelligence-server
git submodule init
git submodule update
pip install -r REQUIREMENTS
exit

systemd configuraion for a group of four instances of TAI

sudo cp /home/tai/threat-actor-intelligence-server/debian/tai@.service /lib/systemd/system/
sudo cp /home/tai/threat-actor-intelligence-server/debian/tai.target /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl daemon-reload

configuring nginx as a reverse proxy to four instances

sudo rm /etc/nginx/site-enabled/default
sudo cp /home/tai/threat-actor-intelligence-server/debian/nginx-tai.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/nginx-tai.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/

Lastly, configure systemd to start the TAI servers and nginx automatically

sudo systemctl enable tai.target
sudo systemctl enable nginx

API and public API

The API is simple and can be queried on the /query entry point by POSTing a simple query in JSON format. The query format is composed of an name as key or an uuid as key. The output format is a JSON in the MISP standard galaxy format.

Query such as {"name":"APT34"} or {"name":"Sofacy"} does the search on the name or potential synonyms.

There is also a simple GET entry point /get/<UUID> entry point followed by the UUID of the threat-actor.

A public API is available at the following url https://www.misp-project.org/tai/ and can be queried to gather the latest information about threat-actors.

Example using curl

curl --silent -d '{"name":"APT34"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST https://www.misp-project.org/tai/query | jq .

    "description": "Since at least 2014, an Iranian threat group tracked by FireEye as APT34 has conducted reconnaissance aligned with the strategic interests of Iran. The group conducts operations primarily in the Middle East, targeting financial, government, energy, chemical, telecommunications and other industries. Repeated targeting of Middle Eastern financial, energy and government organizations leads FireEye to assess that those sectors are a primary concern of APT34. The use of infrastructure tied to Iranian operations, timing and alignment with the national interests of Iran also lead FireEye to assess that APT34 acts on behalf of the Iranian government.",

Two of these zero-day vulnerabilities are associated with an advanced threat actor we call Animal Farm. Over the past few years, Animal Farm has targeted a wide range of global organizations. The group has been active since at least 2009 and there are signs that earlier malware versions  were developed as far back as 2007.",

  "description": "We have investigated their intrusions since 2013 and have been battling them nonstop over the last year at several large telecommunications and technology companies. The determination of this China-based adversary is truly impressive: they are like a dog with a bone.\nHURRICANE PANDAs preferred initial vector of compromise and persistence is a China Chopper webshell – a tiny and easily obfuscated 70 byte text file that consists of an eval() command, which is then used to provide full command execution and file upload/download capabilities to the attackers. This script is typically uploaded to a web server via a SQL injection or WebDAV vulnerability, which is often trivial to uncover in a company with a large external web presence.\nOnce inside, the adversary immediately moves on to execution of a credential theft tool such as Mimikatz (repacked to avoid AV detection). If they are lucky to have caught an administrator who might be logged into that web server at the time, they will have gained domain administrator credentials and can now roam your network at will via net use and wmic commands executed through the webshell terminal.",
