Alert: New SSHD Rootkit/exploit rolling around

Alert: New SSHD Rootkit Rolling Around

There is a new SSHD rookit rolling around since few days ago, it looks it's affecting mostly RHEL/CentOS servers.

Servers with cPanel, Plesk, VirtualMin and DirectAdmin are affected well.
 
According to a Security Audition in one of the hacked servers we found the Rootkit deposits files in /lib64 and /lib, main file name is libkeyutils.so.1.9.
 
It changes symlinks of /lib64/libkeyutils.so.1 to point to the mentioned lib.
 
We believe this lib is capable of stealing passwords, SSH keys and /etc/shadow files from the server. It's also used as a backdoor to
gain access to the server through a different port, the rootkit will also modify all the authentication mechanisms of the server preventing any login or command history to be logged through this backdoor.

The intruder has full root access which means there is a exploit among with this rootkit capable of root privilege escalation.

You can see if your server is infected by running the following script:

# wget -qq -O - http://www.serverbuddies.com/files/libkeyutilscheck.sh | sh

We highly encourage to submit a 1x Hour of Support if you see the script is showing your server as compromised.

Don't hesitate to contact our Suppor Team for any inquiry you may have!

Remember, we listen to you! Any comments/suggestions should be sent to info@serverbuddies.com.
