The Domino Backdoor is a type of malware that has been linked to multiple threat groups, highlighting the complexity of tracking these actors and their operations. This malicious software, designed to exploit and damage computers or devices, can steal personal information, disrupt operations, or hold data hostage for ransom. It has been observed in use since late February 2023, notably by former members of ITG23 who have used it in conjunction with Dave Loader during their campaigns. This suggests a level of collaboration between different threat groups. The Domino Backdoor also shares code overlap with the Lizar family of malware, developed by ITG14, adding another layer of complexity to its origins and operations. The Domino Backdoor uses the Microsoft WinCrypt library for AES encryption and decryption, a feature it shares with the Loader malware. In one particular instance, a payload was found to be a Loader with similarities to Domino Backdoor, subsequently referred to as Domino Loader. During an analysis, the payload received by the Domino backdoor from the C2 was identified as a 64-bit DLL, written in C++, with MD5 hash 2373BE26018075847AEA51636B739F66 and an internal filename of MultiRunDll64.dll. In addition to its shared characteristics with other malware, the Domino Backdoor has unique features. For example, Lizar's Jumper32/Jumper64.dll plugin resembles the code within Domino Backdoor, which is capable of loading a payload using several different methods. The required method can be specified using a command ID number. These findings highlight the sophisticated nature of this threat, indicating that it is part of a broader ecosystem of malicious tools used by cybercriminals to breach security systems and compromise sensitive data.
