Daily Blog #614: Forensic Lunch Test Kitchen 1/31/19 Deep Freeze Windows 10

Hello Reader,
        Tonight we continued testing Deep Freeze on Windows 10 to find out what data was recoverable and how or if the data had been changed. Here is what we learned:

• The deleted data appears not just to be partially overwritten but moved physically on the disk
• When new data is written the older data from a prior reboot may be overwritten if the new data is larger
• If the subsequent reboots contain smaller amounts of new data, then older data from past reboots will survive

Daily Blog #613: Forensic Lunch Test Kitchen 1/30/19 Deep Freeze on Windows 10

Hello Reader,
         I've been asked quite a lot about recovering data from Windows 10 if deep freeze was installed. Now I've had theories and hypothesis regarding how Deepfreeze works and what should be possible but tonight I got an evaluation version of Deepfreeze and a new Windows 10 VM to find out for sure.

Here is what we learned:

• Deep freeze is reverting the system back to its prior state on reboot, as advertised
• When creating resident files if it is a reused mft entry it will be overwritten by the prior entry
• When creating non resident files any cluster previously in use will be overwritten
• Any part of the disk that was unallocated before freezing will contain any deleted data after reboot as deep freeze will have no data to overwrite it with

So, yes you can recover data even after rebooting with deep freeze, just not everything.

More testing to understand more about what is happening with deep freeze to come!

Hello Reader,
            Last week I may have asked a bit much, so I'm reeling myself back in. This week I've posted a lot of links to other peoples work as I've been teaching SANS FOR500 during the day at the CTI Summit and doing my case work at night. However thanks to great students sharing stories and asking great questions I'm walking away with even more insights and questions to answer. This week let's push our knowledge of shellbags forward.

Daily Blog #609: Solution Saturday 1/26/19

Hello Reader,
              Looks like my 2019 streak is now broken, this week we have no qualifying answers. When this happens I take it as a sign that the question was harder than I expected which means I really need to focus on finding a real answer myself. I'll be working on that and the other unanswered challenges in the year to come. Tomorrow come back for another challenge and I'll adjust my questions accordingly.

The winning answer: None this week

The Challenge:

On a Server 2008 R2 system make 4 copies of mimikatz (your choice of versions) 64 bit and 32 bit versions. Run them from 4 locations (of your choice) and determine what criteria determines when and if the executable gets logged in the Syscache hive and what dates are associated with the registry keys.

Daily Blog #606: Elcomsoft blog about Factory Access Mode

Hello Reader,
           I know this came out a week ago but I don't think I wrote about it. I found this article written by Elcomsoft employee Oleg Afonin to be fascinating! Oleg is writing all about how to get a SSD drive into factory access mode allowing an examiner to get access to all the data on a SSD without a chip off! This whole article was a fascinating read, if any of you out there has a PC3000 SSD let me know as I'd love to do some testing to find out what is actually recoverable from this method.

Daily Blog #605: CTI Summit 2019

Hello Reader,
             Between calls and work I got to watch some of the CTI Summit this week in DC prior to my class that starts tomorrow. I will admit that I look at CTI mainly from the outside trying to understand how it really works and what is real vs marketing. Prior to the CTI Summit I have read Scott Roberts and Rebekah Brown's book Intelligence Driven Incident Response:
 https://www.amazon.com/Intelligence-Driven-Incident-Response-Outwitting-Adversary/dp/1491934948 and I've talked to the CTI instructors about what they do in FOR578. ,

All of that though was just a foundation to understand the edges of the world of threat intelligence. Here where the words I heard repeated today:

• Bias 
• Cognitive Bias
• ATT&CK
• Pyramid of Pain
• Peer Review
• Threat actor

Each time I heard these major terms it came with a different perspective, one that would turn how the idea of 'product' for the 'consumer' was to be judged. 

As someone who focuses on the solid remnants of an incident the idea of this large grey area was outside of my comfort zone. I'm very comfortable when I can test and recreate an action to determine a prior action, but the idea of assembling possibilities and 'dossiers' based on events, actors and threats makes me very glad that there are other people who have found their passion in this.

So I salute you CTI professionals, I think we are both glad to be looking at each other over the fence between us in the widening world that is DFIR.

Daily Blog #604: New Amcache Resarch Paper you really should read

Hello Reader,
      If you've been following the blog and the test kitchens you would have seen that both myself and Maxim Suhanov have been testing and talking alot about the Amcache which lead to our findings about the Syscache hive. Well, it looks like we are not alone in our quest to truely understand this artifact since Blanche Lagny of the Agence Nationale de la Sécurité des Systèmes d'Information (ANSSI) aka the French National Cybersecurity Agency has released today atleast a years worth of research into not only the Amcache structure but also:

• What processes populate the Amcache
• What determines the format of the Amcache data (dll versions not windows versions)
• What determines the behavior of the Amcache storage (again its dll versions)
• and much more

If you are at all interested in the Amcache and want to understand it at a deeper level I would highly recommend you read this:
http://www.ssi.gouv.fr/uploads/2019/01/anssi-coriin_2019-analysis_amcache.pdf

Please note as with any other paper Lagny has both timing and scope limitations so this paper doesn't include every possible facet of the Amcache,  such as what it does not log or how the latest version of Windows 10 populates it. It's not that she is not aware of the other data points its that they are hopefully going to be covered by future papers.

Daily Blog #602: Solution Saturday 1/19/19

Hello Reader,
        This weeks' challenge has an interesting twist, I have two answers but neither was submitted before the deadline. So I thought I would post the two answers for everyone's benefit so it's not lost to the twitter timeline.

The Challenge:

In Windows 10 what behavior appears to determine if a program will show up in the UserAssist entries with 0 run count versus actually tracking a run count and last execution date

The Answers:

Matt Seyer: 

https://medium.com/@forensic_matt/no-run-counts-in-userassist-4f2a78cb9e2c

Matt worked up and tested three hypotheses for conditions where the UserAssist value did not get set or updated. Matt also released a really neat tool that will allow you to monitor UserAssist values in real time which will make testing much easier.

Maxim Suhanov:

https://twitter.com/errno_fail/status/1086715681968668674

Maxim tested a different method, he noticed that if GUI apps were executed from the command line (which should include exec scenarios within other programs) that the same behavior occurs. 

The common thread that I can find between all of these tests is that UserAssist is tracking executions outside of the direct user context now. This means ... you guessed it ... more testing! I think this helped leap forward quite a bit but I look forward to really pushing this out over the next week.

Daily Blog #601: Live registry triage and testing

Hello Reader,
          Well I attempted to do a test kitchen tonight but VMWare Workstation didn't want to cooperate. What I wanted to show is summarized in the below blog post from Eric Zimmerman:

https://binaryforay.blogspot.com/2019/01/locked-file-support-added-to.html

Eric has added the ability for his registry tools and the MFT explorer to be able to access the locked live files running on the live system. This means you can now access shellbag data with dates, view and search registries, parse amcache hives, run registry plugins and parse MFTs all without imaging or extracting files from the live system.

This is a pretty big step and it will require running the programs as the administrator in order to access the raw disk. I hope you take a moment to give them a spin as I will when I get a VM to boot!

Daily Blog #600: Windows 10 Search Artifacts are going to change again

Hello Reader,
            I saw this article over on the verge:
https://www.theverge.com/2019/1/16/18185490/microsoft-cortana-windows-10-search-changes

In this article they describe how Cortana is going to be separated from the search function. Currently we find the Windows 10 search artifacts in the NTUSER registry under the \software\microsoft\windows\current version\search. So keep an eye out for this change as we expect changes in how this data is stored and possibly new entries for cortana.

This is interesting since Cortana has been rapidly changing artifact wise and a return to more locally stored Cortana artifacts would be welcome.

Daily Blog #599: Forensic Lunch Test Kitchen 1/16/19 Syscache Server 2008 R2 Mimikatz

Hello Reader,
   Tonight we just had a short testing session (8 minutes of actual testing) were we checked in on last nights test. Here is what we learned:

• The time delay did not effect our results
• A shutdown/power on did not add a new entries
• The registry explorer and hasher entries still had no hash
• We still saw no entries for the other mimikatz executables

On the next broadcast we will be testing the same behavior in Windows 7 and parsing the whole MFT and Syscache rather than individual records to make sure we aren't missing anything.

Hello Reader,
       Tonight we returned to the test kitchen to try to solve the mystery of the Multiple mimikatz executables now showing up in the Syscache

Tonight we learned:

• Syscache does not appear to duplicate entries by hash
• We got some entries to appear without a hash
• We are giving the VM enough time to run its background processes to get the Syscache full written to with a new test tomorrow night
• The last write time does not appear to be updated when the program is executed again
• 64bit and 32bit executables are being recorded

Daily Blog #595: Solution Saturday 1/12/19

Hello Reader,
        I had two great submissions this week and one of them surprised me because it was from my own fellow g-c'er Matt Seyer. Matt won this weeks competition because he took one step farther in his testing to show not only what the new tables in the Server 2019 SRUM database meant, he also showed where to go in the registry to get the answer.

The Winning Answer:
Matt Seyer (@forensic_matt)

Sunday Funday Submission

The Challenge

Server 2019 got SRUM, what if any differences are there between SRUM on Windows 10 and SRUM on Server 2019?

Methodology

Compare the SRUM database schemas of a Windows 10 system and Server 2019. The most obvious differences should appear in the database schemas. Because the SRUM database uses the Extensible Storage Engine (ESE) format, we should work directly with the ESE database itself and not use tools that interpret its data into a different format (many tools will convert the ESE to SQLite). Because SRUM uses Extensions that are recorded in the SOFTWARE hive, the SOFTWARE hive should also be checked for differences.

Windows Versions Used

The following versions were used for generating the data in this research.

Server 2019 Version: Windows Server 2019 Standard (Desktop Experience)

Windows 10 Version: Windows 10 Enterprise

Table Differences

The following table schemas are resolved with a script (srum_schema.py) that uses pyesedb and yarp to resolve SRUM data. pyesedb allows us to work with the ESE format and yarp allows us to work with Registry and take transaction logs into account.

Base Tables

After reviewing SRUM’s base set of tables (tables not in the extensions), they appear to remain the same across Windows 10 and Server 2019.

Extended Tables

The differences between Windows 10 and Server 2019 start appearing when looking at the “Extension” tables. See the section Resolving Extended GUIDs for more information on registered Extensions and their enumeration. It would appear that DLLs register the Extension and thus it is expected to see differences of these tables between systems depending on services or application that exist. That being said, let’s look at some common tables.

Windows 10	Server 2019 Desktop Experience	Notes
--------------------------------------- Table: {973F5D5C-1D90-4944-BE8E-24B94231A174} [Windows Network Data Usage Monitor] -- Extension Key Values from SOFTWARE hive -- : Windows Network Data Usage Monitor DllName: %SystemRoot%\System32\nduprov.dll --------------------------------------- AutoIncId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED TimeStamp -> DATE_TIME AppId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED UserId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED InterfaceLuid -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED L2ProfileId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED L2ProfileFlags -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BytesSent -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED BytesRecvd -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED		This is where things get interesting. The “Windows Network Data Usage Monitor” table does not seem to exist on my Server 2019 Standard fresh install. This has been a very useful table and is used by SrumMonkey to generate meaning full network data reports. Upon examining the Server 2019’s Windows\System32 folder, no ‘nduprov.dll’ exists. Though Server 2019’s table “{EEE2F477-0659-5C47-EF03-6D6BEFD441B3}” (SDP Network Provider) appears to be some what of a replacement for network byte usage. [Further down in table]
--------------------------------------- Table: {D10CA2FE-6FCF-4F6D-848E-B2E99266FA89} [Application Resource Usage Provider] -- Extension Key Values from SOFTWARE hive -- : Application Resource Usage Provider DllName: %SystemRoot%\System32\appsruprov.dll --------------------------------------- AutoIncId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED TimeStamp -> DATE_TIME AppId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED UserId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED ForegroundCycleTime -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED BackgroundCycleTime -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED FaceTime -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED ForegroundContextSwitches -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BackgroundContextSwitches -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED ForegroundBytesRead -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED ForegroundBytesWritten -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED ForegroundNumReadOperations -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED ForegroundNumWriteOperations -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED ForegroundNumberOfFlushes -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BackgroundBytesRead -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED BackgroundBytesWritten -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED BackgroundNumReadOperations -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BackgroundNumWriteOperations -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BackgroundNumberOfFlushes -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED	--------------------------------------- Table: {D10CA2FE-6FCF-4F6D-848E-B2E99266FA89} [Application Resource Usage Provider] -- Extension Key Values from SOFTWARE hive -- : Application Resource Usage Provider DllName: %SystemRoot%\System32\appsruprov.dll --------------------------------------- AutoIncId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED TimeStamp -> DATE_TIME AppId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED UserId -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED ForegroundCycleTime -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED BackgroundCycleTime -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED FaceTime -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED ForegroundContextSwitches -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BackgroundContextSwitches -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED ForegroundBytesRead -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED ForegroundBytesWritten -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED ForegroundNumReadOperations -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED ForegroundNumWriteOperations -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED ForegroundNumberOfFlushes -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BackgroundBytesRead -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED BackgroundBytesWritten -> INTEGER_64BIT_SIGNED BackgroundNumReadOperations -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BackgroundNumWriteOperations -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED BackgroundNumberOfFlushes -> INTEGER_32BIT_SIGNED	This table is utilized by appsruprov.dll (Application Resource Usage Provider) and its schema remains unchanged on Server 2019 Standard. This is a common table to utilize for most tools including SrumMonkey.

Resolving Extended GUIDs

As with Windows 10, Server 2019 maintains the SRUM extended GUIDs and format under the SOFTWARE registry key `Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SRUM\Extensions`. This key has multiple sub-keys which are the GUIDs. For each GUID key, the default value is the descriptor of the GUID. See below for example:
