T9000 is a backdoor that is a newer variant of the T5000 malware family, also known as Plat1. Its primary function is to gather information about the victim. It has been used in multiple targeted attacks against U.S.-based organizations. [1] [2]
Enterprise ATT&CK only. Any Mobile or ICS rows on the same ATT&CK page are not carried.
MITRE reference S0098
T9000 gathers and beacons the username of the logged in account during installation. It will also gather the username of running processes to determine if it is running as SYSTEM.4
T9000 gathers and beacons the operating system build number and CPU Architecture (32-bit/64-bit) during installation.5
T9000 can take screenshots of the desktop and target application windows, saving them to user directories as one byte XOR encrypted .dat files.6
T9000 searches removable storage devices for files with a pre-defined list of file extensions (e.g. * .doc, *.ppt, *.xls, *.docx, *.pptx, *.xlsx). Any matching files are encrypted and written to a local user directory.7
T9000 searches through connected drives for removable storage devices.8
Standing S0098
Reach is how much of ATT&CK this tool touches. Coverage is how well defended each thing it does is, as a median per technique rather than a total — a total would just restate the reach. Each figure is ranked against all 825 ATT&CK software entries only where that population actually spreads. Where most of the population shares one value, a percentile would rank the tie instead of the entity, so the raw value is shown and no rank is claimed.
Reach
57th percentile · 57% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have this many Enterprise techniques or fewer.
53rd percentile · 53% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have this many tactics spanned or fewer.
61% of the population shares a single value across only 22 distinct values, so a percentile here would rank the tie, not the entity.
85% of the population shares a single value across only 8 distinct values, so a percentile here would rank the tie, not the entity.
Coverage
13th percentile · 87% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have more detection rules per technique.
Detection coverage S0098
277 distinct rules cover the 13 techniques recorded for this tool. The 290 technique-to-rule mappings resolve to 277 distinct rules, because one rule can cover several techniques. 204 Sigma · 73 Splunk.
