MITRE reference S0581
IronNetInjector has been disguised as a legitimate service using the name PythonUpdateSrvc.3
IronNetInjector has used a task XML file named mssch.xml to run an IronPython script when a user logs in or when specific system events are created.4
IronNetInjector can use an IronPython scripts to load a .NET injector to inject a payload into its own or a remote process.5
IronNetInjector has the ability to inject a DLL into running processes, including the IronNetInjector DLL into explorer.exe.6
IronNetInjector can identify processes via C# methods such as GetProcessesByName and running Tasklist with the Python os.popen function.7
Standing S0581
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
Techniques838th pct
38th percentile · 62% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have more Enterprise techniques.
Tactics541st pct
41st percentile · 59% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have more tactics spanned.
Threat group161% tie · 22 values
61% of the population shares a single value across only 22 distinct values, so a percentile here would rank the tie, not the entity.
Campaigns085% tie · 8 values
85% of the population shares a single value across only 8 distinct values, so a percentile here would rank the tie, not the entity.
