AcidPour is a variant of AcidRain designed to impact a wider range of x86 architecture Linux devices. AcidPour is an x86 ELF binary that expands on the targeted devices and locations in AcidRain by including items such as Unsorted Block Image (UBI), Deice Mapper (DM), and various flash memory references. Based on this expanded targeting, AcidPour can impact a variety of device types including IoT, networking, and ICS embedded device types.[1] AcidPour is a wiping payload associated with the Sandworm Team threat actor, and potentially linked to attacks against Ukrainian internet service providers (ISPs) in 2023.[2]

MITRE reference S1167
AcidPour can identify various system locations and mapped devices on Linux systems as a precursor to wiping activity.4
AcidPour can identify specific files and directories within the Linux operating system corresponding with storage devices for follow-on wiping activity, similar to AcidRain.5
AcidPour includes functionality to identify MMC and SD cards connected to the victim device.6
AcidPour can perform an in-depth wipe of victim filesystems and attached storage devices through either data overwrite or calling various IOCTLS to erase them, similar to AcidRain.7
AcidPour includes functionality to reboot the victim system following wiping actions, similar to AcidRain.8
Standing S1167
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
Techniques733rd pct
33rd percentile · 67% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have more Enterprise techniques.
Tactics3Bottom 21%
21st percentile · 79% 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.
