事件经过
Palo Alto Networks 安全 AI 研究团队对 HTTP 流量中的恶意软件命令与控制(C&C)检测深度学习模型进行了红队测试。基于公开可得的训练数据,团队构建了替代模型,据此构造出规避样本——证明攻击者无需接触原模型即可实现检测规避。
运用的 ATLAS 技术
以下攻击链映射来自 MITRE ATLAS 官方数据(AML.CS0000 的
employs关系),按官方步骤编号排序;技术名称链接至本库对应技术文档,引用文字为官方对本次运用的描述。
S00
- 预印本仓库 (AML.T0000.001)
We identified a machine learning based approach to malicious URL detection as a representative approach and potential target from the paper URLNet: Learning a URL representation with deep learning for malicious URL detection, which was found on arXiv (a pre-print repository).
S01
- 数据集 (AML.T0002.000)
We acquired a command and control HTTP traffic dataset consisting of approximately 33 million benign and 27 million malicious HTTP packet headers.
S02
- 创建代理 AI 模型 (AML.T0005)
We trained a model on the HTTP traffic dataset to use as a proxy for the target model. Evaluation showed a true positive rate of ~ 99% and false positive rate of ~ 0.01%, on average. Testing the model with a HTTP packet header from known malware command and control traffic samples was detected as malicious with high confidence (> 99%).
S03
- 人工修改 (AML.T0043.003)
We crafted evasion samples by removing fields from packet header which are typically not used for C&C communication (e.g. cache-control, connection, etc.).
S04
- 验证攻击 (AML.T0042)
We queried the model with our adversarial examples and adjusted them until the model was evaded.
S05
- 规避 AI 模型 (AML.T0015)
With the crafted samples, we performed online evasion of the ML-based spyware detection model. The crafted packets were identified as benign with > 80% confidence. This evaluation demonstrates that adversaries are able to bypass advanced ML detection techniques, by crafting samples that are misclassified by an ML model.
