比特币攻击:使用比特币建立弹性僵尸网络军队
Attacking with bitcoin: Using Bitcoin to Build Resilient Botnet Armies
摘要:
我们专注于僵尸网络编排的问题,并讨论攻击者如何利用分散的技术来动态控制僵尸网络,目标是使僵尸网络能够抵御恶意收购。我们涵盖了比特币区块链的关键元素及其在“浮动命令和控制服务器”中的使用。我们将进一步讨论如何构建基于区块链的僵尸网络,并详细讨论我们的实现。我们还展示了如何使用特定的比特币API来将无关数据写入区块链。最后,虽然在本文中,我们使用比特币来构建我们的弹性僵尸网络概念证明,但威胁并不限于比特币区块链,并且可以推广。
英文摘要:
We focus on the problem of botnet orchestration and discuss how attackers can leverage decentralised technologies to dynamically control botnets with the goal of having botnets that are resilient against hostile takeovers. We cover critical elements of the Bitcoin blockchain and its usage for `floating command and control servers'. We further discuss how blockchain-based botnets can be built and include a detailed discussion of our implementation. We also showcase how specific Bitcoin APIs can be used in order to write extraneous data to the blockchain. Finally, while in this paper, we use Bitcoin to build our resilient botnet proof of concept, the threat is not limited to Bitcoin blockchain and can be generalized.
