PolyDrop - A BYOSI (Bring-Your-Own-Script-Interpreter) Rapid Payload Deployment Toolkit

BYOSI​

- Bring-Your-Own-Script-Interpreter​

- Leveraging the abuse of trusted applications, one is able to deliver a compatible script interpreter for a Windows, Mac, or Linux system as well as malicious source code in the form of the specific script interpreter of choice. Once both the malicious source code and the trusted script interpeter are safely written to the target system, one could simply execute said source code via the trusted script interpreter.​

PolyDrop​

- Leverages thirteen scripting languages to perform the above attack.​

The following langues are wholly ignored by AV vendors including MS-Defender: - tcl - php - crystal - julia - golang - dart - dlang - vlang - nodejs - bun - python - fsharp - deno
All of these languages were allowed to completely execute, and establish a reverse shell by MS-Defender. We assume the list is even longer, given that languages such as PHP are considered "dead" languages.

- Currently undetectable by most mainstream Endpoint-Detection & Response vendors.​

The total number of vendors that are unable to scan or process just PHP file types is 14, and they are listed below:

• Alibaba
• Avast-Mobile
• BitDefenderFalx
• Cylance
• DeepInstinct
• Elastic
• McAfee Scanner
• Palo Alto Networks
• SecureAge
• SentinelOne (Static ML)
• Symantec Mobile Insight
• Trapmine
• Trustlook
• Webroot

And the total number of vendors that are unable to accurately identify malicious PHP scripts is 54, and they are listed below:

• Acronis (Static ML)
• AhnLab-V3
• ALYac
• Antiy-AVL
• Arcabit
• Avira (no cloud)
• Baidu
• BitDefender
• BitDefenderTheta
• ClamAV
• CMC
• CrowdStrike Falcon
• Cybereason
• Cynet
• DrWeb

• Varist
• VBA32
• VIPRE
• VirIT
• ViRobot
• WithSecure
• Xcitium
• Yandex
• Zillya
• ZoneAlarm by Check Point
• Zoner

With this in mind, and the absolute shortcomings on identifying PHP based malware we came up with the theory that the 13 identified languages are also an oversight by these vendors, including CrowdStrike, Sentinel1, Palo Alto, Fortinet, etc. We have been able to identify that at the very least Defender considers these obviously malicious payloads as plaintext.
