Hack U3 USB Smart Drive to Become Ultimate Hack Tool

Posted By Raymond In Category: Computer

Nov

2007

Once I mentioned in an article that there is a way to hack USB flash drive to autorun programs once it is plugged in to a computer and immediately someone posted a comment asking me how to do that. We all know that Windows doesn’t autoplay autorun.inf for normal USB flash drives but then there is a type of USB flash drive called U3 smart drive which will automatically launch “U3 Launchpad” when plugged into a computer. What hackers do is the remove the U3 Launchpad and replace it with malicious programs.

This is very dangerous because the hacker can program a script to extract and steal sensitive information such as visited sites, saved email and instant messenger passwords, wi-fi password, auto complete entries and etc… Other than stealing information, it can also be used to delete everything on a hard drive. Just wanted to clarify that it is not possible to do that on normal traditional USB flash drives. You will need a U3 smart drive such as SanDisk Cruzer Micro, SanDisk Cruzer Titanium and Memorex Mini TravelDrive.
Hack USB to AutoRun
U3 smart drive are slightly more expensive than traditional USB flash drives. I purposely went and bought a SanDisk Cruzer Titanium 4GB at the price of USD45 to test it out and then write an article for you to read… How nice of me! Here’s how I hacked my U3 smart drive to autorun malicious programs.


The concept of how can U3 smart drive autorun program is quite simple. Normal USB flash drives only has 1 drive letter but for U3 smart drive, it has 2 drives. One is the normal storage drive and the other one is an emulated CD drive.
Difference between U3 Smart Drive and USB flash drive
It’s the emulated CD drive that autorun malicious scripts or programs to collect information and then copies the stolen information to the storage drive.

There are 3 main ready made payload called USB Switchblade, USB Hacksaw and USB Chainsaw(still in early development).

USB Switchblade goal is to silently recover information from computers running Windows 2000 or higher. It is able to get password hashes, LSA secrets, IP information, etc… USB Switchblade also requires administrative privileges in order to run the payload. I will demonstrate on how to hack U3 smart drive with -=GonZor=- SwitchBlade technique.

1. Download -=GonZor=- Payload V2.0

2. Download Universal Customizer

3. Unzip the Universal Customizer to “C:\Universal_Customizer

4. Unzip the -=GonZor=- Payload V2.0 to “C:\Payload

5. Copy the file U3CUSTOM.ISO from C:\Payload to C:\Universal_Customizer\BIN replacing the old one.

6. Run C:\Universal_Customizer\Universal_Customizer.exe and plug in U3 smart drive.
- Select Accept and click Next.
- Close all U3 applications and any applications that access your U3 drive and click Next.
- Set a password for the backup zip file (Empty password not allowed)
- Click Next and it will start backing up data. Wait for the Universal Customizer to modify your CD partition and replace your files to the flash drive.
- The modification should now be complete, Unplug your U3 Drive and plug it back in
How to hack USB flash drive

7. Copy “C:\Payload\SBConfig.exe” to the mass storage of the flash drive

8. Run SBConfig.exe from flash drive
How to configure Gonzor Payload Config
- Select the check boxes of the Payload options you would like to use
- Enter your email address and password for the HackSaw if you wish to use it.
- Click “Update Config” button, a message box should appear to confirm this is completed
- Toggle between using the payload or not by clicking the “Turn PL On”/”Turn PL Off” button
- Toggle between using the U3 Launcher or not by clicking the “Turn U3 Launchpad On”/”Turn U3 Launchpad Off” button

9. You now have -=GonZor=- Payload V2.0 in your U3 smart drive which can automatically steal password once it is plugged in to a computer with administrative privileges.

I’ve tested it and it’s very scary because when I plugged in the hacked U3 smart drive with USB Switchblade payload, the payload ran silently and invisibly! It did not modify any system settings nor sent any network traffic. There is a log file created at F:\System\Logs\COMPUTERNAME (F: drive is the storage drive) by the payload and I am shocked to see that my network configurations, router password, Windows Live Messenger password, Google Talk password, Gmail password, all Firefox passwords, Internet Explorer passwords, ICQ password, Windows Product Keys and etc being recorded in that log file!
USB Switchblade Payload log file

There are other techniques available for USB Switchblade payload that you might want to check it out.

As for the USB Hacksaw, it is an evolution of the popular USB Switchblade that uses a modified version of USBDumper, Blat, Stunnel, and Gmail to automatically infect Windows PCs with a payload that will retrieve documents from USB drives plugged into the target machine and securely transmit them to an email account. You can get more information about USB Hacksaw here.

As you can see, it wasn’t really hard to hack my U3 USB smart drive to become the ultimate hack tool. So be very careful when someone wants to plug in their USB flash drive, ESPECIALLY U3 smart drive into your computer.

If you accidentally used the payload on yourself or someone that you didn’t want to, I found two antidotes to remove it. The first antidote is by Spektormax. In Spektormax’s antidote, there are 2 antidotes, antidote(HOME).cmd and antidote(PRO).cmd. This is because Windows XP Pro has the tool taskill while HOME only has tskill. The PRO one can force stop a process even while it doesn’t want to be, the home cannot. Use the PRO if you can, use HOME if you only have XP home.

[ Download Antidote by Spektormax ]

The second antidote is called USB Antidote which is still in early planning stages with the goal of becoming a tool for systems administrators to defend against other USB based attacks, including autorun workarounds, anti-virus updating, operating system patching, and automatic configuration of other USB attack mitigation techniques. This is not just an antidote for the Switchblade, but it is a complete toolkit for quickly securing a pc, with registry tweaks, virus, spyware, and rootkit scanning, and an overall cleanup.

      Hey Raymond, You rock man!!!… i had a u3 device from long time but didnt knew that it can be used for such purposes also… this is better then a keylogger which is detected somehow.. but no chance for this tool get caught.

      Thanks a lot….

      I’m gonna test it tonight ;) .

    • http://www.raymond.cc/ Raymond

      It is a proof of concept. You can actually customize your own application to autorun. Just need to edit the ISO file.

      I got some problem here. How can I uninstall U3 Customizer? My U3 drive is “Toshiba” and now it changed to “San Disk”. How can I restored back to Toshiba. I’ve tried toshiba updater but it says I’ve already updated to latest and update was aborted.
      oh,btw, Process are detected as virus on Bit Defender 2008.

      Update! heh.. I’ve successfully restored back to “toshiba” using my own method :P.

      Attention everyone the Antidote by Spektorma is mixed with a trojan called “TROJAN.WIN32.KILLAV.JE ”

      Another trojan called “TYPE_WIN32″ was found mixed with the file http://www.muvextoe.com/release/muvextoe-openlastclosedtab.exe

      Hey Raymond try to get clean links next time man!

    • Baron

      Couldnt you do this just by setting a autorun on the flash drive? Or does the emulation of a cd drive do something different?

    • http://www.raymond.cc/ Raymond

      Rapster88: Can you share with us how you restore toshiba launchpad?

      Sam Ahmed: I just realized that csrss.exe is labeled as “TROJAN.WIN32.KILLAV.JE” by antivirus and I thank you for bringing this to my attention. I ran csrss.exe in Sandboxie but it didn’t do anything. I will do a more thorough check and see what it does. As for TYPE_WIN32, does it have anything to do with the antidote? The links are hosted at Hak5 and they have good reputation. If they tried to plant a virus in their files, TRUST ME, people would have long known about it as they have thousands of members. If you don’t believe me, run it in Sandboxie and check the contents.

      Baron: You can ONLY autoplay flash drive but not AUTORUN.

    • polsen

      Two questions raymond:
      antivirus don’t reveal the existance of this programs?
      and
      if i want to disintall it after use? there’s a method? thx

    • http://blog.atomicdevelopment.net Rapster88
    • http://NoticetheKILLAV Sam Ahmed

      of course you will not be able to detect it because if you notice the name of the trojan ends with “KILLAV.JE ” which means “KILL ( A)NTI (V)IRUS”

      you better scan your hard disk with a good antivirus and trust me this is the real test for your antivirus ,so go ahead install a new one if you can’t see this trojan and keep trying different AVS.

      HI5 suck if they have a link like this on their server!

    • Andrew

      so once you’ve run the payload on someones computer how do you view the contents without infecting yourself in the process????

    • http://www.raymond.cc/ Raymond

      polsen: antivirus might pick up the payload.

      Andrew: You can disable autoplay on your computer or press the SHIFT key when inserting the U3 smart drive. It will bypass autoplay.

    • http://www.raymond.cc/ Raymond

      Ah… I think the author of antidote purposely used this antivirus killer because the antidote batch command runs a few command that AV might block.

      The commands are:
      services.exe -uninstall
      taskkill
      regedit /s vnc-uninstall.reg
      rmdir
      reg delete

      The antidote IS hosted in Hak5. I think it’s a bad move to include the AV killer. Why don’t the author of antidote include a readme or info message on the batch file informing to turn off antivirus first? There is a reason for the AV killer to be there and not to prank users.

      This AV killer might turn off antivirus but after a reboot, it should be back to normal. No big deal.

      Hi,
      I bought an InnoDisk USB pendrive which doesn’t has U3 support, but it comes with a autorun file which will create a CDROM when you plug in the USB pendrive. I manage to hack it and install my own software(even trojan!!!). So, i get an U3 features pendrive with a normal price!! Hahaha!

    • http://gerpg.com Aatch

      Lol, I must admit that this is a good hack. Though the people asking for software are annoying. You shouldn’t be allowed to use this method if you can’t write your own payload software. BTW, half the the things that the payload does are blocked by a decent firewall. Like Comodo. It warns of things like silent processes and that.

    • Hak3r

      Has anyone used this on a vista machine? It doesn’t seem to do anything automatically. Looks like Vista blocks the app from running. If you manually run LAUNCHU3.EXE it does run but does not perform all of the Gonzor payload options and the launchpad is loaded at that point (obviously).

      neil – if you don’t have admin rights on your domain PC it won’t run. And the admin has to be logged in.

      FYI – AVG Anti-Malware catches all the Gonzor utils.

    • Grinchy

      This is something that shouldn’t be used by novices. If you screw up your drives, maybe there’s a lesson there that you need take notice of. Leave the computer hacking to the experienced.

    • Hak3r

      Also, using this on your works’ domain is more than likely a violation of policy wether you are an administrator or not, and could easily result in termination. The first thing you need to do is understand exactly what these apps do before arbitrarily running them.

      Miko, one of the things antidote does is disable CDrom autorun. (For better computer security against USB drive exploits like this one.)

      JUST TO SHARE WITH EVERYONE HERE

      Well….i thought this\’s been out since few years back n still acquires a lot of \”attention\”…. (Obviously…i guess most of the users here are the fans of Hak.5 videocast)

      - This is where \’End-Point\’ Physical Security issue arise….
      For general reading, can refer to USBHacks

      - It\’s always a good practice in conducting a \’security breach\’ demo/test in-house on your own network/system or others with permission before the \’bad guys\’ do…(Afterall, tht\’s the way of white hat)

      - I m gonna write out a few topic-related points in brief as a reference for others.

      A) Update of GonZor
      - 2.1BETA Payload Download Link Link
      - SBConfig 2.1.5
      Link
      - I strongly recommend every1 to join the forum & b a \”Beta Tester\”
      - You can refer to the forum for the changes log, anyway, you can always modify the batch & \”DIY\” accordingly….not big deal ^^
      - Afterall, the primary goal of the GonZor project was to test out the the protection level of \’End-Point Physical Security\’, it\’s strictly prohibited for misuse.

      B) Bypassing AV Detection
      - Strong knowledge in debugging is required with Olly, IDA & SoftICE for changing binary structure of signature > hijack bin exe flow & inject \’stub\’ > XOR encode/decode in memory.
      - 100% works on low-level signature-based AV avoidance even in Vista.
      - I have tested the avkiller (csrss.exe) in old version of AVG, it works but not the latest one.
      - Last, if anyone could get rootkit methods employed with the GonZor, do let me know…i\’ve been cracking my head on it & my programming skills is sucks to max….~_~

      Anyway, please correct me if i make any mistake. Thanks every1 & Raymond ^^

I tried to go in and delete the files in drive “F:” but they’re read only. McAfee couldn’t even get them off. I’d like to completely wipe my u3 so that I can start over with the hack with McAfee turned off, but I just can’t seem to do it. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thx

    • usb

      this look good but i’m dissapointed because when i select “dump SAM (PWDUMP)” its shows me the users but dont display the password…now if we are talking of an ultimate HACK!!!! tool it must display the PASSWORD, i know better methods to get passwords, so tell me somthing about this or forget about calling it the “Ultimate” hanking tool

      I managed to combine the Amish Payload, ipod switchblade, and Silvernions Technique. It ROCKS, buts it takes about 45-50 seconds for it finish….. (hey there are downsides to all acts of brilliant hacking)

    • me

      I took U3 off my sandisk drive and I wonder if anyone has a clue of how to put it on. Shouldn\\\’t ther be some tool to reformat it with the special CD partition?

    • http://Doesntworkonbiggerdevices Øystein

      I just bought i 16GB USB Sandisk cruzer micro… Same as you use, just bigger. But when i use Universal_Customizer.exe, it makes my 16GB USB become 3GB!!! :( And no matter what i try, i cant make it back to 16 unless i install the old u3 application from sandisk’s homepage, but then it changes the content of the cd-rom as well :(
      Any ide to what i can do?

    • kawi625

      this program cannot be tracked in any way on a normal computer even if you are not an administrator correct?
      and there is no virus in it that will harm a computer?

      SOLUTION IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH

      THOSE WHO HAVE NOT INSTALLED, PLEASE DO NOT INSTALL.

      FOR ALL THAT YOU INSTALL “U3 CUSTOMIZER”

      I have read many commentaries from people who think it was a very errors which their USB is reduced to 3G.

      THIS IS NOT AN ERROR.

      “U3 CUSTOMIZER” DESTROY YOUR DATA WHILE TELLING LIES THAT YOU KEEP … TRUE.

      ALSO AVAILABLE TO REDUCE THE AREA ABOUT 3GB (I WAS ONE OF 8GB)

      WHERE TO INSTALL AND FINALLY WAS BEFORE THE VIRTUAL CD U3 (FORMAT CDFS) A FILE OF AN IMAGE THAT BRINGS. VBS, possibly a virus (I did not did anything that had a AUTORUN BLOCKER)

      THE SOLUTION is to reinstall the U3 ORIGINAL OF THIS SOFTWARE LOCATION: http://drivers1.sandisk.com/DriverDownload/assets/USB% 20Flash% 20Drives/LPInstaller.zip

      ALL duties as before.

    • JUAN

      SOLUCION EN INGLES Y EN ESPAÑOL

      LOS QUE NO LO HAN INSTALADO, NO LO INSTALEN POR FAVOR.

      PARA TODOS LOS QUE INSTALARON “U3 CUSTOMIZER”

      HE LEIDO MUCHOS COMENTARIO DE PERSONAS QUE PIENSAN QUE FUE UN ERROR PROPIO QUE SUS MEMORIAS USB SE REDUJERAN A 3G.

      ESTO NO ES UN ERROR.

      “U3 CUSTOMIZER” DESTRUYE TUS DATOS MIENTRAS TE MIENTE DICIENDO QUE LOS GUARDARA… ES CIERTO.

      ADEMAS REDUCE EL ESPACIO DISPONIBLE A 3GB APROXIMADAMENTE (YO TENIA UNA DE 8GB)

      Y POR ULTIMO INSTALA DONDE ANTES ESTABA EL CD VIRTUAL DE U3 (FORMATO CDFS) UN ARCHIVO DE IMAGEN QUE TRAE UN .VBS, POSIBLEMENTE UN VIRUS, (A MI NO ME HIZO NADA POR QUE TENIA UN AUTORUN BLOCKER)

      LA SOLUCION ES REINSTALAR EL SOFTWARE U3 ORIGINAL DE ESTA UBICACION: http://drivers1.sandisk.com/DriverDownload/assets/USB%20Flash%20Drives/LPInstaller.zip

      TODO FUNCIONARA COMO ANTES.

      I’ve been playing with autoruns and flash drives since before U3 drives were even available. I still have some of the original UD-RW drives from Hagiwara lying around. (Test models, 1GB each with a resizable U3-like partition.) I’ve used them for years to show why physical security is just as important as network security.

      You can read more about my findings and creations here: http://www.GuidoZ.com/U3/

      Great links/info here – will be fun stuff to add to my toolset. ;-)


      Peace. ~G

    • Raymond

      I created a program using batch files that autoruns on a Windows PC, silently copies Internet Explorer, Firefox, Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird and lots of IM clients’ passwords to the flash drive, then copies the PC’s info including hardware specs and software serial numbers to the drive, and then launches LiberKey. To avoid always copying my own info to the drive, I used the simple if exist command to check if there is a file named “skipthispc” on the target hard drive. It is pretty easy to do this actually.

    • Raymond

      I just want to add, my name really is Raymond.

    • Raymond

      Sorry for three posts, but I wanted to add that I used an autorun.inf trick to automatically run my batch files, not a U3 flash drive.

    • Callofoti

      Hello
