malleable-redirector - a proxy2 plugin
Let's raise the bar in C2 redirectors IR resiliency, shall we?
Red Teaming business has seen several different great ideas on how to combat incident responders and misdirect them while offering resistant C2 redirectors network at the same time.
This piece of code tries to combine many of these great ideas into a one, lightweight utility, mimicking Apache2 in it's roots of being a simple HTTP(S) reverse-proxy. Combining Malleable C2 profiles understanding, knowledge of bad IP addresses pool and a flexibility of easily adding new inspection and misrouting logc - resulted in having a crafty repellent for IR evasion.
Abstract
This program acts as a HTTP/HTTPS reverse-proxy with several restrictions imposed upon which requests and from whom it should process, similarly to the .htaccess file in Apache2's mod_rewrite.
malleable_redirector was created to resolve the problem of effective IR/AV/EDRs/Sandboxes evasion on the C2 redirector's backyard. It comes in a form of a plugin for other project of mine called proxy2, that is a lightweight forward & reverse HTTP/HTTPS proxy.
The proxy2 in companion with this plugin can act as a CobaltStrike Teamserver C2 redirector, given Malleable C2 profile used during the campaign and teamserver's hostname:port. The plugin will parse supplied malleable profile in order to understand which inbound requests may possibly come from the compatible Beacon or are not compliant with the profile and therefore should be misdirected. Sections such as http-stager, http-get, http-post and their corresponding uris, headers, prepend/append patterns, User-Agent are all used to distinguish between legitimate beacon's request and some Internet noise or IR/AV/EDRs out of bound inquiries.
The plugin was also equipped with marvelous known bad IP ranges coming from: curi0usJack and the others: https://gist.github.com/curi0usJack/971385e8334e189d93a6cb4671238b10
Using an IP addresses blacklisting along with known bad keywords lookup through Reverse-IP DNS queries and HTTP headers, the reliability of this tool results considerably increased redirector's resiliency to the unauthorized peers wanting to examine protected infrastructure.
Use wisely, stay safe.

Plugin options
Following options are supported:
#
# ====================================================
# malleable_redirector plugin related settings
# ====================================================
#
#
# (Required) Path to the Malleable C2 profile file.
#
profile: cs.example.profile
#
# (Required) Address where to redirect legitimate inbound beacon requests.
# A.k.a. TeamServer's Listener bind address, in a form of:
# [inport:][http(s)://]host:port
#
# If proxy2 was configured to listen on more than one port, specifying "inport" will
# help the plugin decide to which teamserver's listener redirect inbound request.
#
# If 'inport' values are not specified in the below option (teamserver_url) the script
# will pick destination teamserver at random.
#
# Having proxy2 listening on only one port does not mandate to include the "inport" part.
# This field can be either string or list of strings.
#
teamserver_url:
- 1.2.3.4:5555
#
# What to do with the request originating from anyone else than the beacon:
# - redirect (HTTP 301),
# - reset TCP connection
# - proxy to act as a reverse-proxy (dangerous!)
# Valid values: 'reset', 'redirect', 'proxy'.
#
# Defaults to: redirect
#
drop_action: redirect
#
# If someone who is not a beacon hits the proxy, or the inbound proxy does not meet
# malleable profile's requirements - where we should proxy/redirect his requests.
#
# Default: https://google.com
#
action_url: https://google.com
#
# Log full bodies of dropped requests.
#
# Default: False
#
log_dropped: False
#
# Ban peers based on their IPv4 address. The blacklist with IP address to check against is specified
# in 'ip_addresses_blacklist_file' option.
#
# Default: True
#
ban_blacklisted_ip_addresses: True
#
# Specifies external list of CIDRs with IPv4 addresses to ban. Each entry in that file
# can contain a single IPv4, a CIDR or a line with commentary in following format:
# 1.2.3.4/24 # Super Security System
#
# Default: plugins/malleable_banned_ips.txt
#
ip_addresses_blacklist_file: plugins/malleable_banned_ips.txt
#
# Ban peers based on their IPv4 address' resolved ISP/Organization value or other details.
# Whenever a peer connects to our proxy, we'll take its IPv4 address and use one of the specified
# APIs to collect all the available details about the address. Whenever a banned word
# (of a security product) is found in those details - peer will be banned.
# List of API keys for supported platforms are specified in ''. If there are no keys specified,
# only providers that don't require API keys will be used (e.g. ip-api.com, ipapi.co)
#
# Default: True
#
verify_peer_ip_details: True
#
# Specifies a list of API keys for supported API details collection platforms.
# If 'verify_peer_ip_details' is set to True and there is at least one API key given in this option, the
# proxy will collect details of inbound peer's IPv4 address and verify them for occurences of banned words
# known from various security vendors. Do take a note that various API details platforms have their own
# thresholds for amount of lookups per month. By giving more than one API keys, the script will
# utilize them in a random order.
#
# To minimize number of IP lookups against each platform, the script will cache performed lookups in an
# external file named 'ip-lookups-cache.json'
#
# Supported IP Lookup providers:
# - ip-api.com: No API key needed, free plan: 45 requests / minute
# - ipapi.co: No API key needed, free plan: up to 30000 IP lookups/month and up to 1000/day.
# - ipgeolocation.io: requires an API key, up to 30000 IP lookups/month and up to 1000/day.
#
# Default: empty dictionary
#
ip_details_api_keys:
ipgeolocation_io:
#
# Restrict incoming peers based on their IP Geolocation information.
# Available only if 'verify_peer_ip_details' was set to True.
# IP Geolocation determination may happen based on the following supported characteristics:
# - organization,
# - continent,
# - continent_code,
# - country,
# - country_code,
# - city,
# - timezone
#
# The Peer will be served if at least one geolocation condition holds true for him
# (inclusive/alternative arithmetics).
#
# If no determinants are specified, IP Geolocation will not be taken into consideration while accepting peers.
# If determinants are specified, only those peers whose IP address matched geolocation determinants will be accepted.
#
# Each of the requirement values may be regular expression. Matching is case-insensitive.
#
# Following (continents_code, continent) pairs are supported:
# ('AF', 'Africa'),
# ('AN', 'Antarctica'),
# ('AS', 'Asia'),
# ('EU', 'Europe'),
# ('NA', 'North america'),
# ('OC', 'Oceania'),
# ('SA', 'South america)'
#
# Proper IP Lookup details values can be established by issuing one of the following API calls:
# $ curl -s 'https://ipapi.co/TARGET-IP-ADDRESS/json/'
# $ curl -s 'http://ip-api.com/json/TARGET-IP-ADDRESS'
#
# The organization/isp/as/asn/org fields will be merged into a common organization list of values.

TODO:
- Add some unique beacons tracking logic to offer flexilibity of refusing staging and communication processes at the proxy's own discretion
- Introduce day of time constraint when offering redirection capabilities
- Keep track of metadata/ID payloads to better distinguish connecting peers and avoid replay attack consequences
- Test it thoroughly with several enterprise-grade EDRs, Sandboxes and others
- Add Proxy authentication and authorization logic on CONNECT/relay.
- Add Mobile users targeted redirection
