## Code Signing Certificate Cloning Attack
|
|
|
|
A Powershell script that signs input Executable file with fake Microsoft code-signing certificate to demonstrate risks of cloned-certificate sign attacks.
|
|
|
|
Script was shamelessly borrowed from [Matt Graeber, @mattifestation](https://twitter.com/mattifestation) and his research titled:
|
|
- [_Code Signing Certificate Cloning Attacks and Defenses_](https://posts.specterops.io/code-signing-certificate-cloning-attacks-and-defenses-6f98657fc6ec)
|
|
|
|
**All credits go to Matt** - I merely copied his code & work for preserverance purposes.

### Effectiveness
|
|
|
|
As of [13/07/2022](https://twitter.com/mariuszbit/status/1547320418821980160) this **dumb trick** still gets off the shelf malware evade detection of at least 8 modern security scanners.
