Stealthy Network Access with Bluetooth PAN 📶💻

Our Tom shared insights from a malicious insider engagement in which they employed Bluetooth PAN to bridge connections between a client laptop and their own Linux VM. This method enabled them to establish a reverse SSH proxy into the client's internal network, circumventing traditional barriers like client isolation.

🔍 What is the significance?

Native Tools: This approach relies on built-in Windows tools, which help reduce the risk of detection by security teams.

Local Network advantage: Bluetooth PAN avoids using public internet resources like Command and Control (C2) infrastructure, reducing risk of detection via outbound network monitoring. However, the technique is dependent on having close proximity to the device for Bluetooth connectivity

Stealthy Operations: It allows for tunnelling Linux commands through the client's laptop, potentially bypassing Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems.

The full blog post provides detailed instructions on setting up a reverse SSH proxy and emphasizes the importance of disabling unused features like Bluetooth PAN and monitoring tools like native SSH.
