More Asian countries are getting in on the trend

Quantum computing was already gathering pace in Japan and elsewhere in Asia when the University of Tokyo and IBM launched their new quantum computer last year.

The computer was the second such system built outside the United States by IBM — the latest in a string of key moves in quantum research.

The university and IBM have led the Quantum Innovation Initiative Consortium alongside heavyweights of Japanese industry like Toyota and Sony — all with a view to nailing the quantum question.

Quantum computing refers to the use of quantum mechanics to run calculations. Quantum computing can run multiple processes at once by using quantum bits, unlike binary bits which power traditional computing.

Challenging U.S. ‘hegemony’

The new technology will ultimately speed up the computational power that drives many industries and could affect everything from drug discovery to how data is secured. Several countries are racing to get quantum computers fully operational.

Christopher Savoie, CEO of quantum computing firm Zapata, who spent much of his career in Japan, said technological development has been very U.S.-centric. But now, Asian nations don’t want to be left behind on quantum computing, he added.

“Nation states like India, Japan and China are very much interested in not being the only folks without a capability there. They don’t want to see the kind of hegemony that’s arisen where the large cloud aggregators by and large are only US companies,” Savoie said, referring to the likes of Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure.

China, for example, has committed a great deal of brainpower to the quantum race. Researchers have touted breakthroughs and debates are simmering over whether China has surpassed the U.S. on some fronts.

India, for its part, announced plans earlier this year to invest $1 billion in a five-year plan to develop a quantum computer in the country.

Trend Micro fixes bug Chinese hackers exploited for espionage

Dragon

Trend Micro says it patched a DLL hijacking flaw in Trend Micro Security used by a Chinese threat group to side-load malicious DLLs and deploy malware.

As Sentinel Labs revealed in an early-May report, the attackers exploited the fact that security products run with high privileges on Windows to plant and load their own maliciously crafted DLL into memory, allowing them to elevate privileges and execute code.

“Trend Micro is aware of some research that was published on May 2, 2022, regarding a purported Central-Asian-based threat actor dubbed ‘Moshen Dragon’ that had deployed malware clusters that attempted to hijack various popular security products, including one from Trend Micro,” the cybersecurity company said.

After analyzing the report and its product line, the company discovered that only the Trend Micro Security consumer-focused product was affected, with no other commercial or business products impacted.

“For Trend Micro Security (Consumer), a fix was deployed via Trend Micro’s ActiveUpdate (AU) on May 19, 2022, and any user with an active internet connection should receive the update shortly if they have not yet already received it,” the antivirus vendor added.

DLL hijacking bugs in multiple security products

The Moshen Dragon group also reportedly abused similar bugs in security products from Bitdefender, McAfee, Symantec, and Kaspersky to install Impacket, a Python kit designed for lateral movement and remote code execution via Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).

Impacket also has credential-stealing capabilities powered by an open-source tool used to capture the details of password change events on a domain

According to Sentinel Labs, the final payloads dropped by the Moshen Dragon operators include variants of PlugX and ShadowPad, two backdoors used by multiple Chinese APTs in recent years.

The threat actors have used these tactics to target telecommunication service providers in Central Asia with the end goal of exfiltrating data from as many systems as possible.

While Trend Micro has published an advisory detailing the mitigation measures taken to stop Moshen Dragon from abusing its security products for…
