ModPipe malware decrypts Oracle point-of-sale database passwords

Security researchers have discovered a new malware geared with modules that target Oracle Micros Hospitality RES 3700 point-of-sale systems. The malware is a modular backdoor that can steal the passwords for the PoS system databases by decrypting them from Windows registry values. Researchers at ESET found some basic ModPipe components at the end of 2019. In April 2020, they discovered in the wild three downloadable modules: GetMicInfo, ModScan, ProcList, and ModPipes. The researchers still don’t know how tha malware compromises the. PoS systems but they figured out its architecture.
