Description

Multi-feature fusion DNS hidden tunnel detection method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of information.
Background
With the continuous development of the internet, the DNS becomes an indispensable service, so that a general firewall cannot detect and filter DNS traffic. Therefore, lawless persons can take the opportunity to use the DNS as a hidden channel to realize remote control, file transmission and other operations, and great threat is brought to network security. Whether a DNS hidden tunnel exists or not is detected and identified, so that the user loss can be effectively reduced, and the health and the safety of a network environment are guaranteed.
At present, related patents detect DNS hidden tunnels, for example, patent [ CN111786993A ] designs manually to extract DNS request related features, such as request record type, length of a single label of a domain name, various character ratios, and then sets multiple thresholds to determine whether a DNS tunnel exists. The method designs abundant characteristics, but the judgment is carried out by completely depending on set rules, so that the manual interference is too much, and the misjudgment is easily caused. Patent [ CN110149418A ] uses a deep learning method for detection, a deep neural network can often learn hidden features which cannot be designed manually, and the detection effect is good, but the method does not use features such as request record types, and the features are also closely related to the detection result. Secondly, the problem of high computation complexity of a deep learning model is not considered, and finally, training data is not amplified by using data enhancement, so that the problem of cost consumption of manual labeling data can be solved by domain name data enhancement.
The method comprises the steps of extracting the domain name and the related request information of each request, using the fusion characteristics as input, and using a deep learning model as a detection model to judge whether the DNS flow has a hidden tunnel.
Using known techniques
N-Gram is an algorithm based on a statistical language model. The basic idea is to perform a sliding window operation with the size of N on the content in the text according to bytes, and form a byte fragment sequence with the length of N. Each byte segment is called as a gram, the occurrence frequency of all the grams is counted, and filtering is performed according to a preset threshold value to form a key gram list, namely a vector feature space of the text, wherein each gram in the list is a feature vector dimension. The model is based on the assumption that the nth word occurs only in relation to the first N-1 words, but not in relation to any other word, and that the probability of a complete sentence is the product of the probabilities of occurrence of the words. These probabilities can be obtained by counting the number of times that N words occur simultaneously directly from the corpus. Binary Bi-grams and ternary Tri-grams are commonly used.
The DNS tunnel, which is one of the covert channels, referred to herein as a DNS covert tunnel, establishes communication by encapsulating other protocols in a DNS protocol for transmission. Since DNS is an essential service in our network world, most firewalls and intrusion detection devices rarely filter DNS traffic, which provides the DNS as a covert channel that can be used to perform operations such as remote control, file transfer, etc., and increasing research has now demonstrated that DNS covert tunnels also often play an important role in botnet and APT attacks.
DNS hidden tunneling has been implemented by a plurality of tools from the proposal to the present, NSTX and Ozymandns are relatively early in history, iodine and dnscat2 are relatively active at present, and Denise, DNS2tcp and Heyoka are also available. The core principles of different tools are similar, but there is a certain difference in terms of coding, implementation details and target application scenarios. The implementation tool of the DNS hidden tunnel comprises: NSTX, Ozymandns, iododine, dnscat2, Denise, dns2tcp and Heyoka.
The PCAP is a data packet capture library, and a plurality of software uses the PCAP as a data packet capture tool. WireShark also uses the PCAP library to capture data packets. The data packets captured by the PCAP are not original network byte streams, but are newly assembled to form a new data format.
the tcpdump adopts a command line mode to screen and capture the data packet of the interface, and the rich characteristic of the tcpdump is expressed on a flexible expression. Tcpdump without any option will grab the first network interface by default and will stop grabbing the package only if the tcpdump process is terminated.
dropout refers to that in the deep learning training process, for a neural network training unit, the neural network training unit is removed from the network according to a certain probability, and it is noted that temporarily, for the descending of the random gradient, each mini-batch is training a different network due to random discarding.
