    The reason MalwareBytes on your host machine is able to pick up these network requests is because VirtualBox just re-routes the internet connections from guest to host via NAT bridge. To MalwareBytes on host, it would appear as if VirtualBox is requesting these network connections. However you're still screwed if you have any shared folders that are active while these malware are infecting your computer.

    • @KeinNiemand
      @KeinNiemand ปีที่แล้ว +14

      but would the maleware even be able to do anything on the host with those shared folders (other then copying itself into it/infecting files/delting/encrypting files in it?) Without some sort of serious security exploint in windows just having a malious file shouldn't do anything even if it's on a shared folder on the host. Actually infecting the host requires you to go to the shared folter on the host and start in yourself. Of course if windows or virtualbox has some kind of exploit that let's it run automatically your really screwed, but having a shared folder alone shoudn't be enough on it's own either, it needs some kind of exploit.

    • @policiacivil3867
      @policiacivil3867 ปีที่แล้ว +33

      actually in a technical point of view, you are not, because access to shared folders doesnt mean the host will run these files at all.
      It would be dangerous only if you had some sort of startup script inside a shared folder, and the virus modified that startup script to get some sort of special acess, but that would require imbearable hacking skills to program a virus that would be smart to do so.
      most viruses are simple and direct.

    The temp folder CAN hold executables. Especially when using installers, because most time they are unzipping an executable inside them and in order to run them they need a file location so they get dropped into Temp. This can also happen for example when you copy an exe in WinRar, it will copy the exe to the real filesystem into Temp and then copies the path so CTRL+V can put the exe somewhere else

    It's possible for malware to infect the host if there's a bug in the hypervisor or your cpu's virtualisation extensions, howeverthese are very rare and I don't think I've ever seen one before.

    around 9:50 when your host's Malwarebytes sends you an alert for blocked web traffic, I'm assuming this is simply because the Virtual Machine is piggybacking off of the host's network? And essentially there is nothing to worry about, it's just the network traffic inside the virtual machine being detected which does not affect the host? Only curious if you agree, I am a novice with this stuff.

    • @laughingalien
      @laughingalien ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Nicely stated, PSY0PZ. The VM (or hypervisor) is just another process making requests and receiving responses which have to pass through the host's security protections. Of equal concern is that when requests leave the VM (without going through a VPN) - your actual IP Address (of your router) is now known. This will invite unwanted attention from BOTS looking for open ports or port forwarding weaknesses (RDP, etc., ) on your infrastructure.

    Virtualbox has a few convenience features like shared clipboard and drag and dropping files. You can set it to off, from only guest to host, from only host to guest, and bidirectional. Are these potential attack vectors for malware to exploit? If i keep it set to host to guest only or off would it be safer? I rarely need to ever pull anything _out_ of the guest system anyways. Usually only ever use such features to drop files _into_ the guest that I need, such as executables for example.

      Yap, the wifi icon is right there. The wifi drivers are in control panel,you can disable them, and re-enable later.

    1:46 if you got malwarbytes installed and working, then you've got it. those crack sites either give you malware or the real deal, next to never is the real thing packaged with malware. so no dont uninstall malwarebytes if you finished the installation

  • @pokeepoof
    @pokeepoof ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Soo your "real time protection browser testing" with websites blocked due to trojan is nothing to do with malewarebytes application and is entirely from the browser installed malewarebytes browser guard which is completely free to use and doesn't require a subscription or the desktop app from malewarebytes at all, which you should know as it isn't installed with the malewarebytes app and you manually added it to your browser. It even has the standard "browser guard" at the upper left which is as you can guess from the browser guard addon, if it was from the app it would say malewarebytes or malewarebytes premium. All this really means is browser guard did it faster but just something to note when saying it shows your desktop app blocking the sites :D

    so it is correct to say that if i use windows and i want to try a cracked program on windows it will be safer to use dual boot and run ubuntu and here install a VM with windows so if a virus infect my virtual windows i wont affect me bc the host would be ubuntu?

    @Zunile03scape ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just asking as someone who dose not know this kind of thing is it possible to defeat this kind of problem with 2 hardware modems or networks. One for host connections and the other for the virtual machines where you prevented the installation on the opposite.
    Example: Network A or Modem A software installed on Host, but not Network B or Modem B.
    --- Network B or Modem B software Installed on VM, but not Network A or Modem A.

      I can show you a simple way to play cracked games without problem. Use sandboxie.
      Harden it by making apps think they are runñing admin, and disable internet access for apps you install inside there.
      Don't drop admin, coz most games won't play. If you have a border while playing the game reduce the border size to 2.

    a few questions: i have a windows 11 VM running on a headless arch linux system under QEMU accessed through VNC, i want to do malware testing on it but i'm concerned a worm could discover my SMB share and try to put something on there or spread to my main pc on the network which is win 10. would this be possible? if so, is there an argument i could pass to qemu to disable the guest system's networking?

      you have GNU/Linux therefore you are safe. just delete all the bare metal windows on your network and use firewall on the host to block all the VMs from accessing any ports you do not explicitly allow. then everything will be secure.

    • @tacokoneko
      @tacokoneko ปีที่แล้ว

      oh if you don't want any network enabled in guest at all then that's quite easy too it's just the following argument for qemu-system-x86_64 when you execute it on the host: -nic none
