Compliance Node Overview
MITRE ATT&CK T1055.005 (Thread Local Storage) is an Enterprise Defense Evasion and Privilege Escalation sub-technique of T1055 (Process Injection). Adversaries may inject malicious code into processes via thread local storage (TLS) callbacks in order to evade process-based defenses as well as possibly elevate privileges. TLS callback injection is a method of executing arbitrary code in the address space of a separate live process. TLS callback injection involves manipulating pointers inside a portable executable (PE) to redirect a process to malicious code before reaching the code's legitimate entry point. Affected platforms: Windows. MITRE-documented mitigations include M1040 Behavior Prevention on Endpoint. The Center for Threat-Informed Defense maps this technique to NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls AC-02, AC-03, AC-05, AC-06, CM-05, CM-06, IA-02, SC-07.
