Carbon Black - Joe Sandbox Connector

The Joe Sandbox connector submits binaries collected by Carbon Black to a Joe Sandbox appliance for binary analysis. The results are collected and placed into an Intelligence Feed on your Carbon Black server. The feed will then tag any binaries executed on your endpoints identified as malware by Joe Sandbox. Only binaries submitted by the connector for analysis will be included in the generated Intelligence Feed.

Installation Quickstart

First, download the rpm package located in dist from Github. As root on your Carbon Black or other RPM based 64-bit Linux distribution server:

curl -Lo /tmp/joesandbox.rpm https://github.com/joesecurity/carbonblack-connector/raw/master/dist/python-cb-joesandbox-connector-1.2-8.x86_64.rpm
rpm -i /tmp/joesandbox.rpm

Configuration

Once the software is installed, it is time to configure the integration. Copy the example integration:

cd /etc/cb/integrations/joesandbox
cp connector.conf.example connector.conf

Edit this file and place your Carbon Black API key into the carbonblack_server_token variable and your Carbon Black server's base URL into the carbonblack_server_url variable.

Then you must place your credentials for Joe Sandbox into the configuration file: place your API key and API token respectively into the joesandbox_apikey and joesandbox_apiurl. Please enable joesandbox_accept_tac=1.

If you are using an on-premise Joe Sandbox appliance, make sure to place the URL for your on-premise Joe Sandbox appliance in the joesandbox_url variable and set joesandbox_url_sslverify to 0 if your appliance does not have a valid SSL certificate.

Now restart the integration server:

/etc/init.d/cb-joesandbox-connector restart

Any errors will be logged into /var/log/cb/integrations/joesandbox/joesandbox.log.

Connecting to Carbon Black

In Cb Response navigate to Threat Intelligence and then click Add New Feed. If you installed the connector on the same server as Cb Response, the URL is http://127.0.0.1:4000/feed.json.

The connector is now installed configured and should start analyzing binaries.

Troubleshooting

If you suspect a problem, please first look at the Joe Sandbox connector logs found here: /var/log/cb/integrations/joesandbox/joesandbox.log (There might be multiple files as the logger "rolls over" when the log file hits a certain size).

If you want to re-run the analysis across your binaries:

1. Stop the service: /etc/init.d/cb-joesandbox-connector stop
2. Remove the database file: rm /usr/share/cb/integrations/joesandbox/db/sqlite.db
3. Remove the feed from your Cb server's Threat Intelligence page
4. Restart the service: /etc/init.d/cb-joesandbox-connector start
