Malware Config

Signatures

  • DcRat

    DarkCrystal(DC) is a new .NET RAT active since June 2019 capable of loading additional plugins.

  • Process spawned unexpected child process 45 IoCs

    This typically indicates the parent process was compromised via an exploit or macro.

  • UAC bypass 3 TTPs 3 IoCs
  • DCRat payload 5 IoCs

    Detects payload of DCRat, commonly dropped by NSIS installers.

  • Checks whether UAC is enabled 1 TTPs 2 IoCs
  • Drops file in System32 directory 2 IoCs
  • Drops file in Program Files directory 15 IoCs
  • Drops file in Windows directory 2 IoCs
  • Creates scheduled task(s) 1 TTPs 45 IoCs

    Schtasks is often used by malware for persistence or to perform post-infection execution.

  • Suspicious behavior: EnumeratesProcesses 7 IoCs
  • Suspicious use of AdjustPrivilegeToken 1 IoCs
  • System policy modification 1 TTPs 3 IoCs
  • Uses Task Scheduler COM API 1 TTPs

    The Task Scheduler COM API can be used to schedule applications to run on boot or at set times.
