Malware Config

Signatures

  • File and Directory Permissions Modification 1 TTPs 1 IoCs

    Adversaries may modify file or directory permissions to evade defenses.

  • Executes dropped EXE 1 IoCs
  • Outbound SSH connection to public host 2 TTPs 1 IoCs

    SSH is used for remote access. This may indicate SSH host discovery, encrypted C2 traffic, or data exfiltration.

  • Creates/modifies Cron job 1 TTPs 1 IoCs

    Cron allows running tasks on a schedule, and is commonly used for malware persistence.

  • Enumerates active TCP sockets 1 TTPs 1 IoCs

    Gets active TCP sockets from /proc virtual filesystem.

  • Enumerates running processes

    Discovers information about currently running processes on the system

  • Reads system network configuration 1 TTPs 4 IoCs

    Uses contents of /proc filesystem to enumerate network settings.

  • Reads runtime system information 64 IoCs

    Reads data from /proc virtual filesystem.

  • Writes file to tmp directory 14 IoCs

    Malware often drops required files in the /tmp directory.
