Malware Config

Signatures

  • Deletes itself 1 IoCs
  • Executes dropped EXE 1 IoCs
  • Modifies Watchdog functionality 1 TTPs 4 IoCs

    Malware like Mirai modifies the Watchdog to prevent it restarting an infected system.

  • 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

  • Modifies systemd 2 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Adds/ modifies systemd service files. Likely to achieve persistence.

  • Reads MAC address of network interface 2 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Fetches the MAC address of active network interfaces. May be used to detect known values for hypervisors.

  • Reads hardware information 1 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Accesses system info like serial numbers, manufacturer names etc.

  • Removes the immutable protection flag from a file 1 TTPs 7 IoCs

    Uses chattr to remove the immutable flag from a file, allowing previously write-protected files to be modified or deleted.

  • Write file to user bin folder 2 IoCs
  • UPX packed file 1 IoCs

    Detects executables packed with UPX/modified UPX open source packer.

  • Changes its process name 1 IoCs
  • Reads CPU attributes 1 TTPs 1 IoCs
  • Reads system network configuration 1 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Uses contents of /proc filesystem to enumerate network settings.

  • Enumerates kernel/hardware configuration 1 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Reads contents of /sys virtual filesystem to enumerate system information.

  • Reads runtime system information 64 IoCs

    Reads data from /proc virtual filesystem.
