Malware Config

Signatures

  • Creates/modifies Cron job 1 TTPs 4 IoCs

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

  • Modifies init.d 2 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Adds/modifies system service, likely for persistence.

  • Modifies systemd 2 TTPs 2 IoCs

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

  • Command and Scripting Interpreter: Unix Shell 1 TTPs 2 IoCs

    Execute scripts via Unix Shell.

  • Enumerates kernel/hardware configuration 1 TTPs 2 IoCs

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

  • Reads runtime system information 14 IoCs

    Reads data from /proc virtual filesystem.

  • Writes file to tmp directory 1 IoCs

    Malware often drops required files in the /tmp directory.
