Abstract

“ We continue to analyse the Shamoon malware. This blog contains information about the internals of the malicious samples involved in this campaign.

Samples nesting The main executable (dropper) includes 3 resources, each maintains a ciphered program. The cipher is pretty simple – xor by dword. This was mentioned in our first blog-post. Resource PKCS12:112 maintains an encoded executable, xor’ed with key value 0xFB5D7F25. It is saved to disk using a name taken from a hardcoded list in the %WINDIR%\System32 folder during the dropper execution. In turn, this module maintains resource READONE :101 (xor key: 0xF052AF15), a driver decoded and saved to disk as %WINDIR%\System32\Drivers\DRDISK.SYS.
