That was very interesting. I really enjoyed watching you take this whole thing apart. It never ceases to amaze just how far malware creators go to conceal and drop their payloads into people's machines.
I'm so excited for this. After watching your first Malware analysis I was HOOKED! I've watched all 4-5 videos multiple times. It's gotten to the point where I can recite your words exactly. It's so exciting watching you go through the code, peeling back layers, and going off on a tangent trying to look something up. Seriously John, I'm addicted at this point. I kinda wish I would've stumbled upon your channels 5 years from now, because then there would've been a catalogue to fill my desires. Oh well, at least I can add this video to my repeat cycles, and watch it 10 times over, just like the other ones.

that's quite the fervor for some videos about malware analysis. Its really got your attention, eh?
I'm sure you already know this, but 128 bytes is the length of a digital signature for a 1024 bit modulus. Converting those 128 bytes (+1 for padding) using base64 encoding gives you 172 characters. Also 0x010001 is a commonly used exponent for RSA parameter sets.

Hello John! I actually learned something new for myself, so thank you :) This video has helped me a lot!
Thank you a lot John Hammond. I always learn something new in your videos and I really appreciate your content! Hope to see more of this powershell obfuscation!
Love watching these on my way into work ☺️
I love all the malware analysis video so much ! thanks !
I watched every second of this and have literally no idea what is happening. good stuff!
this is your best video imo, so funny, and informative.
judging by the amount of spam in this comment section I'd hazard a guess and say that you're been hit by, you've been struck by, an automated system that goes only off title keywords

came across this video while researching Lemon Duck, a Great breakdown and walkthrough. Can you recommend any solutions on how to remove the malware from an infected machine?
This is a fantastic video. Well done, sir.
If you want to replace single letter variables, you can use the word-boundaries from regex: \ (end of a word). So you should be able to replace $d\> with $data
Awesome video. A quick question. Where do I get a copy so as I would like to go though the process myself.
These videos are awesome, keep up the great work!!!
Love how you break these down
how much preparation you make on video before recording I mean what you do with the sample you downloaded before recording
John, my friend. 7:30am, I'm still dreaming that I am Chris Hemsworth. So early lol.
Damn this is a good video. I like to see more malware analysis tutorials (walkthroughs)
I’m new to Cub Sec and I’m doing it as a hobby. How do you get your hands on the payload without it executing so you can break it down?
Always Enjoy Your Vids
test1 could come from an earlier IEX? I'm learning a lot from your unpeelings, keep up the good work!
Sadly everyone is so much smarer at computers, BUT! I feel at home in analysis, because John Hammond is my go to with my morning coffee.🌻
getting iex outta comspec was the aha moment for me :D thanks john for feeding us regularly with nerd bites
Great Video! I love it!!! keep it up.
John "I could just replace this with nothing, but I'd rather do some fancy RegEx expression" Hammond. Rolls off the tongue!
Between these unpeeling videos, and your deep dive into the dark web, this is more fun than watching Mr. Robot.
Talos always have great and comprehensive reports.
Isn't it possible the jsp page need a parameter value set to do anything?
you know it's super cheezy to have that cmatrix background for your website when it contains no useful data

Hi John I really enjoy your videos. You are awesome! Am really hoping you are using somekind of the proxy when checking if the malicious domain is still up. You can hide your IP in the video, but you cannot hide it from the server owner logs...
Great deobfuscation walkthrough! IEX still the way to go so it seems
Omg so cool! I want that sneak skill. It's like make IEX out of someone's computer
What if you were to curl the jsp file with the lemon-duck header?
jus kernt more aabout regexp then ever knewed ! thxu, again ;]
So interesting !! Would be interesting if you talk about who could do such malware. Do you think a single person could have developed it? Or is it more likely a team? How long would it take for a single person to develop such complex malware?
@mattsadventureswithart5764

A single guy wrote the whole of TempleOS, including writing his own version of a "c" type language to code it in, and a lod of apps for it. It's very believable to suggest that a single person could write this malware entirely on their own. I don't know if true or if a team did this, just that's its believable that someone could have done.
Hi, John! I heard they ported PowerShell to MacOS and GNU/Linux too. I can't say why exactly they think it'd be important to have it somewhere else than on MS Windows, still they did it. Probably to allow OS-independent malware, lol. Thanks for the videos, liked them a lot.

FBI's gotta get their data from you somehow, no matter what OS you're on
wouldn't surprise me if the attacker is keeping an eye on connections to the URL, after so many hits or if certain probing command come in it probably turns off to hide itself
Love your videos sir.
always a blast !!
Can u give me a guide step by step about reverse engineering. like i want to enter in malware analysis and cracking software so where i should start beginning to advance

The whole reason this script looks at the graphics card (and hash rates) are because if those exist, it wants to use them. You can generate more hashes (earn more money) with a graphics card vs a cpu. Not sure if you pick up on this later, only 41min in lol.
Watching your videos is making me want to learn Python, not to mention get more experienced in Linux.
here we go again :D
I understand like 5%, but I love it!
I actually had this on my computer good to know what it was doing.

Stupid question but why doesn't the (.) create a copy of the character in front of the '? Like ob'ject to objject?

The (.) counts as part of the match. So the find-and-replace sees `j, goes "that matches my pattern `(thing)", then replaces it with (thing) - i.e. j

In reference to replacing the back ticks... Can't you just replace them with an empty box? That would remove them.

You shouldn't be getting a cached page if you already are including random data in the query. Maybe the date serves another purpose.

I'd say the idea of a crypto worm is nothing new to the whole idea. The thought of even attaching backdoors not mainly to alter information but to sap the hardware capabilities of a targeted system. Computer evolved over the conception of increased amounts of stress testing, that being said insights that the machine can handle more task automated by services and regulated thru the registers. The service of a crypto miner is to solve calculations of equations that maintain the blockchain's structure. Which it's self a symbolic link to a hash dump of data (bytes, ints, func, etc); The direction of a numeral scale of which character is switch with another cryptic character to a chain of undifferentiated value. Which holds meaning of the reason a coin hold limited capacity due to the different, individual, and separate values, in example if a blockchain was a configuration of hybals 0000 - 1111 it would only hold 16 coins. Then we divide the value by 2 which in turn increase capacity of 32 different values but only 1 coin will equal the concurrent value of 2 different values. The worm purpose is to grow. Hermaphrodism, self-replicating which in turns is in meaning of a manifestation of a virus, yet the worm needs data to consume so the data is the blockchain itself but to a signature of grasp, drop, split and divide like a middleman within the transaction of transferred bitstreams that identify the blockchain.
Ah shite here we go again
Fox push 43669? what subject litr
I dont really see the point of the obfuscation lol there's always some simple way to deobfuscate since they will have to eval or iex... you just end up pinpointing where that is and voila.
I don't know about yall but when someone brings Ooknib 6mook to the hootenanny in my town, everybody's goin hogwild
Games incorporate lemon into code to then get hash rate from all users discretely
