douglasg14bSo, essentially, really poorly written malware? Given the number of assumptions it makes without any sort of robustness around system configuration it’s about as good as a script kiddie script.
DrinkBobaThis is… clearly a meme…
I wasn’t sure about it either. There’s security researchers out there who might genuinely want to get a virus to run in a VM.
But yeah, the cmalw-lib-2.0 gives it away…
Yeah, nobody uses cmalw-lib-2.0
Its deprecated, now we use hack-lib-client-1.17
systemd-malwared and it’s front-end malctl are how the cool kids are doing it.
systemd haters will moan and groan about ‘bloat’ and ‘unnecessary end-user hacking libraries’ smh
Not too long ago, when Fracturiser was a concern on Minecraft, and I read up on it, I got a chuckle when I read that stage 2 was a systemd service, and therefore couldn’t have run on my machine even if it had gotten that far (of course, I still checked for signs of infection)
ZagorathI wasn’t sure about it either
It ends with them donating money to the malware’s creator…
Yes, that is odd, but not impossible either. I’ve seen influencers do dumb shit like that for the attention.
