Obfuscating payloads is so fun. You can do all sorts of things like sleep before execution, pack the malware, inject into another process, etc. Would love to see you cover something like Freeze in the future!
sleep before execution usually doesn't do shit let's be real here.. I've also come across malware that first checks whether or not any debugging tools are actively on it, and other methods like executing code and checking if it took a little longer than normal, or checking certain things on the machine to try and identify whether or not the code is running inside a VM or sandbox..
@@Krullfath for sure. It's still a commonly observed practice though. I'd also love to see those methods of obfuscation too. I'm still kind of a newb in this space so I'm trying to learn what I can lol.
one of the weirdest things happened to a friend of mine which left me puzzled for ages... long story short my friend actively trades gaming accounts for multiple online games and he's well aware of the tricks scammers they pull on you...BUT this one time a hacker sent him what was supposed to be a picture of account details when he clicked the picture the device froze his accounts on social media got hacked and he's device got wiped clean...i'm aware of images that cause system crash on different mobile devices... but a picture that could pull off all that wizardry in limited time is insane to think about
Maybe the picture was just the "Trojan horse" used to hide a program that steal browser's infos (info stealer that copy the browser's login tokens) and with that they can access the logged in accounts without the needs of any password🤷
A great example of how while signature scanning is still an important measure, the real protection of any competent security suite lies in live behavioral analysis. For all the AV-deniers out there.

sometimes I feel the best antivirus is really just the human brain, and I don't just mean avoiding sus links and that kind of stuff I mean using tools that allows you to see every single thing happening on your computer rather than blindly relying on an antivirus to do that for you.
You're not wrong, but unfortunately not every user has a brain. Or perhaps it would be better to say that they lack the knowledge required and must blindly rely on antivirus. The average user is simply that, average, and likely not skilled enough to comprehend and utilise the tools that go beyond automatically performing a scan or similar action and outputting an answer that must be trusted. If you should happen to know of such a tool that even my Grandma could use and understand, I would be glad to hear of it.
@@tablettablete186 those are very rare thankfully, I don't think human nor antivirus is going to easily find malicious code in something like an image file.
Making malware undetected against static checks is quite easy. Load all your suspicious dlls at runtime and obfuscate strings (xor or some modified base64 type)
@@novianindy887 Correct or in case of Malware, that you load certain dlls and get certain addresses at runtime. Lets say you want to open a socket for a remote shell. You can just use the WSA funcrions directly inside your code. In this case your program says "Hey I need this dll" on startup and for that contains all needed function in its import table, which then gets filled out by windows. Its like ordering a menu, the program basically says what it wants and windows provides it. Some AVs check imports of files and flag suspicious one (like a lot of network activity, or certain functions). When you load the Libarys, you use LoadLibary and then receive the pointer to the function via GetProcAddress. This also allows you to "encrypt" strings. This means the functions you use wont show up in the imports of the program, which helps to prevent detections from AVs, because the AV cant see what functions you. The other case is dll injection, where you injct a dll into another process and in this case you try, that the dll never hits the disc, so a Researcher has more fun searching.
And for that case I have backups and then backups of the backups, using Windoze and Linux alike. If they get my data I cannot do much about it, but for encrypting my disk, I have clones of my OSs too, so restoration will be rather quick.
Yes, every time I make my own small python program and want to pack into a single executable, that executable gets flagged by most AV software simply because it's packed...
It just so happens we were discussion this very thing today, we were asked approve a proggy that was UPX packed and 3 of the scanners flagged it. And of course we asked ourselves the same question you did as it was 3-4 years old- is it legit packed or dumb hacker.
Most of the malware prevents running on virtual machines, so try to change your os to act like a virtualmachine. Most of the time a Sandbox Usernames is enough. 🤫 Happy surfing

Can you make a video showing us how to set up an ips?
you have to share malware samples, and give us a quick guide to simulate some PT test
maybe a good way to improve security
