Farseer is a previously unknown Windows backdoor that uses DLL side-loading, a signed Microsoft Visual Studio executable, and VBScript registry persistence to launch during user login.
Windows backdoor malware that uses DLL sideloading with trusted signed binaries, loads encrypted/compressed payloads in memory, establishes persistence via a Run registry key and VBS script, and beacons to pre-configured C2 servers for instructions while attempting to evade detection and forensic analysis.
Windows backdoor trojan that persists via registry run keys, uses DLL sideloading with a signed Microsoft binary, loads an encrypted/compressed payload and communicates with command-and-control servers over HTTP.
A previously unknown malware family/backdoor referenced through shared infrastructure overlaps with other Chinese espionage tooling.
