The tool uses a powerful parser and a flexible set of configuration files that are used to provide many of indicators and determine thresholds. The goal of pestudio is to spot these artifacts in order to ease and accelerate the Malware Initial Assessment. In doing so, it often leaves suspicious patterns, unexpected metadata, and sometimes even anomalies. Malicious software often attempts to hide its intents in order to evade early detection and static analysis. The commands I ran were: > cd Desktop > md5sum.exe > sha256sum.Pestudio is a tool that is used in many Cyber Emergency Response Teams (CERT) worldwide in order to perform malware initial assessment. Open up FlareVM, open the cmder, and navigate to the folder where you place the malware: retrieve scores from consume configurations filesįirst things first, Let’s get the hashes of this binary: (so how do we that?).provide hints, indicators, groups, thresholds.collect imports, exports, strings, resources.PE Studio ( Winitor) so here are the features of PE studio (this is also found in their website):
(What is Static Analysis? Static Analysis is the process of analyzing the malware without actually running it using tools like PEstudio) Here we are faced with this unknown binary.įirst we will dive into the Static Analysis part of Malware Analysis. LET’S START! :) (I suggest having a playlist companion while doing this Analysis, of course my playlist is Taylor Swift. Why do we do this? So we can always revert back to the clean state of our VM, during the moment we haven’t detonated the malware yet, like really really fresh out of the box type of VM no sus and all 💁
NOTE: Please make sure you run safety checks on your VMs before running malware, make sure they don’t communicate to your physical host and they’re only supposed to communicate with each other ( FLARE and Remnux)ĪLSO, Do not forget to have a clean snapshot of your VM. For this entry, I will be using FLARE VM where I will be detonating the malware and Remnux’s purpose is for DNS and Wireshark for Packet Capturing. For this first Malware Analysis Blog, I present you the Malware sample from HuskyHacks.
