Beware of crack disguised malware distribution (V3 Lite installation interference)

  • AhnLab Security Intelligence Center (ASEC) has previously warned about the dangers of malicious code disguised as crack programs, such as XMRig and OurcusRAT.
  • These malicious codes disguised as crack programs are often distributed through web hard drives, blogs, and torrents, leading to multiple system infections.
  • The attackers continuously manage the infected systems by regularly updating the malware.
  • In this particular case, the attackers install different malicious codes depending on the presence of V3 software, and they maintain persistence by updating the malware through task scheduler registration.
