      From: hankrobins@notspam.uk              https://unit42.paloaltonetworks.com/new-linux-backdoor-auto-color/              Between early November and December 2024, Palo Alto Networks researchers       discovered new Linux malware called Auto-color. We chose this name based on       the file name the initial payload renames itself after installation.              The malware employs several methods to avoid detection, such as:              Using benign-looking file names for operating       Hiding remote command and control (C2) connections using an advanced       technique similar to the one used by the Symbiote malware family       Deploying proprietary encryption algorithms to hide communication and       configuration information       Once installed, Auto-color allows threat actors full remote access to       compromised machines, making it very difficult to remove without       specialized software.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
