Despite the lack of network sophistication, RomeoFoxtrot provides a large number of\r\ncommands to handle aspects of file management, process management, network proxying, and\r\nvictim computer information enumeration.\r\nThere are two known variants of RomeoFoxtrot: RomeoFoxtrot-One and RomeoFoxtrot-Two. The RomeoFoxtrot family has been observed as the payload of the IndiaCharlie\r\nvariants, with IndiaCharlie-One observed dropping RomeoFoxtrot-One and\r\nIndiaCharlie-Two observed dropping RomeoFoxtrot-Two. Functionally, the two variants\r\nare very similar with only two distinctions. The primary distinction is the inclusion of a\r\nconfiguration file for RomoeFoxtrot-Two that specifies the listening port, while\r\nRomeoFoxtrot-One uses a hardcoded value. The second is a renumbering of command\r\nidentifiers. Given the similarities, the remainder of this section will simply refer to them\r\nequally as RomeoFoxtrot unless a particular detail is specific to one variant over the\r\nother.\r\nInformation\r\n\u003chttps://www.operationblockbuster.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Operation-Blockbuster-RAT-and-Staging-Report.pdf\u003e\r\nLast change to this tool card: 20 April
