Description
(AhnLab) In 2022, a downloader began being detected. This is similar to Volgmer, but instead
of having backdoor features, it is a downloader that downloads another malware from an
external source and executes it in the memory area. While the downloaded payload could not
be procured, there are three notable points about it. First is that it is being detected after the
end of Volgmer’s active period. The second is that its communication method with the C&C
server and loading of the configuration data are the same as Volgmer. Lastly, it also has records
of being created by a similar dropper.
