A sample identified in September 2020 has updated functionality which appears to\nbe inspired the RPC backdoors previously publicly disclosed by ESET and Symantec\nResearchers as well as with the Carbon backdoor. Based on these similarities, we assess\nwith high confidence that HyperStack is a custom Turla backdoor.\nInformation\nMITRE ATT\u0026CK Malpedia Last change to this tool card: 30 December 2022\nDownload this tool card in JSON format\nAll groups using tool HyperStack\nChanged Name Country Observed\nhttps://apt.etda.or.th/cgi-bin/listgroups.cgi?u=f1280fc8-feb4-4480-ac03-2ce589fece0a\nPage 1 of 2\n\nAPT groups\r\n  Turla, Waterbug, Venomous Bear 1996-2024  \r\n1 group listed (1 APT, 0 other, 0 unknown)\r\nSource: https://apt.etda.or.th/cgi-bin/listgroups.cgi?u=f1280fc8-feb4-4480-ac03-2ce589fece0a\r\nhttps://apt.etda.or.th/cgi-bin/listgroups.cgi?u=f1280fc8-feb4-4480-ac03-2ce589fece0a\r\nPage 2 of 2",
