Description
(ESET) Evilnum group also uses 64-bit executables that decrypt and run a Meterpreter
instance in memory. The use of Meterpreter gives them flexibility and the ability to run various
payloads in a stealthy and extensible way.
The structure of these components and the integrity checks implemented were identified as
TerraLoader (More_eggs) code. That’s why we refer to these components as TerraPreter.
