Description
(Talos) Cisco Talos has discovered a new Android malware based on a leak of the
Dendroid malware family. We named this malware 'WolfRAT' due to strong links between
this malware (and the command and control (C2) infrastructure) and Wolf Research, an
infamous organization that developed interception and espionage-based malware and was
publicly described by CSIS during Virus Bulletin 2018. We identified infrastructure
overlaps and string references to previous Wolf Research work. The organization appears
to be shut down, but the threat actors are still very active.
We identified campaigns targeting Thai users and their devices. Some of the C2 servers are
located in Thailand. The panels also contain Thai JavaScript comments and the domain
names also contain references to Thai food, a tactic commonly employed to entice users to
click/visit these C2 panels without much disruption.
