#ESETresearch is offering you a #behindthescenes look at the diligent work required to see through the
obfuscation techniques used in the recently described #Wslink, unique and undocumented
malicious loader that runs as a server. 1/5

Wslink’s multilayered #virtualmachine introduced a diverse arsenal of #obfuscation techniques, which
we were able to overcome to reveal a part of the deobfuscated malicious code. 2/5

#ESETresearch has discovered a unique and undescribed #loader for Windows binaries that, unlike other such loaders, runs as a server and executes received modules in memory. We have named this new malware #Wslink after one of its DLLs. 1/7 @HrckaVladislav welivesecurity.com/2021/10/27/wsl…
The initial compromise vector is not known, and we have seen only a few hits in our telemetry in the past two years, with detections in Central Europe, North America, and the Middle East. 2/7
There are no similarities that suggest this is likely to be a tool from a known threat actor group. Wslink runs as a service and listens on all network interfaces on the port specified in the ServicePort registry value of the service’s Parameters key. 3/7
