Analysis Summary
Chinese-speaking cybercrime group Rocke, known for operating multiple large-scale malicious crypto-mining campaigns, is a financially motivated threat group using new tactics to evade detection.
This new malware strain is designed to help them set up Monero (XMR) cryptojacking operations on compromised systems, to almost non-existent detection rates. In addition to the C2 change, functionality was also added to their LSD malware to exploit ActiveMQ servers vulnerable to CVE-2016-3088.
