2015-02-06 - TRAFFIC PATTERN CHANGE IN CRYPTOWALL 3.0 SAMPLE
ASSOCIATED FILES:
- ZIP of the pcap: 2015-02-06-CryptoWall-3.0-infection-traffic.pcap.zip
- ZIP of the malware: 2015-02-06-CryptoWall-3.0-sample.zip
NOTES:
- Today, Bryan Manradge sent me a CryptoWall 3.0 sample that I took a look at.
- Traffic patterns from an infected VM are different than when I first saw CryptoWall 3.0 (link), so I'm documenting this in a blog entry.
- In today's sample, the bitcoin wallet address for the ransom payment is: 15WUYqKerTtxi4rUEmnakw5gRMkr3nZCQd
