## Malware-analysis <a name="Malware-analysis"></a>
### Initial vector <a name="Initial-vector"></a>
###### Use a document with a macro as initial vector. On the code of the macro, some functions with differents names are used with the same code inside for obfuscate and make more harder the analysis.
###### Use in more at the function, strReverse for reverse the data. Finally, combine it and execute it with a Shell request.
###### This use mshta command for download and execute the external content. The bitly URL go on the pastebin share and is the first stage.

###### At the 3th layer, we can see a vb script using some obfuscating methods (StrReverse, splited variables, multiples Wscript objects)
###### Finally, the script kills the word, excel, publisher and powerpoint instances, add a persistence for re-executes this script for reinfecting the computer and create two schedule task for the second stage and close the hidden window. The persistence by Run key can look like useless but it used like an updating vector for change the TTPs or executing a kill switch on the operation.
### Second stage <a name="Second"></a>
###### The first pastebin use too a js script with with 3 layers of unescape and the previous obfuscating methods.
