A new multi-platform backdoor malware named 'SysJocker' has emerged in the wild, targeting Windows, Linux, and macOS with the ability to evade detection on all three operating systems.
The discovery of the new malware comes from researchers at Intezer who first saw signs of its activity in December 2021 after investigating an attack on a Linux-based web server.
The first uploads of the malware sample on VirusTotal occurred in H2 2021, which also aligns with the C2 domain registration times.
The security analysts have now published a detailed technical report on SysLocker, which they shared with Bleeping Computer before publication.
[...] "Next, SysJoker will gather information about the machine using Living off the Land (LOtL) commands. SysJoker uses different temporary text files to log the results of the commands,” explains Intezer’s report.
