Thanks for sharing that link, Khushal! I've taken a look at the Trellix blog post on XWorm—it's a solid breakdown of how this malware's infection chain has shifted from straightforward methods to more sneaky, multi-stage approaches. Key takeaways include their use of deceptive loaders and evasion techniques to bypass detection.

If anyone's dealing with potential XWorm infections or similar RATs (Remote Access Trojans), remember to scan with reputable tools like Malwarebytes or ESET, and keep your systems patched. What's your take on this evolution—seen anything like it in the wild?
