Truebot is a malicious software (malware) utilized by the CL0P actors, designed to exploit and damage computer systems. This malware can infiltrate systems through suspicious downloads, emails, or websites, often without the user's knowledge. Once inside, Truebot serves multiple purposes: it can download additional modules, load shell code, side load DLLs, and even take screenshots to collect sensitive data. After its use, CL0P actors delete traces of the Truebot malware, making it challenging to detect and remove. In late 2022, Microsoft identified Truebot as part of a complex and interconnected malware ecosystem with links to other malware families such as SocGholish, Cobalt Strike, IcedID, BumbleBee, and Raspberry Robin. The latter has been reported as a precursor to these malware families, indicating a sophisticated and multi-layered threat landscape. This network of malware facilitates pre-ransomware activity, further emphasizing the severity of the threat posed by Truebot. The MD5 Hash: 6164e9d297d29aa8682971259da06848, associated with Truebot, has been flagged by numerous security vendors and trusted third parties. It is linked to UNC4509 Truebot campaigns and can be downloaded from specific URLs, such as one found on corporacionhardsoft.com. This hash serves as an artifact of the Truebot downloader variant and is a key identifier in detecting and mitigating this malware.
