Dear Threat Actor(s) targeting POS systems,

After malwrhunterteam saw your malware payloads being distributed online, presumably trying to infect restaurants like Buffalo Wild Wings, I can see you've switched up your tactics a little.

Your latest payload, which is delivered from a different web domain, is absolutely cooked.

You forgot to strip the metadata out of your payload. I was able to immediately recover everything and quite literally get your payload back to damn near the original source code.

I can see how you're:
- Keylogging
- Managing these computers remotely with Hidden VNC
- Registering infected machines with your C2
- Attempting to evade security products
- Pulling credit-card numbers out of POS systems when customers swipe their credit card
- Attempting to move laterally over the network by exploiting SMB
- etc

It would be unethical of me to give you advice on how to write malware, but I really want to emphasize that I know you're using AI to write this malware and that you're making really goofy mistakes. Your domain "test(.)qovexira(.)xyz" is in plain text and is directly under the function "register_with_c2".
