What is BlackWorM v6.0?


BlackWorM v6.0 is an evolution of earlier versions, incorporating polymorphic encryption, anti-debugging tricks, and multiple persistence mechanisms. It functions as both a self-replicating worm and a backdoor RAT, making it highly adaptable for cybercriminal operations. Its modular architecture allows attackers to customize payloads, including ransomware, spyware, or cryptocurrency miners.

Detailed Features of BlackWorM v6.0

  1. Polymorphic Code Obfuscation
    • Changes its binary signature with each infection to bypass AV detection.
    • Uses runtime encryption and junk code injection to hinder static analysis.
  2. Worm-like Propagation
    • Spreads via network shares, USB drives, and weak RDP credentials.
    • Exploits EternalBlue (MS17-010) and other unpatched vulnerabilities.
  3. Remote Access & C2 Communication
    • Establishes encrypted C2 channels (HTTP/HTTPS, DNS tunneling).
    • Supports live remote desktop control, file exfiltration, and shell access.
  4. Data Theft & Espionage
    • Harvests passwords, browser cookies, and credit card data via keylogging.
    • Dumps credentials using Mimikatz-style attacks from memory.
