I want to show some of the tools and the knowledge necessary for a bot researcher to compile botnet software.While Crasher came across to collect the Master Renegade some opportunism from Turbo meant the Guardians avoided destruction and were able to return to GoBotron and warn the Guardian Council. The purpose of this post is just to get GoBot2 malware compiled. I am going to come back to this initial malware assessment in a future post. Many organizations are basing their defenses on signature-based only. Step #9: Initial Malware Assessment Virus Total for GoBot2ġ3 engines have found GoBot2 malicious, for mostly the keylogger. Shown above, the GoBot.exe malware in the bin directory.
#Gobot virus install
Shown above, a successful install of GoBot2 malware with Sublime.
In my case, BitDefender recognized GoBot2 as a malicious keylogger.Īlso, installing does not execute GoBot2, but compiles the malware and places it in the C:\Projects\Go\bin directory. When the project is installed these flags will be used.īefore installing GoBot2, make sure you do not have anti-virus. The install flags were added to the Sublime Project File. The important parameter: -ldflags “-H windowsgui” Sublime Project File Several parameters are suggested for compilation. In the first line of Melt.go,, comment out package main and add package components.Īt line 19 of ScreenCapture.go, comment out AllenDang and add TheTitanrain.
Several of which contains errors which prevent compilation.
The components contain many small GO programs. It contains the main function which loads the configuration of the components. GoBot2.go is the main package which includes all of the components for compilation of the GoBot2 malware: w32 contains a variable declaration error that is corrected with g /TheTitanrain/w32. Here are the packages that were installed. Here is the list of Go commands executed for the packages that are required for successful compilation of the malware: Taken from I had to download /TheTitanrain/w32 as a replacement. Also, I had to download an additional package, since /AllenDang/w32 contains a variable type error. Several Packages are needed for successful compilation. The GoBot2 botnet code was uncompressed into C:\Projects\Go\src\GoBot2. A great reference for setting up Sublime with Go: ( ). From past experiences, I anticipated needing to edit the source code to get the malware to successfully compile. There sub-directories were created under GOPATH: bin, pkg, src. Per the Windows instructions, environment variables were set for the Path and for GOPATH.
#Gobot virus windows 10
Once Go was downloaded, Windows 10 was configured for Go ( ). Step #1: Go Installation and Configuration I hope you enjoy this post and gain a deeper appreciation for botnet research. It took two weeks to complete this post, working two hours a night during the week. I had not prior Go programming language knowledge before beginning the fun and interesting journey. I broke down compiling the GoBot2 malware into nine logical steps. Step #1: Go Installation and Configuration.
Here are the steps for compiling the GoBot2 malware: First, I would like to mention I am performing all of the experimentation on a Dell All-In-One PC with Windows 10.

This post will focus on how to compile the GoBot2 malware. The last few posts have provided some background on the GoBot malware.
