GeminiDuke

Description

(F-Secure) The GeminiDuke toolset consists of a core information stealer, a loader and multiple persistence-related components. Unlike CosmicDuke and PinchDuke, GeminiDuke primarily collects information on the victim computer’s configuration. The collected details include: • Local user accounts • Network settings • Internet proxy settings • Installed drivers • Running processes • Programs previously executed by users • Programs and services configured to automatically run at startup • Values of environment variables • Files and folders present in any users home folder • Files and folders present in any users My Documents • Programs installed to the Program Files folder • Recently accessed files, folders and programs

As is common for malware, the GeminiDuke infostealer uses a mutex to ensure that only one instance of itself is running at a time. What is less common is that the name used for the mutex is often a timestamp. We believe these timestamps to be generated during the compilation of GeminiDuke from the local time of the computer being used.
