MASQLOADER

Description

(Trend Micro) The first observed loading method used to execute COBEACON payloads is via MASQLOADER, a DLL side-loaded loader. This loader component decrypts its payload using a substitution cipher, where the encrypted payload contains 1-3 character strings that has a hex value equivalent based on MASQLOADER’s substitution table.
