JScript Deobfuscation - More WSHRAT (Malware Analysis)

[@mycotina6438]

I love it so much how you speak out loud what you're thinking as you work through the code. I think this kind of video is a lot more useful than tutorials, because we get to see the thought process and from where the ideas come from trough the trials and error.

[@Irisilol]

When John goes "OH NOOOOOOO" you know the code is evil.

[@litmussales9750]

I'm happy seeing you having fun with my codes. I love that part where you said OMG!!!

[@erin1569]

Are people really complaining about python? It's incredibly comfy. It's often as simple as saying: "Jarvis, convert this code into recognizable commands", but with a few extra words.

God I love this. I started watching your videos thanks to the KZbin Algorithm and had no idea what you are doing. Now I am starting to pick up on things here and there. More more more!

[@hunterbodell1129]

I hate that these are so good that I wake up at 6 for them

[@murkdurk8961]

You might need to rethink your priorities🤭

[@alexlefevre8226]

I don't wake up early to watch, but I do wake up to schedule the download, automagically chop the resolution down a bit, and finally upload to a part of my cloud storage where I store every one of these for the future. Kinda silly... But I am using these videos as a set of walkthroughs and have learned an "asston" so far. John does such a good job with these! His ah-ha moments have become the center of mass of which I orbit around. Keep it up John... Please!!! Although I know you were busy with the huge ransomware attack recently. Your name was in probably a dozen of the 15 I read. As if I didn't already respect the crap out of you

That was some slick coding to get those vars into the correct places! Well done sir, stuff like that is why I love this channel!

[@cheshirecat6519]

I don’t know **** about programming language and malware decoding and reverse engineering and stuff but It’s the 5th video I watch this week on your channel. Just saying.

[@sebastianinnez3395]

surely John teaches us HOW to obfuscate, looks awesome!

[@jannikmeissner]

At 39:38 I was like "yeees I did suspect 2031 would be the port the C2 server is running on" and it felt sooo good when this suspicion was met.

that filename actualy is from romanian language and it translates to INVOICE in english

too inspiring, despite I'm in totally other field of work actually now I'm involved in my free time in coding with python & analysis of C applications since I started watching you almost one year ago. High respect brother keep it up always !!

No, the syntax highlight in Sublime Text was working fine, the problem was in escaping borderline quote symbols, for instance.

[@Colaholiker]

Seeing this, I am so glad that my computer would not be vulnerable to this. I doubt, I can apt install WSH. And even if I could, I would not. :-)

I think John was the one who stole the $600mil of ETH and was trying to bring us valuable ententertaining content. Also the way that John acts reminds me of the somewhat "innocence" of the ETH hacker... like "uh, oh, what did I do?" Then returns it all back.

[@claudiafischering901]

I found a wired server with a bunch of applications from a doc vba file. But I think this server should be offline now. I think I delete the file because the file which has been downloaded was not on the server. All I know is that target was windows - but it was sended up to a MAC User - that is a little bit stupid I guess. Thanks for video - I have a lot of fun.

I always watch your reviews and always wonder: what is usually your next step after the analysis? do you follow up reporting the c2 server? if you eventually find out an unreported malware will you follow up with a report? just wondering because these actions can help users in the end of the day. - also, thanks for putting out always some good content

[@SuiGio]

Hey man, I have a obfuscated js code which creates a chrome extension for a game. I was wondering if you would like to share that with you, see if there's a malware in it? Would really like to see whats beneath it, since I've been using it many years now. Let me know how to reach out to you. Cheers, great content!

How would the js ever reach out of the browser?

[@carterplasek498]

He references this in a few other videos, this isn't Javascript, it is JScript, which is a confusing way of saying it is Microsoft's Javascript, a scripting language using the same (or very similar) syntax to javascript, but does windows stuff and can run on windows.

More analysis/reverse engineering, less googling please. Do it off-camera, and if there's any insights, give a summary. I don't like watching someone else browse. I can do that myself.

@@miyu1424 yeah agree, he is working through and displaying it to us at the same time... I think his concern is that more deep code analysis should be done for C# exe's or binaries in video but that would take immense lot of time...
