Avast discovered a distribution point where a malware toolset is hosted, but also serves as temporary storage for the gigabytes of data being exfiltrated on a daily basis, including documents, recordings, and webmail dumps including scans of passports from Asian, American and European citizens and diplomats applying for Burmese visas, from Burmese human rights activists and Burmese government institutions.
We recently came across a peculiar sample – a stager we believe is being used by Mustang Panda. The stager led us to the group’s distribution point, where we found malicious toolsets. We have analyzed the malware and were able to see relations between various campaigns that have been described by other cybersecurity firms over the course of the last years. Based on publicly published research and our own investigations, we can say with high confidence that the modus operandi and the malicious toolset show a strong link to a group related to Mustang Panda, which has previously been reported as a Chinese APT group. The group has been known for gathering intelligence on Mongolia, and further Asian countries, and most recently was suspected of targeting European entities.
The distribution point, an FTP server, is also used as a transition point for exfiltrated victim data, before the data is moved to an unknown location. We continue to observe new data being uploaded and moved from the point, meaning the campaign is still active, and has been going on for some time. Gigabytes of data are moved around, and the amount of data indicates severe compromise of many high-profile targets in Myanmar. The data types include various office documents and PDFs, stolen browser profiles, webmail dumps and even sound recordings. Browsing profiles were also extracted which can provide access to other infrastructures, services, and private data of the victims. Most of the stolen data seems to be in Burmese making it challenging to analyze. The sensitive data is mainly being collected from devices used by the Myanmar government, state administration, police, army, significant public organizations, or companies, and includes data related to diplomatic meetings, court hearings, military information, contracts and more.
Disclaimer: We have only seen partial snapshots of the exfiltrated data as they are deleted shortly after being moved from the distribution point, so it should be noted that the information we have on victims may be inaccurate or incomplete. Most of the documents are in Burmese, therefore, a language barrier has also to be taken into account. Finally, due to the limited scope and the sheer volume of the data, some assumptions had to be made during the research process. We have reached out to local CERTs, informing them of our findings.
Victimology
Nearly all of the victims have close ties to Myanmar and it seems that both the Burmese government and opposition groups are being targeted. We have seen data originating from various departments of several Burmese ministries. Even the Office of the State Administrative Council has been targeted. The government breach is not isolated to Myanmar – we have also seen Myanmar embassies among targets, for example, the embassy in Serbia. The data also contained dumps of a mailbox used to communicate in 2016 and 2017, as well as in 2020 with visa applicants from all around the world. These messages contained scans of passports from citizens and diplomats from various countries, such as China, Australia, Czech Republic, France, Israel, Netherlands, UK, and USA.
After such an extensive list of targets, it ought to be little surprise that Myanmar Police Force is also among the targets. Even some higher profile departments, such as the Office of the Information Police Chief or the Department of Special Investigation, seem to have been breached. Tatmadaw (Myanmar Armed Forces) is also not an exception – we have seen victims from the Bureau of Air Defense, Myanmar Army Engineering, and the United Wa State Army.
Political NGOs and the government’s opposition are also on the list of victims. It is possible that the list is even more extensive as we may not be able to find a straightforward association to said organizations as we would expect more common usage of personal computers or computers that are not centrally maintained by an IT department. We have seen data from devices belonging to the Karen National Union, Center for Diversity and National Harmony, National Reconciliation and Peace Centre, Ethnic Nationalities Affairs Center, and even the Union Civil Service Board.
Exfiltrated Data
The most common file types being exfiltrated by the group are Microsoft Office documents (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx, etc.), PDF documents, and plain text files. Other file types exfiltrated include audiovisual data in various forms, including sound recordings (.mp3), and pictures (.jpg, .png, etc.) or drawings. Emails, including entire conversations are also exfiltrated.
It appears that the attackers are also looking for and collecting data from browser profiles from various web browsers, e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and more, a serious threat to victims’ privacy. The stolen browser profiles can provide access to other infrastructures, services, and the victims’ private data of the victims. The attackers are extracting information about browsing history, stored credentials (personal and work), credit cards, used tokens, and valid cookie sessions. Consequently, poorly secured services, such as services without two-factor authentication or without a safe cookie policy, can be easily abused by attackers. Attackers can steal the identity of victims and can use their email, Facebook, Telegram, or other accounts to collect additional information about the victim and their family, friends, and activities.
Highly sensitive data is being collected from victims’ computers, and, in most cases, these are computers used by the Myanmar government, state administration, police, army, significant public organizations, or companies. This in some cases included sensitive data and information belonging to international citizens and diplomats who have interacted with targeted departments.
The documents, and audiovisual data being exfiltrated by the group is massive. The files include everything from:
- Email dumps including visa applications and scans of passports belonging to citizens and diplomats from various countries, such as China, Australia, Czech Republic, France, Israel, Netherlands, UK, and USA
- A seating plan for the meeting between former US Ambassador to the United Nations Bill Richardson and Myanmar’s leader, Senior Gen. Min Aung Hlaing
- Myanmar’s constitution with proposed changes
- Invitations for diplomatic meetings, meeting programs, calls, and talking points
- Reports, maps, and screenshots from the Signal messaging app related to the UWSA (United Wa State Army)
- Data from the Office of the Chief of Myanmar Air Defense Force, including meeting minutes, full staff/rank lists, photo IDs (some with fingerprints), salaries, personal details of employees’ families
- Peace treaty documents
- Interrogation reports
- Contracts
- Court hearings
- Town plans
- Contact information for police officers, including their names, addresses, telephone numbers, and salaries
- Transcripts of meetings around politics, and elections
- Meeting minutes and audio recordings of meetings between Myanmar senior officials (Prime minister, Chairman of State Administrative Council) and the President of Tatarstan
- Military buildings drawings, including munitions storage, oil storage and aerial photos of proposed sites
- International banking records and records and transfers from supporters to a refugee group
Ties to known campaigns
Since getting our hands on the distribution point, we have established links between known campaigns already publicly reported and what we have discovered. This gives us clues as to how resourceful the group may be and will also help us assess its modus operandi.
We have found files strongly resembling (or even matching) samples and their relations described in a blogpost by ESET around the Korplug variant dubbed Hodur. The campaign they described was targeting various government organizations in Mongolia, Vietnam, and Myanmar, along with politically-oriented NGOs. This is in alignment with the victimology of the stolen data we have seen on the distribution point. Hodur was attributed to the Mustang Panda group. The related part of the uncovered toolset we analyzed also contained a USB launcher written in Delphi, similar to the one seen accompanying the Hodur variant of Korplug analyzed by ESET. This installer is responsible for firing up the infection chain leading to a variant of Korplug RAT.
Similarly, we’ve found similarities to operations attributed to LuminousMoth both in structure and purpose. For instance, we have seen a very similar structure as the one described in Bitdefender’s research on the LuminousMoth group. Namely, the usage of the same binaries for sideloading, same pattern for exfiltration – using RAR for collection and a sideloaded library for exfiltration via Google Drive. Perhaps the most common pattern was the usage of a USB launcher written in Delphi that was attributed to Mustang Panda, which was also described in Bitdefender’s research.
In some cases, we have seen some unreliable links to older campaigns such as Operation NightScout, a rather old KMPlayer supply-chain attack, or Operation Harvest. Namely, binaries used for sideloading or names of encrypted payloads matched the ones used in these old campaigns. Nevertheless, the specific payloads differ significantly, so while some of these were attributed to Mustang Panda, the similarity could also be coincidental.
Toolset overview
The storage we have discovered contains many archives with various tools to be downloaded by infected victims. We will use names of these archives to impose basic structure on the data we have found. It is worth noting that these names are partially consistent in successive versions. For instance, we have found an archive KKL which was later on accompanied by another version with a slightly different configuration called KKL1.
Some archives contained complete toolsets, whereas others only had single purpose tools in them that were meant to be used in connection with other tools; for instance, one contained a keylogger that obviously lacked any exfiltration functionality. This provides a strong indication that the tools are intended to be used modularly. We will build upon that and first talk about the usual Mustang Panda theme – Korplug. Then we’ll get to the more specific tools and end with the single purpose tools. Notably, nearly all the tools, aside from Korplug, its loaders, and Delphi installers, haven’t been described before. The RAT written in Go (JSX) or the modular backdoor (US_2) deserve an extra mention due to their complexity
From the data we have seen, we conjecture that the main exfiltration tools are variants of tools contained in archives named GDU, which use Google Drive for the exfiltration. Since we haven’t seen any exfiltration tool that uses the distribution point directly and the path on the server of exfiltrated files contains gd, we presume that the responsible group uses some other tools to move files from various Google Drives to the distribution point we saw.
A brief look at the toolsets brings up another interesting fact: almost all the files show approximately (up to a few cases within seconds) a seven or eight hour offset between the compilation timestamp and the “last modified” timestamp of the file itself. Since the compilation timestamp is usually in UTC and the archives use the local time for the contents’ last modification date, this places us at UTC-8 and UTC-7. Therefore, we presume that the build setup operated in a time resembling Pacific Standard Time (PST) and Pacific Daylight Time (PDT), used on the West Coast of the United States. There are a few caveats – SE3 and SE4 contain files that were compiled on November 1, 2021 and still have an eight hour offset even though none of the countries using PST/PDT transitions to PST that early (both USA and Canada transition to PST a few days later).
There is also a file with an obviously spoofed compilation timestamp. HT3 contains a DLL Vender.dll whose compilation timestamp dates more than a month after the last modification date. This further weakens hypotheses that build upon timestamp offsets. Unfortunately, we have no further leads explaining this outlier. The latest version of the uploader (multiUpload.exe), whose usage was spotted at the beginning of June, has a compilation timestamp of January 3, 2020. This is also very likely spoofed as analyses of the previous versions of this tool show clear evolution and, according to their respective timestamps, they were all compiled in April 2021. Not to mention that the corresponding infrastructure was only created at the end of May 2022.
The folder /pub/god, which contained the toolset archives, was removed on June 25, 2022. On the same day, a new folder /pub/god1 was created with two files to which we didn’t have read access. Two days later, the new folder was gone and /pub/god appeared again with a subset of the original tools.
Variations on Korplug
The first group of tools that we’ll introduce are various versions of Korplug. The binaries used for side-loading were already seen before. Even though the loaders were mostly new, they were rather uninteresting. A common theme was a Delphi binary that served as a launcher to be executed from an infected USB drive. As we’ve already mentioned, a similar installer was previously seen in campaigns attributed to Mustang Panda. It just executes the Korplug loader from a folder named “Kaspersky” that is on the very same USB drive. See the diagram below (based on a toolset from an archive named BMD) for more details.
Note the usage of the folder name “Kaspersky” and usage of “Symantec” in the names of the executables; since the launcher relies on social engineering tricks, it depends on a common strategy using seemingly legitimate file names to dispel any doubts concerning the content.
There were also simpler infection chains, containing just a signed clean binary, a loader to be side-loaded, and an encrypted Korplug. These were contained in archives WD, 127C, and 1260M. The latter interestingly used the OleView.exe binary which then side-loaded the ACLUI.dll that decrypted and executed ACLUI.DLL.UI. The same signed binary, which surprisingly also has the same name of the encrypted payload, was used in the KMPlayer supply-chain attack in 2013. The accompanying research was only published in Chinese, likely due to the attack being limited to a few devices.
Exfiltration toolset
The exfiltrated data on the server in /pub/gd folder showed perfect correlation to the data produced by GDU toolsets (GDU_OLD, GDU, GDU1, GDU2, GDU1_NEW, GDU3, GDUPIZ). These tools collect the files on the victim’s disk, pack them into an archive whose name is prefixed with the victim’s ID and upload that archive onto a Google Drive. We presume that the name GDU is an acronym for Google Drive Uploader. While the tools themselves were technically rather simple, the exfiltration process and their evolution piqued our interest.
The analysis of the exfiltration process brought up several interesting observations. A few days after May 24, 2022, the day we started systematically monitoring Google Drives used for the exfiltration, we started to see more frequent token changes and new features being implemented. These features mitigated possible downtime caused by the migration to a new token. Since Google Drive has extensive logging functionality and the tokens have to be present on the infected devices, it is only a reasonable expectation that access to these drives is monitored to some extent.
On the contrary, we have not seen such behavior with the distribution point. This could be attributed to the fact that the distribution point is never exposed by the toolsets, which brings us to the assessment that the group presumes the distribution point to be secret or not worth monitoring.
Version overview
The oldest version GDU uses RAR executable to collect the data and an encrypted rar.dat to store parameters for the RAR binary. Starting from GDU_OLD, they migrated to their own collector piz.exe (this functionality was later moved to a DLL to be side-loaded) and retained an encrypted rar.dat where they stored their configuration. These toolsets also rely on two optional configuration files that are backed up by hard-coded values: token.dat containing an encrypted token for Google Drive and time.ini that contains last execution date along with the victim’s ID. The setup and the choice of binaries for side-loading bears resemblance to the LuminousMoth campaigns and tooling.
The exfiltration process is usually handled by a variant of MyUpload.dll that is supplemented by the aforementioned configuration files. Quite recently, a new version of GDU1 has appeared on the distribution point (which we’ll call GDU1_NEW) which came with its successor multiUpload.exe. multiupload.exe eschews hard-coded tokens and makes the exfiltration process more resilient to disruptions.
The version we are calling GDU_OLD is basically the same as GDU1 and GDUPIZ, the most significant difference being a different PE being used for side-loading. GDU1 and GDUPIZ rely on CefSub.exe and subsequently on CefBrowser.dll instead of AtlTracetool.exe. GDUPIZ also uses a slightly different approach to execute the file collection tool piz.exe – the version included in this folder is in fact a renamed clean binary spoololk.exe which in turn side-loads vntfxf32.dll. This malicious binary implements the file-collecting functionality formerly contained in piz.exe. GDU2 is basically the same as GDUPIZ.
On June 8, 2022, we saw a new GDU1 toolset on the distribution point. This time MyUpload.dll has been upgraded to provide redundancy in the exfiltration process. It no longer uses token.dat but rather uses a Github repository as its source for the token. If this fails, there are two backups – one using HTTP PUT to www.watercaltropinfo[.]com with Basic HTTP Authorization (123:123). The other sends the data via HTTPS POST to m.watercaltropinfo[.]com. The collector is the same as in GDUPIZ. GDU3 uses basically the same process but uses different PE for side-loading (FwcMgmt.exe).
Tokens
A special chapter is devoted to Google Account tokens that are used in these tools, partially because our research may have forced the group’s hand to refresh the tokens once they discovered that we knew of their Google Drives. The fact that after each token decommission, every client had to have the token updated and that GDU toolsets do not have any remote update functionality suggests that these toolsets have to be accompanied by other tools that provide this update functionality. We have noticed a longer delay between the decommissioning of the token from May 29, 2022 and before a replacement token was being distributed. Its distribution coincides with the time a new version of GDU1_NEW was released. It’s exactly this version that has introduced new functionality in the exfiltration tool, namely smoother token swapping and failsaves for cases when Google Drive exfiltration fails. Therefore, we presume that this delay was caused by the development of this new functionality.

Temporal analysis of exfiltrated data
We can also have a look at the metadata of the exfiltrated archives. What is rather unsurprising are the upload times which closely coincide with Burmese business hours – a smaller peak in the morning and a huge peak in the afternoon. Note that Myanmar is in UTC+6:30 time zone and China, presumed land of origin of Mustang Panda, is in UTC+8.
What is more interesting are events produced by the group itself – transfers from Google Drive onto the distribution point and deletion of files from the distribution point. The huge peak is around 18:00 MM time which coincides with the end of the work day in Myanmar. The spread of starts of upload windows is negligible, leading us to the presumption that the transfer is automated. We have seen a few archives being placed in the wrong directories which could indicate that the tooling is still under development or there’s still some manual work involved… Usually, the files have accumulated during the day on Google Drive and were transferred to the distribution point in the evening MM time.
As we already mentioned in the introduction of uncovered tools, we have found quite a lot of files that were “missing” something. By that we mean that on their own, they were either lacking communication functionality or implemented some techniques that were useless without being accompanied by another payload. Interestingly, while these were also using side-loading, they were not relying on external encrypted files, making their execution flow straightforward with 2-point graphs. For the sake of brevity, we will list these in a table:
| Archive | Clean executable | SideLoaded DLL | Purpose (high-level) |
| MG/MG44 | dabs.ex/44.ex | SensorAware.dll | fingerprinting/remote shell |
| AUD | mcsync.ex | mcaltlib.dll | audio recording |
| CHR | browser.ex | browser_elf.dll | Cookie dumping |
| T3YK | ygfdt.exe | corecrl.dll | remote shell |
| UC | melt_64.exe | libmlt-6.dll | UAC bypass |
| KKL/KKL1 | mscorsvw.exe | mscorsvc.dll (contains KBE.dll) | clipboard stealer, keylogger |
There are also a few standalone files such as x.ex in archive X which composes logs of registry entries (Run), services, and scheduled tasks along with checking all signatures of executable files in %WINDIR%. Archive NB contains nb.dat which is just the nbstat utility executable. There was also a coinminer in the archive INFO along with its encrypted configuration file.
An interesting utility is DISK2 (and its variant DISKM); it is responsible for monitoring the system drive for any changes. Both are accompanied by a configuration file that defines which files are of interest and where such files should be copied to. It also notifies its C&C server about these files via an encrypted message over HTTP. There is also a version of this tool named MF20211228 that does not contain any configuration file and does not copy files anywhere, it just sends messages to the C&C server.
Oddballs in the collection
JSX
JSX archives (JSX86 and newer JSX861 for 32 bit version and JSX64 and newer JSX641 for 64 bit version) deserve a separate mention as they use a rather uncommon setup; a JavaScript file is at the beginning of the chain and instead of side-loading, the respective DLL is launched as a service. mozload.dll is a RAT written in Go that uses HTTPS and websockets for its communication. Interestingly, the RAT uses TLS Client Authentication; see Appendix A.1 and Appendix A.2 for the private key and the certificate.
HT3
HT3 simply does not fall into any of the previous categories – it is a backdoor with external configuration accompanied with a shellcode loader and UAC bypass.
SE
Now we are finally getting to a more complex setup. These archives include several versions with very similar structures and sometimes with varying payloads. Functional changes are presented below; note that these do not include changes in side-loading which will be discussed later on. All versions feature a few evasion tricks that use registry tricks to hide files and file extensions.
| Version | Version changes |
| SE1 | Uses volume name for USB installer executable |
| SE3/SE4/SSE | Uses Delphi launcher (the one attributed to Mustang Panda), persistence integrated into LPVDPOCX.OCX (equivalent of facesdk.dll from SE1) |
| SE5 | Uses volume name for USB installer executable, rollbacks to old USB installer |
| SE6 | No significant functional changes |
| SE7 | No significant functional changes |
SE3 and therefore also SE4 and SSE (which are mostly the same) use vivaldi.exe and vivaldi_elf.dll for its evasion module. Also, FacialFeatureDemo.exe and facesdk.dll are replaced by Symantecs.exe and LDVPOCX.OCX; the latter integrating persistence into itself instead of having it in a separate module. Interestingly, the USB installer has been replaced with one similar to the one in the archive BMK; a Delphi launcher that executes Symantec.cmd which is actually Symantecs.exe. These versions are also the only ones that have renamed 3 of 4 payload bundles (using csdkset.dat for backdoor, EdrEpmpCStorages.dat for USB installer, and PchEpmpCStorages.dat with WTSAPI32.dll). Confusingly, WTSAPI32.dll does not seem to be used anywhere and will be used for side-loading by later versions when the USB installer replacement is roll-backed.
SE6 and SE7 abuse old Avast’s proxy executable wsc_proxy.exe to side-load wsc.dll which serves as the dispatcher. Aside from this change, there are no other significant changes to the functionality.
U5_2
The last complex toolset that we will present is from the archive U5_2. Most of the functional code is encrypted and bundled in AtiVir.csc. With the exception of a chain to a removable drive watcher, all the parts share similar XOR keys: user_panda_%section_name%; a rather interesting choice if the toolset really belongs to Mustang Panda.
An interesting part of the toolset is a file install_.exe that reads a file from a given path, takes the serial number of the volume where the file is located, computes MD5 hash from the serial number and changes the first bytes of the file to the hex-encoded computed hash value.
Server infrastructure
The distribution point is an FTP server located in Malaysia that is accessible without a password (username anonymous, password is empty). We have also encountered a different FTP server in late 2020 containing very similar archives to the ones we now know contain exfiltrated data. Unfortunately, we did not have enough information to process the archives it contained. We presume that these two FTP servers were closely related or that even the current FTP server may be successor of the one we found previously.
We have noticed that the FTP server has stopped responding in October. Fortunately, the server itself was still alive and the distribution has migrated to using HTTP instead of FTP. They also started using HTTP Authorization; nevertheless, they have reused a weak username:password combination (123:123). This has caused a downtime of a few days in our tracking, but with a quick fix, we’ve managed to get back on track. Presumably, this might have been another attempt to foil our tracking attempts.
Our telemetry data also revealed another server in Russia. A client from Myanmar tried to download an archive XYZ from it via HTTP. Upon further inspection, the archive was found to be identical to XYZ from the aforementioned FTP server. We have tried to crawl the server for archives and files we have already seen on the FTP server and found the following toolsets:
| Archive on the HTTP server | Matching archive on the FTP | Note |
| gdupiz.rar | GDU | Retrieved from our telemetry |
| xcrs.exe | X | Discovered by crawling |
| jsx861.rar | JSX861 | Discovered by crawling |
The fact that the affected client is from Myanmar, and the fact that the server contains some parts of the described toolset strongly indicates that it is part of the same campaign. Nevertheless, since at least one archive was renamed, we were unable to fully enumerate its contents. Similarly, we were not able to verify whether the server contains exfiltrated data.
C&C infrastructure
JSX RAT
The JSX RAT attempts to communicate with 103.169.90[.]132 using TLS client authentication. The certificate (see Appendix A.2) is hard-coded and we can try to use it to confirm related infrastructure. Looking at the server certificate data, we see that it imitates a real hosting company.
Common name: blue.net
City, country: San Francisco, CA, US
Fingerprint (sha1): e0adf667e287b0051988dda2b85e7541d7532703
Self-signed
Interestingly, the C&C’s certificate had the exact same subject as the client certificate. Searching for other servers that use the same certificate yielded a couple more servers. Furthermore, we were able to confirm that the majority of these servers are running the same C&C software because they accept the RAT’s hard-coded client certificate.
A server at 118.31.166[.]5 seems to be an outlier among these servers with port 4433 being exposed. Since it is the oldest one using the same certificate and the server exhibits the same communication traits on that port, we suspect that it might be a development server.
Two of these servers were open to RDP connections with a certificate that had o9c[.]pg as its CN (Common name). We tried to go further using these certificates to uncover further candidates for C&Cs. The timeline of uncovered servers is below:
These are servers using the same certificate:

Conclusion
It is not very often we stumble upon such a stash of samples that is used to distribute malware to infected devices; especially when we are talking about tools that are strongly correlated with a notorious APT group. We have shown links to multiple previously published research around campaigns both using tools and TTPs, providing us with high confidence that the threat actor in question is Mustang Panda.
The exfiltrated data indicates that the toolsets that we have found were actively used around Myanmar. For instance, we have found audio recordings that corresponded to the audio recording tools we have identified in the archive named AUD. Although many tools were simplistic in their nature and sometimes also in chosen obfuscation methods, some archives contained tools which seem to deserve further analysis; be it due to their complexity or technical implementation.
What was really surprising was the sheer scale of the compromitation. We have identified many high-profile government targets, some opposition entities along with a few NGOs. It is worth noting that given the sheer volume of data and the language barrier, we have only been able to associate some of the victims with a specific organization. This means that the list of targets is likely incomplete and should be considered as approximate. Nevertheless, the daily rate of gigabytes of exfiltrated data should be enough to give a strong hint on the scale of the operation.
