Script Overview

  • GootLoaderAutoJsDecode.py - automatically decodes .js files using static analysis (recommended)
  • GootLoaderAutoJsDecode-Dynamic.py - automatically decodes .js files using dynamic analysis
  • GootLoaderManualJsDecode-Dynamic.py - used to manually decode .js files using dynamic analysis
  • GootloaderRegDecode.py - automatically decodes reg payload exports
  • GootloaderWindowsRegDecode.ps1 - Directly decodes a payload from the registry.

JavaScript Decoding

Automated Decoding

Run the script GootLoaderAutoJsDecode.py against the .js file.

python GootLoaderAutoJsDecode.py "evil.js"

The script will output the files below:

  • FileAndTaskData.txt - Contains the names of the scheduled task and dropped files.
  • DecodedJsPayload.js_ - The decoded payload that runs a PowerShell command. You can use a CyberChef's Generic Code Beautify in order to make the content easier to read.

If the GootLoaderAutoJsDecode.py script stops working then you can attempt to use the dynamic version of the script (GootLoaderAutoJsDecode-Dynamic.py). Be aware that the dynamic script executes part of the GOOTLADER code, as a result it should only be run in an isolated environment.

Manual Decoding

Sometimes the GOOTLOADER js obfuscation changes and the GootLoaderAutoJsDecode.py script stops working. In those instances, follow the instructions found at ManualDecoding.md.

Registry Payload Decoding

Redline

  1. On the left menu go to Agent Events\Registry Key Events
  2. Filter on the following:
    • Change Type: value change
    • Path: HKEY_USERS\<USER_SID>\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Phone\%USERNAME%
      • The specific path might change, but you should end up with two sets of keys, one called ...\Phone\UserName\... and one called ...\Phone\UserName0\....
  3. Select all the rows that have something in the Text Data field.
  4. Right click and select "Copy with Headers"
  5. Paste the text into a text document and save it as a CSV

Decoding the CSV File

  1. Transfer the CSV and Python scripts to the same machine
  2. Run the command below:
python GootloaderRegDecode.py "regExport.csv"
  1. The script should generate 2 files payload1.dll_ and payload2.exe_
