show moreBrute-force login used ubuntu/ef@+tj-YUbvcQr-. After login, the host was checked with uname -a, cpu count via /proc/cpuinfo, and running processes with ps -eo pid,pcpu,comm --sort=-pcpu | head -n 10. The attacker searched writable locations with sh -c 'for d in /dev/shm /tmp /var/run /mnt /root /; do cd "$d" 2>/dev/null && pwd && break; done'. They then created /tmp/w.sh, made it executable, and dropped file w.sh (script, 1.4 KB, sha256:bc36e729c6463e7120677c0d59b9d793401b320520201043048577d4d94cee28). Persistence was attempted by reading crontab and adding an @reboot entry to run /tmp/w.sh with arguments "astats" "netai" "kstats" and "ssh 2 az". No additional downloads, lateral movement, or port forwards were observed.

show moreSingle SSH session from SSH-2.0-Go using ubuntu/ef@+tj-YUbvcQr-. Activity focused on dropping and persisting a script in /tmp: checked crontab, searched for an existing @reboot entry invoking /tmp/w.sh with arguments "astats" "netai" "kstats" and "ssh 2 az", and prepared to create /tmp/w.sh then chmod +x it. Also ran host discovery/recon commands: uname -a, CPU count via /proc/cpuinfo, process listing sorted by CPU, and directory selection across /dev/shm, /tmp, /var/run, /mnt, /root, and /. No downloads, file artifacts, port forwards, or lateral movement were observed.
