show moreSSH login attempts used hadoop/hadoop and ubuntu/Ubuntu@1234 from an SSH-2.0-Go client. After access, the session enumerated the host with uname -a, /proc/cpuinfo, and ps commands, then searched for competing processes named astats and kstats. It wrote and dropped files in /dev/shm, including w.sh and kstats, and used cat > to place content into those files. Persistence was set with crontab by adding an @reboot entry to run /dev/shm/w.sh with arguments "astats" "netai" "kstats" "ssh 2 az". A user systemd service was also created at ~/.config/systemd/user/watcher-netai.service, followed by systemctl --user daemon-reload and enable --now. No lateral movement or downloads were observed in these sessions.
