Multi AV Scanner detection for submitted file
Benign windows process drops PE files
Malicious sample detected (through community Yara rule)
Yara detected SmokeLoader
System process connects to network (likely due to code injection or exploit)
Detected unpacking (changes PE section rights)
Antivirus detection for URL or domain
Maps a DLL or memory area into another process
Found evasive API chain (may stop execution after checking mutex)
Writes to foreign memory regions
Checks if browser processes are running
Machine Learning detection for sample
Checks for kernel code integrity (NtQuerySystemInformation(CodeIntegrityInformation))
Injects code into the Windows Explorer (explorer.exe)
Deletes itself after installation
Machine Learning detection for dropped file
C2 URLs / IPs found in malware configuration
Creates a thread in another existing process (thread injection)

Contains functionality to compare user and computer (likely to detect sandboxes)
Checks if the current machine is a virtual machine (disk enumeration)
Uses 32bit PE files

Internet Provider seen in connection with other malware
Detected potential crypto function
Contains functionality to query CPU information (cpuid)
Found potential string decryption / allocating functions
Sample execution stops while process was sleeping (likely an evasion)
