Malware Analysis Report - Agent Tesla

Today's Malware Report looks at a stealer that, as recent CERT (Computer Emergency Response Team) reports indicate, has targeted the Italian market. 

We are talking about Agent Tesla, a keylogger and info-stealer malware developed in .NET. It is able to collect credentials from a number of predefined applications and send them to its C&C (Command & Control), via HTTPs, SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) or Telegram channel.  

This malware family strikes through different vectors, such as Office documents, JavaScript or VBS scripts. 

Specifically, our analysis focuses on a recent malicious executable submitted in the public tasks of AnyRun's online sandbox.
