It also covers the InfoGrab feature, which pulls out cookies, passwords and credit card data, and the startup files the tool creates to stay on a machine. The analysis describes its bypass methods for User Account Control and Windows directory restrictions.

The file hashes of the analyzed sample are listed so teams can match them. An open version of the findings is in the Xeno RAT analysis article; the full report adds the detections and indicators of compromise.
