Remus Malware Firefox Artifact Cluster
This YARA rule detects the presence of a credential stealer by identifying a cluster of file names commonly associated with Firefox profile data. The rule specifically looks for at least five out of seven distinct file names: 'key4.db', 'cert9.db', 'cookies.sqlite', 'logins.json', 'formhistory.sqlite', 'places.sqlite', and 'prefs.js'. These files are critical components of a Firefox profile, storing sensitive information such as encryption keys, certificates, cookies, login credentials, browsing history, and user preferences. The co-occurrence of these file names within a scanned target suggests an attempt to access, exfiltrate, or manipulate Firefox user data, often indicative of malware like credential stealers.
