I hope these fuckers aren't trying to obfuscate the password by abusing javascript scoping

finally unencrypted and re-deobfuscated.

and it's got debugging strings in Turkish!

my head already hurts enough as it is

awfully lot of debugging information printed to console.log by this malware. it really tells you everything it is doing

so it also checks your GPU.

You know, because VMs usually have a GPU like "VMware SVGA 3D"

ahh, naturally the C&C server is cloudflare.

it also fails to run if you have less than 2gb of RAM.

because what regular computer would have less than 2gb of ram in 2025? No one but a VM, that's who

they distribute some of the malware through NPM, fun!

For my next project I'm going to develop The Modern PC.

It's going to be an exact clone of the IBM 5150 PC from 1981, except it'll use 3.3v instead of 5v

So here's a conversation snippet from the rom, which is expressed as 3 c-strings:

"5NeverMind,$How`sThingsFester?"
"4Miserable!"
"5GladToSeeYou`re$EnjoyingYourself!"

proud accomplishments:

* triggered the crash handler in the 1995 Super Nintendo game Addams Family Values

So the digits are used to select different character portraits for that line, and the $ turns into a newline.

But notice the really big weird thing about this text?

NO SPACES!

The game is in all caps.

Here's the reason they don't use spaces, and are WikiWording EveryThing:

THEY'RE ENCODING WHERE THE SPACES ARE INTO IF A LETTER IS CAPITAL OR NOT

This isn't how the memory of the game while running is laid out. They have to decode the ROM contents into the all-uppercase contents, adding spaces along the way

"SoASentenceLikeThis"
turns into:
"SO A SENTENCE LIKE THIS"

but saving AN ENTIRE BYTE of this game's ROM every single time they needed to use a space character, just by only using uppercase for the game?

that's brilliant and stupid in equal measure and I love it.

The game has 9342 bytes of unused space at the end of the 2 megabyte ROM chip it shipped on.

They use this trick 2311 times in the ROM, saving ... 2311 bytes.

NOPE. IT WAS UNNECESSARY!

but here's the fun part: I have this game's entire script here.

and I've already seen that there's a bunch of unused space at the end of the ROM...

So did they even need this trick? I CAN FIND OUT
