Relations

Values this address shares with other hosts in this archive, rarest first. A shared value says the hosts were set up alike, not that one operator runs them.

SharedValueOther hosts
vkey = saltaiaiaiaiaiaigood1 other host · 1 listed

Not a pivot:

  • salt qwe123qwe
  • vkey qwe123qwe

A value marked shared recurs in configurations across more than three unrelated networks. It is not evidence of a single operator.

  • first seen to last confirmed
  • listed after its last confirmation

A marked day is a UTC day the feed listed this address. The feed keeps a listener for up to 90 days after its last confirmation, so a listed day is not a confirmation. A listener no longer in the feed is drawn to its last confirmation.

Samples served · 12 files

Files this address was seen serving, each identified by running or analysing it. A widely distributed file can reach unrelated hosts.

These files are configured to connect to this address: 4 files on :80, 4 files on :443, 4 files on :8080. A file naming two ports counts under each.

Clustering values from these files’ configurations. A value marked shared recurs in configurations across more than three unrelated networks. It is not evidence of a single operator.

vkey = salt · sharedqwe123qwe · 2 files
vkey = saltaiaiaiaiaiaigood · 1 file

Other hosts that served files with the same value. A shared value is not evidence of a single operator.

9 of the 12 files are VShell loaders whose configuration was read from the file. A VShell loader’s only configuration is the address and port it calls. The listener key (vkey) and the salt arrive from the listener when the loader connects, so only sandbox runs that reached a live listener show them.
