| Description | (Check Point) WispRider is a side-loaded DLL which contains both the USB infector component and the backdoor itself. It first creates a mutex to ensure there is a single instance running and checks that the executable that side-loaded it was executed with the proper argument. Next, it searches for a configuration file by first identifying a currently running directory from which the executable runs, and then recursively scanning from that directory to check each file as a potential config file candidate. | |
