Analyst notes

EagleSpy RAT (provisional). EagleSpy RAT (provisional) is a commercial Android remote-access trojan (EagleSpy, sold on underground forums) whose builds are repackaged onto a trojanized Telegram client (Telegram TLRPC/MessagesController classes are present). It provides VNC/screen control, keylogging, SMS/call-log theft, contact theft, overlay credential-phishing and 2FA interception.

Delivery

  • A thin installer (com.appd.instll.load, label “Blockchain”, REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES) bundles a plaintext assets/childapp.apk and installs it. The child is the EagleSpy payload (com.geology.costumes).

C2 (binary-verified, source-to-sink)

  • Raw TCP socket. Host/port are base64 static fields initializeService.ClientHost / ClientPort, base64-decoded by utilities.tdhthoio...w45 and dialed in SecondarySocket: new Socket(InetAddress.getByName(host), port) -> sendBytes(...).
  • Build marker initializeService.ConnectionKey = base64("RWFnbGVTcHk=") = "EagleSpy".

Family label provisional. Indicators: tcp://38.180.53.223:7773.

About EagleSpy RAT (provisional)

**EagleSpy RAT (provisional)** is a commercial Android remote-access trojan (EagleSpy, sold on underground forums) whose builds are repackaged onto a trojanized Telegram client (Telegram `TLRPC`/`MessagesController` classes are present).

The child is the EagleSpy payload (`com.geology.costumes`). **C2 (binary-verified, source-to-sink)** - Raw TCP socket. Host/port are base64 static fields `initializeService.ClientHost` / `ClientPort`, base64-decoded by `utilities.tdhthoio...w45` and dialed in `SecondarySocket`: `new Socket(InetAddress.getByName(host), port)` -> `sendBytes(...)`. - Build marker `initializeService.ConnectionKey = base64("RWFnbGVTcHk=") = "EagleSpy"`.
