Malware: theZoo

About

theZoo is a project created to make the possibility of malware analysis open and available to the public. Since we have found out that almost all versions of malware are very hard to come by in a way which will allow analysis, we have decided to gather all of them for you in an accessible and safe way. theZoo was born by Yuval tisf Nativ and is now maintained by Shahak Shalev. theZoo is open and welcoming visitors! Disclaimer

theZoo's purpose is to allow the study of malware and enable people who are interested in malware analysis (or maybe even as a part of their job) to have access to live malware, analyse the ways they operate, and maybe even enable advanced and savvy people to block specific malware within their own environment.

Please remember that these are live and dangerous malware! They come encrypted and locked for a reason! Do NOT run them unless you are absolutely sure of what you are doing! They are to be used only for educational purposes (and we mean that!) !!!

We recommend running them in a VM which has no internet connection (or an internal virtual network if you must) and without guest additions or any equivalents. Some of them are worms and will automatically try to spread out. Running them unconstrained means that you will infect yourself or others with vicious and dangerous malware!!! GPL 3

theZoo's objective is to offer a fast and easy way of retrieving malware samples and source code in an organized fashion in hopes of promoting malware research. Root Files:

Since version 0.42 theZoo has been undergoing dramatic changes. It now runs in both CLI and ARGVS modes. You can call the program with the same command line arguments as before. The current default state of theZoo runtime is the CLI. The following files and directories are responsible for the application's behaviour. /conf

The conf folder holds files relevant to the particular running of the program but are not part of the application. You can find the EULA file in the conf and more. /imports

Contains .py and .pyc import files used by the rest of the application /malwares/Binaries

The actual malwares samples - be careful! /malware/Source

Malware source code :) Directory Structure:

Each directory is composed of 4 files:

   Malware files in an encrypted ZIP archive.
   SHA256 sum of the 1st file.
   MD5 sum of the 1st file.
   Password file for the archive.

Structure of maldb.db

maldb.db is the DB which theZoo is acting upon to find malware indexed on your drive. The structure is as follows:

uid,location,type,name,version,author,language,date,architecture,platform,comments,tags

   UID - Determined based on the indexing process.
   Location - The location on the drive of the malware you have searched for.
   Type - Sorts the different types of malware there are. So far we sort by: Virus, Trojans, Botnets, Ransomware, Spyware
   Name - Just the name of the malware.
   Version - Nothing to say here as well.
   Author - ... I'm not that into documentation...
   Programming Language - The state of the malware in regard to source, bin, or which type of source. c/cpp/bin...
   Date - See 'Author' section.
   Architecture - The arch the platform was build for. Can be x86, x64, arm7....
   Platform - Win32, Win64, *nix32, *nix64, iOS, android and so on.
   Comments - Any comments there may be about the item.
   Tags - Tags matching the item.

An example line will look as follow:

104,Source/Original/Dexter,trojan,Dexter,2,unknown,c,00/05/2013,x86,win32,NULL,Source

Bugs and Reports

The repository holding all files is currently https://github.com/ytisf/theZoo Submit Malware

Get the file you want to submit and just run python prep_file.py file_tosubmit.exe. It will create a directory for you. Then just submit that along with the changes to the conf/maldb.db so that we know which malware it is
