pngdowner is malware used by Putter Panda. It is a simple tool with limited functionality and no persistence mechanism, suggesting it is used only as a simple "download-and-
execute" utility.
| Technique | Procedure example |
|---|---|
| T1070.004 File Deletion |
pngdowner deletes content from C2 communications that was saved to the user's temporary directory. |
| T1071.001 Web Protocols |
pngdowner uses HTTP for command and control. |
| T1552.001 Credentials In Files |
If an initial connectivity check fails, pngdowner attempts to extract proxy details and credentials from Windows Protected Storage and from the IE Credentials Store. This allows the adversary to use the proxy credentials for subsequent requests if they enable outbound HTTP access. |
