LLM-Powered MalTerminal Malware Uses OpenAI GPT-4 to Create Ransomware Code
LLM-enabled malware poses new challenges for detection and threat hunting as malicious logic can be generated at runtime rather than embedded in code. Our research discovered hitherto unknown samples, and what may be the earliest example known to date of an LLM-enabled malware we dubbed “MalTerminal.” Our methodology also uncovered other offensive LLM applications, including…
