Challenge Information
Download the malicious file
The challenge description guides you to visit the website hxxp://relicmaps.one/relicmaps.one. This URL obviously doesn’t work. So you have to replace the domain name with the Docker container’s IP address and port. The URL should look something like this: hxxp://165.232.108.240:32478/relicmaps.one. When visiting this website, the file relicmaps.one will be downloaded automatically.
Analyze file relicmaps.one
The file extension .one implies that this is a file created in Microsoft OneNote. You can view the file using OneNote or this website. If the target clicks the blue button inside the document, he is asked if he wants to run one of the scripts behind it. This is a common technique used for malicious OneNote documents. Instead of clicking the button you can download these files by right-clicking them. Alternatively if you can’t open the document, just use strings relicmaps.one and it will show you the source code of the files.

The source code presents you with two files that are downloaded from a URL and executed on the target. So the next step is to check out what these files are and if they are dangerous.
Analyze file topsecret-maps.one
Use strings to read the source code. You will find following function:

This looks very similar to the stuff we found in relicmaps.one, visit the URLs using a tool like url2png. You will recognize a 404 - Not Found message popping up. So we can ignore these for now and jump to the other file.
Analyze file window.bat
The content of window.bat looked like an obfuscated Batch script. So I tried to deobfuscate it. This tool has been very helpful for me. The output should look similar to this:

You can see that this script copies PowerShell version 1.0 to some unknown directory. But it is not obvious if it is used. The second last line looked like a PowerShell script to me, so I tried to format and understand it. It confused me that all semicolons and commas were missing. Also some syntax errors appeared. So I thought maybe the deobfuscater messed some things up. I knew that Batch scripts show the executed command by default when being executed. To execute the malware a sandbox would be the best option. But because this is a challenge from HTB and I don’t know a free Windows sandbox, I ran it inside a Windows VM. Not the safest solution, but it worked. The command line prompted me the original command.

The PowerShell code searches for the first comment in the window.bat file. The data from this comment is a GZIP archive that has been AES encrypted and base64 encoded. Because we found the AES key and the iv, we are capable of doing the same steps as the PowerShell command. For that, I used CyberChef. It looks like there is an executable file inside the GZIP archive. I downloaded with the name virus.exe from CyberChef to analyze it.
