bitdefender-malware-investigation — Claude Code skill: setup
Guides security analysis of a deceptive repository masquerading as an antivirus crack. Ideal for researchers investigating trojan distribution vectors.
npx skills add reason-machines/security-skills --skill bitdefender-malware-investigation -a claude-codeWhat bitdefender-malware-investigation does
The skill outlines steps to inspect MistDuckCount/Bitdefender-Total-Security-Crack-2026. This repository pretends to ship commercial security tools, but shows signs of credential stealers and botnet clients. It flags discrepancies like Windows tools coded in Go or dubious repository topics such as thread hijacking.
The workflow focuses on non-executable inspection. It details checks for obfuscation, process memory manipulation, and direct WinAPI calls such as VirtualAllocEx or CreateProcessW. To minimize exposure, the guide recommends querying the GitHub API and VirusTotal rather than downloading suspicious files directly.
Cloning this code onto your primary workstation is unsafe. All behavioral tests belong exclusively inside an isolated virtual machine or sandbox.
What it helps with
- identify trojan indicators in counterfeit antivirus software
- extract C2 network endpoints using pattern matching
- audit source code for Windows process injection techniques
- compile abuse reports for GitHub and the impersonated software vendor
Example prompts for the agent
- Audit this fake Bitdefender crack repository for trojan delivery mechanisms
- Extract suspicious network indicators and API calls from this Go project
- Draft an abuse report for GitHub regarding a malicious cracking tool
