SilkParasite: Tracking a China-Nexus APT Across Central Asia
SilkParasite is a cyberespionage operation assessed with medium confidence as China-nexus that targeted government bodies across Central Asia. Seven remote access tool families were deployed, five of which were previously undocumented: DriveSilkRAT, CookiETagRAT, NomadRAT, GoginRAT, and NodeEdgeRAT. The toolset is small, modular, and professionally engineered with traces of AI-assisted development. Initial access occurred through malicious Microsoft Office documents delivered via spear-phishing, using regionally tailored lures impersonating government ministries. The operation leveraged DLL sideloading as the primary delivery mechanism and used Google Drive for command-and-control communications to hide within trusted services. Infrastructure analysis identified connections to China Unicom's backbone network, and operational patterns suggest a functioning software organization with maintained build pipelines and careful operational security.
