The report describes a Python script that silently installs and reconfigures AnyDesk on Windows and Linux to enable unattended remote access (by adding or overwriting ad.anynet.* settings), restarts the service, and exfiltrates victim details to a C2 at 95.164.17.24:1224. The sample (an5.py) has a low VT detection and demonstrates a practical RAT deployment technique using legitimate remote-administration software.
