XWorm Campaign Expands to Three-Channel C2 Fabric Across Offshore ASNs

Two freshly provisioned VPS nodes under separate offshore corporate registrations and a free DDNS hostname have extended the OC_265108 purchase-order campaign's command-and-control architecture since earlier coverage. The operator pre-allocated both ASN blocks months before the campaign activated, signalling deliberate infrastructure planning rather than reactive provisioning.

Since CTX Team's earlier coverage of this XWorm campaign, two freshly provisioned command-and-control nodes have surfaced in RIPE NCC address space allocated in late 2025 — 158.94.209.22 under ASN 202412 (Omegatech LTD, Seychelles-registered) and 143.20.134.59 under ASN 215703 (Freakhosting Ltd, nominally UK-registered) — alongside a new dynamic DNS endpoint, jar5.ydns.eu, that carries no VirusTotal detection data at all.
