3 further values in this feed are not shown above, because they are not an indicator type that can be recognised reliably by shape: command names, fingerprints and behavioural patterns among them. They are all in the raw JSON, which remains the complete record.

Do not block

These values came out of this investigation, but blocking them would break something legitimate, whether a shared service, a bystander's infrastructure, or the victim's own equipment. They are listed here because they still matter for hunting, and they are deliberately excluded from the copy and download buttons above.

TypeIndicatorWhy it stays off a blocklist
domain fr[.]bastaniqifi[.]ir Passive DNS (VirusTotal) shows an A record from this name to the case IP, TTL 300, last modified 2026-10-07, inside a set of country-labelled .ir hostnames that all point to different hosts and look like a VPN or proxy node fleet. A scan-history export scoped to the apex domain did not show the record, which neither confirms nor contradicts the passive-DNS result; Whether the workbench operator runs that fleet, rents a node in it or only shares an address with it is not established: LOW as a link to the operator. The directory on :8000 was first seen 2026-09-26. The record's first appearance is not known; its last-modified date is 7 October 2026. The address has had other tenants. Context only, do not block.
