Pony Builder v1.9 – Credential-stealing Trojan builder
Pony Builder v1.9 is a leaked malware-building tool associated with the Pony Trojan, a credential-stealing program widely used by cybercriminals. The builder allows attackers to generate custom Trojan binaries that harvest sensitive information such as saved passwords, FTP credentials, and cryptocurrency wallets.
Once deployed on a victim’s system, the generated Trojan transmits stolen data back to an attacker-controlled command-and-control (C2) server, typically specified in the builder’s configuration. Pony became infamous due to its use in large credential theft campaigns and the sale of stolen login data on underground forums.
Key Features:
- Builds custom Pony Trojan binaries for attackers
- Steals stored passwords, FTP/SFTP logins, and cryptocurrency wallets
- Sends stolen information to a specified C2 “gate” URL
- Supports loader functions for additional malware delivery
- Allows attackers to customize stub behavior and appearance
Defensive Notes:
- Monitor systems for unauthorized outbound connections to suspicious domains or PHP-based C2 panels
- Use advanced endpoint protection capable of detecting Pony-based binaries
- Educate users on the risks of opening unverified files or cracked software, common delivery methods for Pony
- Employ intrusion detection systems (IDS) to spot data exfiltration attempts to C2 servers
