Hi! I need help to determine if js code is malicious or what it really does
Hi comunity ! Im a moderator on a site where ppl can upload apps. We try to keep our apps without any kind of infection but as far my skill set goes, ill need help to determine a js code i did find. Many of our users complained aboute apps from one of our uploaders, they said apps where infected and it was a js code hijacking wscript in taskmanager claming it is a keylogger or some spyware. I have been able to do some reverse engineering on some of his/here apps and ended up with a *.js file from each of his/here uploads that were very similar to each other. It was unreadable/compressed so i decompressed it so got a little more readable but still, i think its encrypted somehow. So this is as far as my skills set goes and i would like to ask any one in this comunity if someone could have a look at the code to see if it has any malicious intend or not? ..and what it really does? Best regards
