SilkParasite Infrastructure Links SpiceRAT to Central Asian Targetsnew

Hunt.io linked SpiceRAT, NodeEdgeRAT, and NomadRAT C2 servers to the SilkParasite campaign targeting Central Asian governments since mid-2022.

Hunt.io and researcher Guy Yasur mapped C2 infrastructure tying three of seven RAT families from Bitdefender's SilkParasite report through shared TLS certificates, parent domains, and a cloned RTX Corporation homepage. One certificate spoofing Uzbekistan's state railway was issued by TLC, a CA funded by China's CAICT, and domains impersonate state entities in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan. Passive DNS pushes the campaign back to mid-2022, and the infrastructure overlaps China-nexus activity including FamousSparrow and IndigoZebra.

SilkParasite Hackers Use SpiceRAT Infrastructure to Target Central Asian Governments and Energy Firms

Hunt.io links SpiceRAT C2 infrastructure to the China-nexus SilkParasite espionage cluster targeting Central Asian governments, telecoms, and energy firms.

Hunt.io analysis expanded the SpiceRAT command-and-control footprint tied to SilkParasite, a China-nexus espionage cluster (medium confidence per Bitdefender) targeting government, telecommunications, and energy entities across Central Asia. Five active servers coordinated from mid-March 2026 were clustered via reused hostnames, TLS certificates, and a byte-identical clone of RTX Corporation's webpage found on 13 IPs; a certificate for azure.uzrailwaystax[.]com appeared across eight servers. Domains impersonated Türkmengaz, Tojiktelecom, Turkmenistan's Foreign Ministry, and Uzbek and Kyrgyz bodies, with passive DNS history dating to mid-2022. Impersonated organizations were not confirmed as compromised; Cisco Talos previously linked SpiceRAT to SneakyChef's LNK/HTA infection chains.

SilkParasite-Linked Malware Infrastructure Traced Back Four Years Across Central Asia

Hunt.io links SpiceRAT C2 servers to China-nexus SilkParasite espionage targeting Central Asian governments, with related infrastructure active since 2022.

Hunt.io and researcher Guy Yasur traced a cluster of SpiceRAT command-and-control servers active from late 2025 to August 2026 to infrastructure linked to the China-nexus SilkParasite espionage operation. Shared parent domains, a certificate resembling an Uzbek railway entity, and a cloned RTX Corporation homepage appearing on 13 servers connect SpiceRAT systems to NodeEdgeRAT and NomadRAT infrastructure. Passive DNS records show related subdomains as early as mid-2022, suggesting the infrastructure has existed for at least four years. Hostnames impersonate government, energy and telecom targets across Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan.
