XLoader is a challenging malware family that hides its malicious functions under multiple layers of encryption, making analysis slow and difficult for researchers. Generative AI, particularly through tools like ChatGPT, is utilized to automate and accelerate the reverse engineering of XLoader. By employing AI, researchers can rapidly delegate complex decryption tasks, enabling quicker extraction of critical information such as real command and control domains, cryptographic keys, and other key data. Although AI greatly enhances analysis speed and efficiency, human involvement remains essential to tackle advanced protections within the malware. Ultimately, the integration of AI shifts the balance in malware research, suggesting that as malware evolves, so must defense mechanisms.
