GOGITTER is a lightweight 64-bit Golang-based downloader used in the Gopher Strike cyberespionage campaign against Indian government entities. The campaign was assessed with medium confidence as Pakistan-linked and exhibits tradecraft similarities to Transparent Tribe (APT36), although attribution to that group is not established. GOGITTER is delivered through spearphishing PDF lures posing as an Adobe Acrobat update; victim interaction leads to an ISO payload, with delivery restricted to apparent Indian Windows systems. After execution, GOGITTER installs a VBScript-based command-polling component and establishes scheduled-task persistence. It retrieves and extracts additional payloads from private GitHub repositories, including the GITSHELLPAD Golang backdoor. The broader intrusion chain uses follow-on tooling for reconnaissance, command execution, archive retrieval, and deployment of Cobalt Strike.
