GhostKatz is a publicly referenced credential-access tool described in the GitHub repository "RainbowDynamix/GhostKatz." It is designed to dump the Windows LSASS process by using physical memory read primitives exposed through vulnerable kernel drivers. This indicates a post-exploitation capability for extracting credentials directly from memory on Windows systems, potentially bypassing some user-mode protections by abusing kernel-level weaknesses. The provided content does not identify specific vulnerable drivers, CVEs, delivery or infection vectors, associated threat actors, targeted industries, or in-the-wild campaigns. The high-confidence behavior directly stated is LSASS dumping via physical memory reads using vulnerable kernel drivers.
