Rust-based Windows removable-media propagation tool that detects USB, SD, MMC, IEEE 1394, and other external drives, then copies a ZIP containing RUSTYSHADE and a malicious LNK file to their root directories. It maintains per-volume infection tracking and is launched at user logon through a masquerading scheduled task.
