Static configuration recovery, 2026-10-24 America/New_York. Verified SHA-256 of archived 99,588-byte x86 PIE ELF; MalwareBazaar first_seen is 2026-10-19 12:01:04 UTC. Immediate stores at 0x3cb-0x410 build minecraftsmp14.duckdns.org in writable memory, explaining why the full hostname is absent from ordinary strings output. The domain pointer reaches resolver 0x3da0 through call 0x582. Code pushes 0x15b3 at 0x61a, calls the byte-swap helper 0xed01 and stores the result in sockaddr.sin_port at 0x626; this establishes TCP port 5555. Socket creation uses AF_INET/SOCK_STREAM, and 0x64a reaches connect wrapper 0xea70 (i386 syscall 362, with socketcall fallback). Google and Cloudflare public DNS both returned 91.92.43.221 during this review; this is time-specific DNS mapping, not proof of a live bot session. The domain is already present in ThreatFox under Dense, IOC 1983164, so it was not resubmitted. The compiled Iranbot-Ultimate-V1 marker and existing upstream Gafgyt/Mirai labels should be kept distinct from an independently proven family attribution. No execution or C2 TCP contact.
