Capemon Skills

capemon is a sophisticated monitoring and instrumentation engine designed for malware analysis, configuration extraction, and payload recovery. It acts as the core injection component for the CAPEv2 sandbox.

Core Capabilities

1. API Hooking & Monitoring

capemon implements an extensive hooking engine derived from cuckoomon-modified, providing deep visibility into application behavior across multiple subsystems:

• Process & Thread Management: Monitoring creation, termination, and manipulation of processes and threads.
• File System Operations: Tracking file creation, deletion, reading, and writing.
• Registry Activity: Capturing configuration changes and persistence mechanisms.
• Network Communication: Intercepting socket operations, DNS queries, and high-level protocol activity (HTTP, etc.).
• Cryptography: Extracting keys and monitoring encryption/decryption routines.
• Synchronization & Services: Monitoring mutexes, events, and Windows Service interactions.
• Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI): Intercepting WMI queries used for anti-analysis or reconnaissance.
• Scripting Engines: Specific hooks for VBScript and other language runtimes.
