There's another scam using the same github technique, the "LHR-pill"

Nice catch on that , and thanks for keeping your eyes open about that !

There's another scam using the same github technique, the "LHR-pill"

Current example until the post is deleted:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--5361294

A copy of it with links sanitized:

Quote
Glad to see you new crypto software LHR-pill .
Now unlock up to 100% of the Ethereum mining performance of Nvidia�s Lite Hash Rate (LHR) series

In what could be bad news for anyone in the market for a new graphics card, as far as the changelog from the latest version of the NBMiner crypto currency mining software is concerned, the tool is now capable of unlocking up to 70% of the original GPU mining performance of the Nvidia Lite Hash rate series of GPUs for mining Ethereum

But our software will completely solve this problem. It is by far the best solution to the problem of LHR GPU's. The software does not lower and increases power consumption every second. therefore it is safe for your graphics cards. Work with Win7, Win10 (Not HiveOs,RaveOS and etc)

Download:
https colon slash slash github dot com slash LHR-Pill slash LHR-DEVsoftware slash releasesslash download slash lhrslash LHR-Pill.zip

How to use:

https colon slash slash i.imgur dot com slash Ww88c12.png

Run LHR-pill.exe
Wait when software detected yours GPU's
When you see message "worked" you can minimize window and start your miner

PhoenixMiner

Since he has been allegedly hacked the best thing to do would be to direct him to this thread so he would send us an email.
Thanks and i have written that he should be sending the Recovery Team an email to the email adress from theymos thread about Hacked Accounts.
Also i have written that he should write in this Thread here when his Account is fully back in his hands and recovered , so i can remove my Feedback i have given back in the days.
And thats why like to write in this Thread for using it as reference , sometimes it helps to get Users there Account back .

If your account was hacked

Email [email protected], ideally from the account's email address. Include your username and a brief description of the details of how/when the account was hacked. A signature will likely be required

From what i can see on the detection list from Virustotal there are a lot of false positive detections !

There is only 1 detection , but anyway the Thread is deleted already now if it is a serious project they will be asking why it was deleted .


Yup this is true.

Normally, I would check the windows wallet only for viruses in virus total. Upon checking it also, it only contained one false-positive result, so I tried downloading the Mac wallet also. To my surprise, it contained 14 detections (most are false-positive) but the fact that the thread has been deleted and the user just recently awoken, those evidences conclude that the wallet did contain some malware on it.

Thank you for going the extra mile and checking it, Lafu!

You only checked the Wallet for MAC and this Wallet has miner integrated.

But since the User just woked up and posted this Thread and wallet its possible that there is something wrong with the Wallet.

Thats the result for Windows Wallet : https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/d080cfcf83b55b56050793946f2b16d9bd7ac5479eac834fcd4e64bc85245a18/detection

They also seem to be staying up much longer.
The one below was posted at 09:49:54 AM my time, I reported it at 10:05:28 AM when I saw it.
They never used to stay up for 15 minutes.

Oh well, guess we just have to start being a bit more proactive on this till the reporting bot is fixed.

And after I reported it, it was still up for a while. Guess the mods were on a lunch break.

So the PhoenixMiner malware people are back. Or they have at least changed their posing bot enough to fool the malware reporting bot.
Been seeing these crop up more and more. Here is a quote I added code tags and spaces to so linking would not work.

Bummer as it seems to have calmed down for a while.

The new beta version is finally ready. You can download PhoenixMiner 5.7a from here:

Code:

The new features in this release are:

  • Added lock core clock
  • The problem with the missing GPU temperatures on Nvidia GPUs is fixed
  • Added native kernels for AMD RX6700 GPUs. These are faster than the generic kernels and produce a lot less stale shares
  • Increase the max supported DAG epoch to 550 (should be enough to about Jan 2023)
  • Full support for setting clocks, fan speeds, voltages, and memory timings of AMD RX6900/6800/6700 cards
  • The specific hashrate is now shown in the form of kilo hashes per joule (kH/J). Example: if a GPU has hashrate of 30 MH/s with 100W power usage, the specific hashrate is 300 kH/J
  • Added new command-line parameters -ttj and -ttmem, allowing automatic fan speed control based on GPU hotspot (junction), and memory temperatures respectively. Example: -ttmem 83 will keep the GPU memory temperature at or bellow 83C by increasing the fan speed as necessary. These parameters can be combined with -tt, as well as with each other. These options are supported only on AMD GPUs that report junction and memory temperatures
  • Added new command-line parameters -tmaxj and -tmaxmem, allowing to decrease the GPU usage when the GPU hotspot (junction), or GPU memory temperatures are above the specified thresholds. These options are supported only on AMD GPUs that report junction and memory temperatures
  • Added support for AMD Windows drivers 21.3.2, and 21.3.1
  • Added support for AMD Linux drivers 20.50.x. Use this drivers only if you have Polaris or older GPUs, or the latest RX6x000 GPUs. WARNING: Vega, Radeon VII, and Navi GPUs won't work with these drivers!
  • Turn off the zero fan feature on AMD cards whenever a fixed fan speed is used (e.g. -tt -40), or when an auto fan with min fan speed is used (e.g. -tt 63 -minfan 35). To disable this feature, add -fanstop 1 command-line parameter
  • When -mcdag 1 is specified under Linux, the miner will not wait for the daggen.sh script to finish before starting to generate the DAGs. Instead it will for a fixed 7 seconds. This allows you to do all the following in the daggen.sh: turn off the overclocking of Nvidia GPUs, sleep for 30-60 seconds to allow time for DAG generation, and then re-apply the overclocking of the Nvidia GPUs
  • Other small improvements and fixes

The support for -ttj, -ttmem, -tmaxj, and -tmaxmem for Nvidia 3090 and 3080 GPUs is not yet ready for release. We hope to have it ready for the final 5.7 release.

For more robust integrity check, you can use our GPG public key, which was verifyed with ETH transaction from our main devfee account as explained here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.56755869.

Hi there,
- I used virustotal like you, but it gives me nothing but I'm not really good at detecting malware (https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/bb4245b072d0f06a4c6d88b25770a884201c2fb3918833b92e65a28dff70c6e8/detection).

Am I paranoid ?

Hi Halab thanks for posting here and let us know about that.
The problem why you dont have seen any detection is that you just scanned the URL from Github and normaly this will not detecting anything.
For a real and intensive Scan you have to download the File ( just download and not open the File ) and then you have to upload it to Virustotal.
This mostly detecting Malware or other shady Software.

But looks like your instinct was right , well done !
And you are not paranoid !

Hi there,

I need feedback on a topic created by a newbie in the french (and now spanish) section.

- Account created today who "made a guide to help...".
- He used Google Translate.
- Github created 3 days ago.

The detections look like a miner was detected, which makes sense, because according to their OP the software seems to contain a miner.
It's also visible in their source-code on Github: https_://github.com/armornetworkdev/armor-gui/tree/v0.02/src/Miner (caution! Do not compile or download anything from this repository! It may be harmful).

The client seems to be a fork of Bytecoin. However I just checked a version of Bytecoins Portable client on VirusTotal and there were no detections unlike the "Armor AMX"-client, so caution is advised. Has anyone checked their source more closely for malicious code? Because if they really included malware, a clean antivirus-scan doesn't necessarily mean, that everything is clean.

Yes there was a few Miner Software false positive detections , thats right , but there was also some Malware and Trojan in there.
If its realy a fork from bytecoin there would be not so many detections , and it looks like it was modifyd.
I havnt checked it deeper but the thread got deleted already and i guess for a good reason .
