Trojan.MalPack.TRE
Short bio
Trojan.MalPack.TRE is Malwarebytes' detection name for Trojans that are packed with a specific polymorphic packer.
Type and source of infection
Trojan.MalPack.TRE are Trojans packed with a polymorphic packer, resulting in packed samples that vary in size and structure, which makes them harder to detect. The Trojan.MalPack.TRE detection is based on the way the file is packed, which means the Trojan payload could be anything, but we often see this one realted to Trojan.Emotet.
