The obvious joke here is CS runs the malicious C2 framework. So the system worked as designed: it prevented further execution and quarantined the affected machines.
But given they say that’s just a configuration file (then why the hell is it suffixed with .sys?), it’s actually plausible. A smart attacker could disguise themselves and use the same facilities as the CS. CS will try to block them and blocks itself in the process?
