When downloading the AMTEmu, you don’t get the same program – there is an executable file of the trojan virus instead of the offered app.
There is also a much more clumsy but the same effective method. If a user tries to activate the system multiple times, they may end up with new and new viruses. After such manipulation, it becomes effortless to send back a pack of viruses instead of the individual key. However, changing AMTEmu’s configurations to connect to a server controlled by malware distributors is easy. It connects to the Key Management Service and sends one of the leaked activation keys for OEM PC manufacturers, receiving an individual key for the device from the server and completing the activation process. The main reason for the tool’s vulnerability is its core functionality. Consequently, the risk of infection through the utilization of AMTEmu is very high. This introduces a vulnerability that can be exploited by malware distributors, allowing them to inject malware through the application. In order to use AMTEmu, users are typically required to either disable their antivirus software or whitelist the application. Most anti-malware software identifies AMTEmu as a hack tool or crack and takes automatic measures to block it upon detection.
