A successful connection is persistent, meaning that the system automatically restores the connection during subsequent logon operations. An example of malware that implement this function can be found below:

- Original stories can be found on [MS Office Built-In Feature Could be Exploited to Create Self-Replicating Malware](https://thehackernews.com/2017/11/ms-office-macro-malware.html) and [Virus Bulletin June 2001](https://www.virusbulletin.com/uploads/pdf/magazine/2001/200106.pdf)
- The option `Trust access to the VBA project object model`, according to [Office Support](https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Enable-or-disable-macros-in-Office-files-12b036fd-d140-4e74-b45e-16fed1a7e5c6), can be used to allow programmatic access to the VBA object model from an automation client. This option is controlled by registry key available on `HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Security` with `AccessVBOM`, `0` for disable and `1` for enable.

- If there is some application that already in `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run`
- Under `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options`, create a key named by some application and under this key create a `REG_SZ` titled `Debugger` with the value being `C:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.exe`
- Test run with that some application

Meltdown and Spectre exploit critical vulnerabilities in modern processors. These hardware bugs allow programs to steal data which is currently processed on the computer. While programs are typically not permitted to read data from other programs, a malicious program can exploit Meltdown and Spectre to get hold of secrets stored in the memory of other running programs. This might include your passwords stored in a password manager or browser, your personal photos, emails, instant messages and even business-critical documents.
