Hardware-Assisted Malware Detection (HMD) techniques deploy Machine Learning (ML) classifiers to detect patterns of malicious applications based on microarchitectural features captured by modern microprocessors' Hardware Performance Counters (HPCs). Existing HMD methods have limited their analysis on detecting malicious applications that are spawned as a separate thread during application execution, hence detecting embedded malware patterns at run-time still remains an important challenge. Embedded malware refers to harmful stealthy cyber attacks in which the malicious code is hidden within benign applications and remains undetected by traditional malware detection approaches. In HMD methods, when the HPC data is directly fed into a machine learning classifier, embedding malicious code inside the benign applications leads to contamination of HPC information, as the collected HPC features combine benign and malware microarchitectural events together. To address this challenge, in this paper we propose StealthMiner, a specialized time series machine learning approach to accurately detect embedded malware at run-time using branch instructions feature, the most prominent microarchitectural feature. The results indicate that StealthMiner can detect embedded malware at run-time with 94% detection performance on average with only one HPC feature, outperforming the detection performance of state-of-the-art HMD methods by 42%.
