When setting up automated atomic tests for local DLL execution via odbcconf, test frameworks require specifying payload dependencies. What file name is standardly used for the test target DLL dependency in Atomic Red Team T1218.008?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |

Adversaries may abuse odbcconf.exe to proxy execution of malicious payloads. Odbcconf.exe is a Windows utility that allows you to configure Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) drivers and data source names. The Odbcconf.exe binary may be digitally signed by Microsoft.
Adversaries may abuse odbcconf.exe to bypass application control solutions that do not account for its potential abuse. Similar to Regsvr32, odbcconf.exe has a REGSVR flag that can be misused to execute DLLs (ex: odbcconf.exe /S /A {REGSVR "C:\Users\Public\file.dll"}).
Platforms: Windows
The following tests are from Atomic Red Team and provide actionable ways to test this technique:
Execute arbitrary DLL file stored locally.
Supported Platforms: windows
odbcconf.exe /S /A {REGSVR "#{dll_payload}"}
Dependencies:
