This infection chain would have most likely came from malvertising. Instead of recreating the entire chain I used a compromised site (created on 11/30/2014) that redirects to various RIG EK gates. Below is an image of the traffic being filtered in Wireshark:
Found in page source:
We then see the GET request for dNw3XwZXSc6ysO.js at en.sundayloop.com. The server returns a “301 Moved Permanently” and points to resource scr.php:
scr.php returns the following RIG LPs:
This unknown campaign is now dropping Dreambot banking Trojan, which was followed by a GET request for a Tor module that is used for post-infection C2 traffic. Tor functionality was incorporated into Dreambot since at least July 2016. On June 28th, 2017, this same campaign was pushing Pushdo/Cutwail Botnet.

We can see some post-infection DNS queries:
The DNS queries triggered the following ET rule:
ET POLICY OpenDNS IP Lookup
Following the delivery and execution of the malware payload we can see a GET request for the Tor module located at www2[.]cloudchai[.]net/t32.bin. The resource would be called “t64.bin” if the OS was 64 bit.
The Tor traffic triggered the following ET rule:
ET POLICY TLS possible TOR SSL traffic
