Un logiciel malveillant distribué via le PlayStore
Les auteurs distribuent le logiciel malveillant Anatsa via le PlayStore en le déguisant en applications telles que des lecteurs de PDF et des scanners de QRcode. Une fois installé, Anatsa télécharge sa charge utile et vole des infos bancaires sensibles à l'aide de superpositions. Anatsa a ciblé des applications bancaires en Europe et s'est étendu aux US, à la Corée et à Singapour.
Hi #oss folks, I need #help with a possible #malware infection in #Firefox on #Linux. After accidentally visiting a spammy website I am getting suspicious and short-lived #popup windows with a grey border in the corner of the screen. Their text seems to always starts with (A). The first one was ostensibly about Norton, this one McAfee. Tough to verify any fix since they only appear once in a while; I did get a photo of one:
LockBit says they stole data in London Drugs ransomware attack
the LockBit ransomware gang claimed they were behind the April cyberattack on Canadian pharmacy chain London Drugs and is now threatening to publish stolen data online after allegedly failed negotiations
Heaven for domestic abuse: a new spywaretool just up for grabs. It's like having Pegasus at home. What could possibly go wrong? Microsoft knows most families share their accounts or at least can easily log into eachothers accounts. They just choose to ignore it.
Windows vulnerability reported by the NSA exploited to install Russian malware
Kremlin-backed hackers have been exploiting a critical Microsoft vulnerability for four years in attacks that targeted a vast array of organizations with a previously undocumented tool, the software maker disclosed
Low severity [#malware incident] A #minecraft mod called "Windows Borderless" on #Modrinth was taken down yesterday. It contained #spyware wich stole credentials from Chrome and Chromium-Based browsers. Only Windows users were affected. The mod was not found in any modpacks and was not uploaded to other platforms. A detection tool can be found in the official blog post. According to @modrinth, ~372 IPs downloaded the mod. https://blog.modrinth.com/p/windows-borderless-malware-disclosure
#Shaarli: WPCode keeps reappearing as a malware after deleting | WordPress.org - Options à insérer dans le fichier wp-config (racine d'une installation de WordPress) pour empêcher la modification des fichiers via l'éditeur interne et désactiver l'ajout d'extensions.
Permission-based systems are bad. See #XUL getting replaced by #WebExtensions for example. It didn't stop #malware from getting into the #browser or the extension store. On the contrary, the malware problem only got worse after the complete replacement of XUL extensions, which is often disparaged as "insecure" because it allowed users to pretty much change how their browser fundamentally works.
Who knew that distrusting your users and not giving them control leads to more malicious software and user #security being broken more often. :seija_coffee:
Premiering now! Had a great conversation with Shannon Morse about my issues reviewing some mini PCs that came pre-loaded with malware. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oH2R3o-EbTA
She offers some GREAT tips and tricks for folks interested in keeping their home networks secure and their data safe!
A new malware named 'Cuttlefish' has been spotted infecting enterprise-grade and small office/home office (SOHO) routers to monitor data that passes through them and steal authentication information.
Oh, great. Computer security researchers have developed a proof-of-concept for a type of ransomware that would act when you try to upload a file. It would be able to encrypt any files in the folder you uploaded from, and any subfolders of it.
This is a proof-of-concept; the researchers have not seen any such attacks in the wild. But stay careful out there, okay?
Affects Chrome and Edge, but not Firefox or Safari!
WTF? Is #Tenacity on the #Flatpak store #MALWARE? Apparently it was running in the bg AS IF it was an invincible #Gnome extension so SystemMonitor/htop would NOT see it as a process. But #MissionCenter (also from flatpak store) saw it as it is: an app running on startup! Killing it killed Gnome session! It was also spiking wifi, and was leaking the Gnome gjs service from 4MB RAM to 120MB. Uninstalling fixed the prob
