Beware of Malicious ChatGPT Extensions and AI-Created Malware
A fake ChatGPT browser extension available for Chrome has been found to contain infostealer malware that collects users' personal data, including passwords and credit card information. The malware has compromised at least 40,000 Facebook accounts, with threat actors changing passwords and account names to those of Lily Collins, star of Netflix's "Emily in Paris." The database also included login credentials for at least 6,000 corporate accounts and 7,000 virtual private network accounts. The Chrome extension has been removed from the Play Store, but the database has been wiped and held for ransom by another threat actor.
