"Facebook Ads Spreading Ov3r_Stealer Malware to Steal Crypto and Credentials"

A new password-stealing malware called Ov3r_Stealer is being spread through fake job ads on Facebook, leading users to a Discord URL where a PowerShell script downloads the malware payload from a GitHub repository. The malware, discovered by Trustwave, targets a wide range of apps and attempts to steal account credentials and cryptocurrency. It establishes persistence on infected computers and sends stolen data to a Telegram bot every 90 minutes. Trustwave has found links between the malware and specific usernames in software cracking forums and notes code similarities with another stealer, Phemedrone. The nationality of the threat actor behind Ov3r_Stealer remains inconclusive.

Beware of Fake Bitwarden Sites Spreading ZenRAT Malware

Fake Bitwarden websites are distributing installers that contain a new password-stealing malware called ZenRAT. The malware targets Windows users and collects browser data, credentials, and information about the infected host. The fake websites imitate the legitimate Bitwarden site and use typosquatting to deceive victims. Researchers at Proofpoint discovered ZenRAT and found that it is designed to be modular, with the potential for expanded capabilities. The malware is delivered through phishing campaigns and redirects users to a cloned page of an article about Bitwarden if they are not using Windows. The Bitwarden password manager has gained popularity, making it an attractive target for cybercriminals.
