Hackers hide malware in James Webb telescope images
"Threat analysts have spotted a new malware campaign dubbed ‘GO#WEBBFUSCATOR’ that relies on phishing emails, malicious documents, and space images from the James Webb telescope to spread malware.
The malware is written in Golang, a programming language that is gaining popularity among cybercriminals because it is cross-platform (Windows, Linux, Mac) and offers increased resistance to reverse engineering and analysis.
In the recent campaign discovered by researchers at Securonix, the threat actor drops payloads that are currently not marked as malicious by antivirus engines on the VirusTotal scanning platform..
During testing, Securonix observed the threat actors running arbitrary enumeration commands on its test systems, a standard first reconnaissance step.
The researchers note that the domains used for the campaign were registered recently, the oldest one on May 29, 2022.
Securonix has provided a set of indicators of compromise (IoCs) that includes both network and host-based indicators."
