Malware Alert: New DeerStealer Campaign
A new variant of sophisticated information-stealing malware, DeerStealer, has been identified targeting personal and financial data across infected systems. Using signed binaries, rootkit-like techniques, and deceptive installers (like Adobe Acrobat Reader), it evades detection while maintaining persistence via scheduled tasks.
Key highlights:
- Steals system info, credentials, crypto wallets, browser & app data.
- Uses obfuscated files and hidden components for stealth.
- Communicates with C2 servers and can switch servers to avoid detection.
- Sold and supported on dark-web forums and Telegram channels.
- Stay vigilant! Always verify downloads and keep security tools updated.
