Threat Source newsletter for April 9, 2020
Summary: Cisco Talos researchers found they could unlock many devices with a replicated fingerprint made from a 3-D printer or resin model, a technique that matters most for high-profile targets rather than average users. Talos also reported a campaign delivering several payloads at once: an XMRigCC-based Monero miner, a clipboard-replacing trojan, a variant of the AZORult information stealer, a Remcos remote access tool variant, and the DarkVNC backdoor.
What you should know: The AZORult campaign bundles a cryptocurrency miner, a clipboard hijacker that can swap copied wallet addresses, and a backdoor in one operation, so a single infection can drain funds and hand an attacker remote access at the same time.
