A malware campaign, DEV#POPPER, is targeting software developers across Windows, Linux, and macOS systems. Linked to North Korea, the threat actors use social engineering to trick victims into divulging information or downloading malicious software. The campaign uses obfuscated JavaScript and Python backdoors, along with enhanced obfuscation and remote monitoring to exfiltrate sensitive data.
Here is the summary of the meeting notes:
– Threat actors behind an ongoing malware campaign, DEV#POPPER, have expanded their focus to target software developers on Windows, Linux, and macOS systems.
– The campaign employs advanced social engineering techniques to trick software developers into downloading booby-trapped software under the guise of a job interview.
– The malware campaign has been linked to North Korea and has targeted victims across South Korea, North America, Europe, and the Middle East.
– Signs indicate that the campaign is broader and cross-platform in scope, with new features such as enhanced obfuscation, AnyDesk remote monitoring and management software for persistence, and improvements to the FTP mechanism employed for data exfiltration.
– The malware campaign utilizes Python scripts to execute a multi-stage attack focused on exfiltrating sensitive information from victims, with capabilities including stealing data from web browsers and logging keystrokes and clipboard content.
