    Increased Activity of Magecart Attacks Observed in the Wild Skimming Credit Card Data

    Recent observations have identified an increase in script injection attacks targeting vulnerable websites in an attempt to skim credit card information of customers. These attacks often exploit stolen third-party credentials of E-Commerce platforms that might have privileged access to the website. In some cases vulnerabilities are exploited to grant access to the vulnerable hosted website instead. Notably, such activities have been prevalent during seasonal marketing campaigns, such as Black Friday and will most likely continue onwards to the holidays. These type of attacks are usually attributed to 'Magecart' - Threat Actor groups that initiated said attacks on Magecart and other E-Commerce platforms, however this type of attack is most likely not attributed to only one group.

    chinese APT gelsemium targets linux systems with new wolfsbane backdoor

    A new Linux backdoor named "Wolfsbane," attributed to the China-aligned advanced persistent threat (APT) actor known as Gelsemium was discovered. This malware is part of cyber attacks targeting East and Southeast Asia, as reported by cybersecurity firm ESET. The findings are based on multiple Linux samples uploaded to VirusTotal from Taiwan, the Philippines, and Singapore in March 2023. Wolfsbane is considered a Linux counterpart to Gelsemium's previously known Windows backdoor, "Gelsevirine," which has been in use since 2014. Additionally, another implant called "Firewood" has been linked to Gelsemium, although its attribution is less certain due to potential overlaps with other China-linked hacking groups. The primary goal of these tools is cyber espionage, focusing on sensitive data collection.

    Threat Actors Exploit GitHub Trusted Reputation to Distribute Malware

    In a concerning development, threat actors are once again leveraging GitHub’s reputation to bypass security gateways. They are observed distributing malicious GitHub repository links within the comments of trusted repositories to spread malware. Organizations with open-source repositories that permit comments are particularly vulnerable to this attack. Malicious actors can submit comments linking to malicious code , which may then be embedded in a subdirectory of the organization’s main open-source code or archive which can be accessed. Even with the comment removed the file is archived and the link to the malware can remain alive. This also has the opportunity to be a drive-by attack vector for other malware types. Organizations should consider adding additional measures to block Github links that may bypass secure email gateways' security. Add additional warning messages so users are aware of the potential risks, or configure certain policies to protect against unsolicited downloads from GitHub.
