*** The Best Of Both Worlds - Soraya ***
---------------------------------------------
Arbor Networks' ASERT has recently discovered a new malware family that combines several techniques to steal payment card information. Dubbed Soraya, meaning 'rich', this malware uses memory scraping techniques similar to those found in Dexter to target point-of-sale terminals. Soraya also intercepts form data sent from web browsers, similar to the Zeus family of malware. Neither of these two techniques are new, but we have not seen them used together in the same piece of malware.
