∗∗∗ New MFA-bypassing phishing kit targets Microsoft 365, Gmail accounts ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Cybercriminals have been increasingly using a new phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform named Tycoon 2FA to target Microsoft 365 and Gmail accounts and bypass two-factor authentication (2FA) protection. [..] In 2024, Tycoon 2FA released a new version that is stealthier, indicating a continuous effort to improve the kit. Currently, the service leverages 1,100 domains and has been observed in thousands of phishing attacks.

[..] Die Infrastruktur der NaurLegal-Kampagne umfasst Domänen, die mit WikiLoader verknüpft sind und deren Folgeaktivitäten auf eine Zuordnung zu dieser Malware-Familie schließen lassen. WikiLoader ist bekannt für ausgefeilte Verschleierungstechniken, wie z. B. die Überprüfung von Wikipedia-Antworten auf bestimmte Zeichenfolgen, um Sandbox-Umgebungen zu umgehen.

∗∗∗ APT29 Uses WINELOADER to Target German Political Parties ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
In late February, APT29 used a new backdoor variant publicly tracked as WINELOADER to target German political parties with a CDU-themed lure. This is the first time we have seen this APT29 cluster target political parties, indicating a possible area of emerging operational focus beyond the typical targeting of diplomatic missions. Based on the SVR’s responsibility to collect political intelligence and this APT29 cluster’s historical targeting patterns, we judge this activity to present a broad threat to European and other Western political parties from across the political spectrum.

Den Beteiligten ist es demnach gelungen, eine Sicherheitslücke in ARMs GPU-Treiber, die vollen Kernelzugriff und das Erlangen von Root-Rechten ermöglicht, auch auf einem aktuellen Pixel 8 auszunutzen, auf dem die sogenannten Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) aktiviert ist.

---------------------------------------------
The competition for freshly deployed vulnerable devices, or devices not patched for the latest greatest vulnerability, is immense. Your success in the ransomware or access broker ecosystem depends on having a consistently updated list of potential victims. As a result, certain IP addresses routinely scan the internet for specific types of vulnerabilities. One such example is 77.90.185.152. This IP address has been scanning for a different vulnerability each day.

∗∗∗ New DEEP#GOSU Malware Campaign Targets Windows Users with Advanced Tactics ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
A new elaborate attack campaign has been observed employing PowerShell and VBScript malware to infect Windows systems and harvest sensitive information. [..] A notable aspect of the infection procedure is that it leverages legitimate services such as Dropbox or Google Docs for command-and-control (C2), thus allowing the threat actor to blend undetected into regular network traffic. [..] The starting point is said to be a malicious email attachment containing a ZIP archive with a rogue shortcut file (.LNK) that masquerades as a PDF file ("IMG_20240214_0001.pdf.lnk").

Given the potential complexities in the realm of 5G mobile network modems used in a multitude of devices (such as mobile devices and 5G-enabled environments such as Industrial Internet-of-Things and IP cameras), I chose to give the situation a bit more time before revisiting the 5Ghoul vulnerability.
