“This campaign resulted in thousands of victims,” the Dutch cybersecurity company said, adding, “Erbium stealer successfully exfiltrated data from more then 1,300 victims.”
What is ERMAC infection?
The ERMAC infections commence with a fraudulent internet site that statements to offer you Wi-Fi authorization software package for Android and Windows that, when installed, will come with features to steal seed phrases from crypto wallets and other sensitive knowledge.
ThreatFabric said it also found a number of malicious apps that were trojanized versions of legitimate apps like Instagram, with the operators using them as droppers to deliver the obfuscated malicious payload.
