Description of Campaign
The information stealing CryptBot malware family was updated with a new functionality to streamline C2 communication and steal data from the Google Chrome browser.
The text file and screenshot collection functions and the self-deletion behavior have also been removed. As with previous versions, the malware still contains an antiVM routine to check the number of CPU cores and memory capacity.
Our ATR Team gathers and analyzes information from multiple open and closed sources before disseminating intelligence reports. This campaign was researched by AhnLab and
shared publicly.
