BlackBerry found that threat actors are increasingly diversifying tooling to hijack devices to mine or steal crypto.
Blackberry has detected several malware families that are being used to run massive campaigns for stealing crypto from devices.
‘SmokeLoader’ is one of the most prominent malware families that has been a recurring presence in the threat landscape.Since its first appearance in 2011, SmokeLoader has become immensely popular. Initially associated with Russian-based threat actors until 2014, it has been employed to distribute a variety of malware, ranging from ransomware and infostealers to crypto miners and banking Trojans.
Once it infiltrates a victim’s system, SmokeLoader establishes a persistence mechanism to survive reboots, employs DLL injection to camouflage within legitimate processes, conducts host enumeration, and downloads/installs additional files or malware to further its malicious activities.
