In this blog post, we review a recent phishing campaign that leverages Discord CDN* to host malicious files and lure unsuspecting users into becoming victims of the njRAT malware.

*A CDN, or content delivery network, is a set of geographically disparate servers used to speed up processing of heavy attachments or webpages.
njRAT is a malware classified as a Remote Access Trojan. This means that it is usually used by threat actors looking to control infected PCs remotely or spy on the users by capturing keystrokes, watching users on their webcam, or even listening to a user’s microphone.
