Hackers are modifying the open source code of a popular malware strain, adding tools and functions that make it easier to steal data.
Researchers at Cisco Talos said they have been tracking a number of variants of the SapphireStealer malware being used by multiple threat actors. The attacks typically steal sensitive information, including corporate credentials, which is then resold to other threat actors “who leverage the access for additional attacks, including operations related to espionage or ransomware/extortion.”
