Hackers Inject Skimmer Into Boom! Mobile's Website
2020-10-06 13:43

Hackers associated with the "Fullz House" group have compromised the website of Boom! Mobile and planted a web skimmer, Malwarebytes reports.

The attack on Boom! Mobile, Malwarebytes reveals, involved the injection of one line of code containing a Base64 encoded URL designed to load a JavaScript library from a remote domain used in a previous attack.

The injected URL, Malwarebytes' security researchers say, loads a fake Google Analytics script which is nothing more than a credit card skimmer designed to find specific input fields and exfiltrate data from those fields.

Boom! Mobile's website is running PHP version 5.6.40 and this, or a vulnerable plugin, might have been the point of entry, Malwarebytes notes.

The security firm also says that it reported the incident to the wireless services provider both via live chat and email, but hasn't heard back and the compromise hasn't been addressed yet, meaning that Boom! Mobile customers continue to be at risk.
