Adobe Acrobat Sign abused to push Redline info-stealing malware
2023-03-16 18:45

Cybercriminals are abusing Adobe Acrobat Sign, an online document signing service, to distribute info-stealing malware to unsuspecting users.

Adobe Acrobat Sign is a free-to-try cloud-based e-signature service allowing users to send, sign, track, and manage electronic signatures.

Redline is a dangerous malware capable of stealing account credentials, cryptocurrency wallets, credit cards, and other information stored on the breached device.

Clicking on the link of the specifically-crafted message sent via Adobe Acrobat Sign took the victim to a document claiming music copyright infringement, a common and believable theme for YouTube channel owners.

Avast has shared all details of its findings with Adobe and dochub.com, and hopefully, the two services will find a way to stop abuse from malware operators.

New Stealc malware emerges with a wide set of stealing capabilities.
