Security News > 2023 > June > New Mystic Stealer malware increasingly used in attacks
A new information-stealing malware named 'Mystic Stealer,' has been promoted on hacking forums and darknet markets since April 2023, quickly gaining traction in the cybercrime community.
Two individual reports on Mystic Stealer, published almost simultaneously by Zscaler and Cyfirma, warn about the emergence of the new malware, its sophistication, and what appears to be a surge in sales that brings many new campaigns online.
The seller advertised the new malware on multiple hacking forums, including the WWH-Club, BHF, and XSS, renting it to interested individuals for the competitive subscription price of $150 per month or $390 per quarter.
It is reported that the creator of the new malware accepts feedback from established members of the underground hacking community and openly invites them to share suggestions for improving Mystic.
