A malware campaign is using fake OnlyFans content and adult lures to install a remote access trojan known as 'DcRAT,' allowing threat actors to steal data and credentials or deploy ransomware on the infected device.
This is not the first time threat actors have taken advantage of OnlyFans to achieve their malicious goals, as in January 2023, attackers abused an open redirect on a UK state site to direct visitors to fake OnlyFans sites.
One of these cases comes from October 2021, when a politically-themed threat actor dropped it onto compromised systems along with several other malware families.
New 'PowerDrop' PowerShell malware targets U.S. aerospace industry.
New AhRat Android malware hidden in app with 50,000 installs.
Stealthy SeroXen RAT malware increasingly used to target gamers.
