Unicoin said it regained access to its G-Suite on August 13, and it's still working to determine to what extent company data has been compromised. Attackers definitely broke into the company G-Suite.
New research from cybersecurity company Volexity revealed details about a highly sophisticated attack deployed by a Chinese-speaking cyberespionage threat actor named StormBamboo. StormBamboo compromised an ISP to modify some DNS answers to queries from systems requesting legitimate software updates.
Two cross-site scripting vulnerabilities affecting Roundcube could be exploited by attackers to steal users' emails and contacts, email password, and send emails from their account. "No user interaction beyond viewing the attacker's email is required to exploit. For CVE-2024-42008, a single click by the victim is needed for the exploit to work, but the attacker can make this interaction unobvious for the user," Sonar vulnerability researcher Oskar Zeino-Mahmalat noted.
The China-linked threat actor known as Evasive Panda compromised an unnamed internet service provider to push malicious software updates to target companies in mid-2023, highlighting a new level of sophistication associated with the group. It was also found to have targeted an international non-governmental organization in Mainland China with MgBot delivered via update channels of legitimate applications like Tencent QQ. While it was speculated that the trojanized updates were either the result of a supply chain compromise of Tencent QQ's update servers or a case of an adversary-in-the-middle attack, Volexity's analysis confirms it's the latter stemming from a DNS poisoning attack at the ISP level.
While phishing emails can target individuals and businesses of all sizes, attackers may prefer to double down their aim at senior-level employees to increase their chances of catching a big bag. Popularly known as business email compromise, this type of email scam, which often involves impersonating executives or other high-level officials to trick employees into transferring money or revealing sensitive information, is a growing threat today, costing organizations billions of dollars annually.
