PANews reported on November 9 that according to Cointelegraph, the North Korean hacker group BlueNoroff has launched a series of phishing and cybersecurity attacks since 2019. The group is currently attacking cryptocurrency companies and developing a new malware that can attack MacOS computers. According to a report from SentinelLabs, the malware nicknamed "Hidden Risk" operates through multiple stages through PDF files. Threat actors use fake news headlines and legitimate encryption market research to lure unsuspecting individuals and companies. Once a user downloads the PDF file, a seemingly legitimate bait PDF is downloaded and opened, while the malware is downloaded as a separate file on the MacOS desktop in the background. The malware package contains multiple functions designed to provide hackers with a backdoor to remotely access the victim's computer to steal sensitive information, including private keys for digital asset wallets and platforms.
