The malware written in C++ gets to your computer through fake banner ads.
In a recent report, researchers at Zscaler reported the discovery of a new malware called "Statc Stealer", which infects Windows devices to steal confidential personal data and payment information of victims.
According to experts, Statc Stealer demonstrates a wide range of data theft capabilities, which makes it a very serious threat. It is able to steal personal information from various browsers, including usernames, passwords, cookies, cryptocurrency wallets, various web data and settings.
The researchers also recorded interception of data from Telegram and other messengers, probably running in the web version via a browser.
The malware is written in C++ and gets on the victim's computer when the victim clicks on a seemingly harmless ad, and then downloads and runs the executable file. At the first stage, the malware invisibly installs the loader, which downloads the main malware.
Statc Stealer uses sophisticated methods to bypass sandboxes and analyze code. It establishes an HTTPS connection to the C2 server to receive commands and send stolen data.
Malicious software targets include Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Brave, Opera, and Yandex Browser. According to the researchers, the ability to steal confidential data from browsers makes Statc Stealer particularly dangerous for identity theft and financial fraud.
Experts note that malware capable of stealing personal data from browsers has been a growing threat in recent years. Malware like Statc Stealer allows attackers to gain access to the confidential information of millions of users around the world.
