Odaily Planet Daily News: The latest report from the cybersecurity company Check Point Research (CPR) shows that the cryptocurrency theft malware Inferno Drainer, which claimed to cease operations in November 2023, is still active and has stolen over 9 million dollars in the past six months. This malware has attacked more than 30,000 cryptocurrency wallets, primarily targeting Ethereum and BNB Chain users. Researchers found that the smart contract of Inferno Drainer has been continuously operating since its deployment in 2023, with the latest version utilizing one-time-use smart contracts and on-chain encryption configurations, significantly enhancing its concealment. Its command and control servers obfuscate communication through proxy systems, making attacks harder to trace. Recently, this malware has implemented phishing by faking the verification interface of the well-known Discord bot Collab.Land, using 'subtle visual differences' to induce users to sign malicious transactions. CPR warns that since the legitimate Collab.Land itself requires wallet signature verification, even experienced users may lower their guard. CPR advises users to verify the authenticity of the platform before connecting their wallets. (Decrypt)
