A sophisticated Chinese cybercrime group is using old, leaked computer code from a notorious cyber-arms dealer known as HackingTeam to breach thousands of companies, mostly based in Asia, according to new research by Israel cybersecurity firm Intezer. The latest observation shows how HackingTeam’s breach in 2015, when its wares leaked online for anyone to copy, is still having effects on global security. HackingTeam claims that it only sells its “lawful intercept” product to governments and law enforcement agencies, but prior investigations have shown the extent to which these tools are often abused by authoritarian regimes to target otherwise innocent dissidents.

This scam focuses on convincing victims to download a Microsoft Word document that masquerades as a job posting for a position at a British cryptocurrency company. Once downloaded, the document prompts the user to “enable editing” and “enable content functions.” If the victim enables the prompt, a macro installs a backdoor that allows the attackers to install […]
