WebRAT malware GitHub exploit targeting fake vulnerability repositories

WebRAT Malware Exploits GitHub Trust: Cybercriminals Weaponize Fake Vulnerability Exploits

Ravi Jain
Cybercriminals are currently distributing the WebRAT malware by disguising it as legitimate security research tools and exploit code on GitHub. These attackers utilize AI-generated content and fake proof-of-concept repositories for recent vulnerabilities to deceive tech-savvy professionals, such as penetration testers and developers. Once downloaded, the malware disables system defenses and establishes persistent access to monitor webcams and steal sensitive credentials for platforms like Discord and cryptocurrency wallets. To counter this evolution in social engineering, experts recommend using isolated virtual environments and performing thorough source verification before executing any public code. Organizations can further mitigate these risks through privileged access management and specialized security training for technical staff. ... Read More
