Hackers are using malicious JavaScript samples to steal sensitive data. Researchers have found that these malware scripts employ sophisticated techniques, such as obfuscation and selective payload detonation, to evade security tools. The stolen data is exfiltrated through phishing pages, skimming sites, and abusing legitimate APIs. The malware authors employ tactics like dynamic HTML generation, image-based exfiltration, and keyword triggers to hide their activities. Unit 42 researchers have developed advanced analysis techniques to track information flows within JavaScript code. Website owners are advised to keep software updated and monitor exfiltration endpoints, while users should be cautious with online forms and links and invest in security software. #cybersecurity #cybersecuritynews #vulnerability
