Cyber Espionage / APT
The advanced persistent threat (APT) group known as Winter Vivern is currently focusing its cyber espionage efforts on officials in Europe and the U.S. According to a recent report by Proofpoint, this group, also referred to as TA473, has been exploiting an unpatched Zimbra vulnerability in publicly accessible webmail portals since at least February 2023.

Cryptocurrency / Cyber Attack
A sophisticated supply chain attack on 3CX has led to a second-stage implant specifically targeting a select number of cryptocurrency firms. Kaspersky, a Russian cybersecurity company, has been monitoring this adaptable backdoor, known as Gopuram, since 2020. They noted a surge in infections coinciding with the March 2023 3CX breach. Gopuram’s main purpose is to connect to a command-and-control (C2) server, enabling attackers to interact with the victim’s file system, initiate processes, and execute up to eight in-memory modules. The malware has ties to North Korea, as it has been found on victim machines alongside AppleJeus, another backdoor linked to the Korean-speaking Lazarus group, which previously targeted a cryptocurrency company in Southeast Asia in 2020. This recent focus on cryptocurrency firms underscores a troubling trend.
