    EvilTokens Doesn’t Just Steal Microsoft Sessions—Its AI Tells Attackers Who to Scam Next

    News Cyber Security News2h ago6 sources

    EvilTokens is pushing phishing beyond the moment a victim clicks a link. The service steals Microsoft 365 session access, then examines the compromised mailbox to help criminals choose the contacts, payments, and conversations most likely to produce fraud.

A lure sends the target to a controlled page, where a device code is created and the user is directed to Microsoft’s authentic login site to approve it.

  2. Hackers Abuse Google Sites to Host Fake OpenAI Codex Download Pages

    News Cyber Security News1h ago4 sources

    Cybercriminals are using Google Sites to host fake download pages for OpenAI Codex, turning a familiar search into a malware trap.

Cato analysts identified the activity after tracking…

    Like a sleeper cell awaiting activation, a never-before-seen Windows backdoor dubbed Sleepwalker waits silently in memory for one specifically crafted network packet to wake it up and deliver commands using the malware's 23-instruction language. The commands can do everything from running code directly in memory to moving data off the computer. Malware researcher Dominik Reichel discovered the passive backdoor, which also has its own command language, and detailed Sleepwalker in a technical analysis on Monday. “What makes it worth writing up is what that packet carries: not a readable…
