Malware Disguised as AI Tools Targets Windows Users - Cybercriminals are disguising malware as legitimate AI tool installers, including ransomware and destructive malware, targeting Windows systems.
Cybercriminals are increasingly leveraging the popularity of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to distribute malware, targeting Windows users with fake installers disguised as legitimate AI tools. These malicious campaigns involve ransomware such as CyberLock and Lucky_Gh0$t, as well as a destructive malware called Numero. The attackers create convincing fake websites, often with domain names closely resembling those of actual AI vendors, to trick users into downloading and executing the poisoned software. These threats are primarily distributed through online channels, including SEO poisoning to manipulate search engine rankings and the use of social media and messaging platforms like Telegram.

CyberLock ransomware, for instance, has been observed masquerading as a lead monetization AI platform called NovaLeadsAI, complete with a deceptive website offering "free access" for the first year. Once downloaded, the ‘NovaLeadsAI.exe’ file deploys the ransomware, encrypting various file types and demanding a hefty ransom payment. Another threat, Numero, impacts victims by manipulating the graphical user interface components of their Windows operating system, rendering the machines unusable. Fake AI installers for tools like ChatGPT and InVideo AI are also being used to deliver ransomware and information stealers, often targeting businesses in sales, technology, and marketing sectors.

Cisco Talos researchers emphasize the need for users to be cautious about the sources of AI tools they download and install, particularly from untrusted sources. Businesses, especially those in sales, technology, and marketing, are prime targets, highlighting the need for robust endpoint protection and user awareness training. These measures can help mitigate the risks associated with AI-related scams and protect sensitive data and financial assets from falling into the hands of cybercriminals. The attacks underscore the importance of vigilance and verifying the legitimacy of software before installation.

Noodlophile Stealer Distributed via Fake AI Platforms - A multi-stage malware campaign is distributing the Noodlophile information stealer through fake AI video generation platforms, targeting over 2.3 million users in the EU with sophisticated evasion techniques.
A sophisticated multi-stage malware campaign is exploiting the growing interest in AI video generation tools to distribute the Noodlophile information stealer. Cybercriminals are using social media platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn to post malicious ads that lure users to fake websites promising AI video generation services. These websites, designed to mimic legitimate AI tools such as Luma AI, Canva Dream Lab, and Kling AI, instead deliver a range of malware including infostealers, Trojans, and backdoors. The campaign has been active since mid-2024, with thousands of malicious ads reaching millions of unsuspecting users.

The attackers, identified as the Vietnamese-speaking threat group UNC6032, utilize a complex infrastructure to evade detection. They constantly rotate the domains used in their ads and create new ads daily, using both compromised and newly created accounts. Once a user clicks on a malicious ad and visits a fake website, they are led through a deceptive process that appears to generate an AI video. However, instead of receiving a video, the user is prompted to download a ZIP file containing malware. Executing this file compromises the device, potentially logging keystrokes, scanning for password managers and digital wallets, and installing backdoors.

The malware deployed in this campaign includes the STARKVEIL dropper, which then deploys the XWorm and FROSTRIFT backdoors, and the GRIMPULL downloader. The Noodlophile stealer itself is designed to extract sensitive information such as login credentials, cookies, and credit card data, which is then exfiltrated through Telegram. Mandiant Threat Defense reports that these attacks have resulted in the theft of personal information and are concerned that the stolen data is likely sold on illegal online markets. Users are urged to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of AI tools before using them.

Fake AI Generators Deliver Rust-Based Malware - UNC6032, a Vietnam-based group, is distributing Rust-based malware via malicious ads for fake AI video generators on platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn, stealing sensitive data.
A Vietnam-based cybercriminal group, identified as UNC6032, is exploiting the public's fascination with AI to distribute malware. The group has been actively using malicious advertisements on platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn since mid-2024, luring users with promises of access to popular prompt-to-video AI generation tools such as Luma AI, Canva Dream Lab, and Kling AI. These ads direct victims to fake websites mimicking legitimate dashboards, where they are tricked into downloading ZIP files containing infostealers and backdoors.

The multi-stage attack involves sophisticated social engineering techniques. The initial ZIP file contains an executable disguised as a harmless video file using Braille characters to hide the ".exe" extension. Once executed, this binary, named STARKVEIL and written in Rust, unpacks legitimate binaries and malicious DLLs to the "C:\winsystem\" folder. It then prompts the user to re-launch the program after displaying a fake error message. On the second run, STARKVEIL deploys a Python loader called COILHATCH, which decrypts and side-loads further malicious payloads.

This campaign has impacted a wide range of industries and geographic areas, with the United States being the most frequently targeted. The malware steals sensitive data, including login credentials, cookies, credit card information, and Facebook data, and establishes persistent access to compromised systems. UNC6032 constantly refreshes domains to evade detection, and while Meta has removed many of these malicious ads, users are urged to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of AI tools before using them.

Fake AI tools used to spread Noodlophile Stealer - Attackers are exploiting AI hype on Facebook to spread Noodlophile Stealer, which steals browser credentials, crypto wallets, and sensitive data via fake AI video generation tools.
A new malware campaign is exploiting the hype surrounding artificial intelligence to distribute the Noodlophile Stealer, an information-stealing malware. Morphisec researcher Shmuel Uzan discovered that attackers are enticing victims with fake AI video generation tools advertised on social media platforms, particularly Facebook. These platforms masquerade as legitimate AI services for creating videos, logos, images, and even websites, attracting users eager to leverage AI for content creation.

Posts promoting these fake AI tools have garnered significant attention, with some reaching over 62,000 views. Users who click on the advertised links are directed to bogus websites, such as one impersonating CapCut AI, where they are prompted to upload images or videos. Instead of receiving the promised AI-generated content, users are tricked into downloading a malicious ZIP archive named "VideoDreamAI.zip," which contains an executable file designed to initiate the infection chain.

The "Video Dream MachineAI.mp4.exe" file within the archive launches a legitimate binary associated with ByteDance's CapCut video editor, which is then used to execute a .NET-based loader. This loader, in turn, retrieves a Python payload from a remote server, ultimately leading to the deployment of the Noodlophile Stealer. This malware is capable of harvesting browser credentials, cryptocurrency wallet information, and other sensitive data. In some instances, the stealer is bundled with a remote access trojan like XWorm, enabling attackers to gain entrenched access to infected systems.
