A large-scale smishing campaign has been exposed involving 1,628 malicious URLs linked by a unique 128-character HTML fingerprint. This campaign spans 19 countries and uses infrastructure distributed across multiple cloud providers including Tencent Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, Cloudflare anycast, and ALEXHOST Moldova. The campaign targets users via SMS phishing (smishing) with URLs designed to deceive recipients. The detection artifact is a consistent metadata hash found on all phishing pages, facilitating identification. There is no information about active exploitation or patches since this is a threat campaign rather than a software vulnerability.
