Threats Tagged 'judicial notification'

A sophisticated phishing campaign targets Colombian users by impersonating the Attorney General's Office with judicial notification lures. The attack uses a multi-stage infection chain starting with a malicious . SVG file attachment that triggers HTA, VBS, and PowerShell scripts, ultimately injecting the AsyncRAT malware into MSBuild.exe. AsyncRAT establishes command and control (C2) communications, steals data, and can dynamically load plugins. The campaign employs anti-virtual machine (VM) techniques, persistence mechanisms, and heavy obfuscation to evade detection. Although primarily focused on Colombia, the advanced tactics and malware capabilities pose risks to any organization exposed to similar phishing vectors. The threat demonstrates extensive use of MITRE ATT&CK techniques, including execution, persistence, defense evasion, credential access, and command and control. No known exploits or CVEs are associated, and the severity is assessed as medium based on current information.
