Between late September 2025 and early April 2026, the threat group BlueDelta conducted espionage campaigns targeting government and diplomatic organizations in Romania, Spain, and Türkiye. They deployed HOOKEDGE, a lightweight Windows batch-script backdoor, via macro-enabled Word documents with diplomatic-themed lures. HOOKEDGE shares code and tradecraft overlap with the HEADLACE backdoor and abuses legitimate webhook services for command-and-control, payload staging, and data exfiltration. The implant was continuously refined to evade sandbox detection and adapt to webhook service constraints. BlueDelta used a tiered operational model, deploying second-stage payloads with shorter beaconing intervals for high-value targets while preserving initial access infrastructure.
