Threat Awareness – Threat Actors Target Recruiters Posing as Job Applicants
Cybersecurity researchers have recently identified a phishing campaign designed to distribute More_eggs malware through malicious resumes in fake job applications. This attack specifically targets recruiters, whereby posing as a job applicant, the threat actor lures the recruiter to a malicious website. More_eggs malware acts as a backdoor and is capable of harvesting sensitive information. It operates under a Malware-as-a-Service (MaaS) model making it available to other less-sophisticated threat actors, expanding its use.
