Importing the package reads SSH private keys, AWS credentials and the Kubernetes config, then sends them to an attacker-…
A ClickFix malvertising campaign uses sponsored Google results for "amazon business" to lure victims to a fake Amazon login page on Google Sites and then to a fake CAPTCHA. The CAPTCHA pastejacks a command into the clipboard that the victim is told to run in the Windows Run box. The command abuses the legacy finger.exe utility to fetch a …
