On Christmas Eve, Resecurity’s HUNTER unit the author of perspective password stealer Meduza has released a new version (2.2). One of the key significant improvements are support of more software clients (including browser-based cryptocurrency wallets), upgraded credit card (CC) grabber, and additional advanced mechanisms for password storage dump on various platforms to extract credentials and tokens. Altogether, Meduza makes a great competitor to Azorult, Redline, Racoon, and Vidar Stealer used by cybercriminals for account takeover (ATO), online-banking theft, and financial fraud.
The author behind Meduza distributed the following notification about the update on multiple underground communities and Telegram group:
