Government and state-owned organizations in a number of Asian countries have been targeted by a distinct group of espionage hackers as part of an intelligence gathering mission that has been underway since early 2021.
“A notable feature of these attacks is that the attackers leveraged a wide range of legitimate software packages in order to load their malware payloads using a technique known as DLL side-loading,” the Symantec Threat Hunter team, part of Broadcom Software, said in a report shared with The Hacker News.
