During a forensics investigation, Security Joes Incident Response team discovered a new Linux Wiper malware they tracked as BiBi-Linux Wiper.
Pro-Hamas hacktivist group used the wiper to destroy the infrastructure of Israeli companies.
The researchers noticed that the malware is an x64 ELF executable that lacks obfuscation or protective measures. The malware sample analyzed by the experts is written in C/C++, with a file size of approximately 1.2MB. This binary was compiled using the GCC compiler. Threat actors can specify target folders, however, the wiper can potentially destroy an entire operating system when runs with root permissions.
