According to Cointelegraph, cybersecurity firm Morphisec has revealed that a counterfeit desktop application masquerading as Anthropic’s "Claude Opus 5 Free Desktop" is being leveraged to distribute the Windows malware RevStealer. The malicious program can exfiltrate data from over 50 cryptocurrency wallets, while simultaneously harvesting sensitive information including browser passwords, cookies, VPN configurations, message logs, and screenshots. RevStealer incorporates anti-detection measures, performing system environment checks on the target device prior to execution. If traces of debugging or virtualized environments are detected, it aborts its operation. Additionally, Russian cybersecurity company Kaspersky has disclosed OkoBot, a novel malware framework targeting crypto investors capable of harvesting wallet files, injecting malicious extensions, and capturing wallet application windows to siphon assets.
Odaily Odaily PaperImperium, the head of MegaETH, disclosed on X platform that documents from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York show that a U.S. court has issued an injunction against the Arbitrum DAO, prohibiting it from transferring approximately $71 million in ETH assets that were previously frozen during the KelpDAO hacking incident. In response, on-chain detective ZachXBT posted on X platform, stating that certain U.S. law firms are using his investigative work and on-chain forensics to help victims of some hacking incidents file legal claims. However, this practice may actually slow down or hinder victims from receiving compensation or recovering funds.ZachXBT added that in previous hacking incidents involving the Lazarus Group, such law firms often stepped in after on-chain fund tracking or freezing was completed, proposing subsequent legal actions that were weakly related to the crypto incidents themselves. Similar "free-riding claims" strategies were used in events like Harmony and Bybit. He called on the crypto community to establish a DAO to resist such practices.
