North Korea’s Kimsuky Hackers Turn to AI Coding Agents to Mass-Produce Phishing Lures
Genians researchers have linked a new Kimsuky campaign to the group's Operation GitPower cluster, revealing that the North Korean threat actor is now using an AI coding agent called OpenCode to generate phishing decoy documents at industrial scale. The campaign hides encrypted PowerShell loaders inside Windows shortcut files and leans on GitHub and Pastebin for command-and-control. -
Kimsuky Uses the AI Agent 'opencode' to Create Decoys as Its GitHub PAT-Based LNK Attacks Evolve
The Kimsuky threat group continues Operation GitPower campaigns utilizing malicious LNK files disguised as financial and business documents. Thirteen LNK variants collected between August 11-19, 2026, employ GitHub Personal Access Tokens (PAT) for command-and-control communications, delivering obfuscated PowerShell loaders through custom decoders. Notable evolution includes anti-analysis routines detecting virtualization tools, Pastebin as alternative C2 infrastructure, and diversified decoy formats (PDF, XLSX, PNG). Metadata analysis reveals AI-generated content using the 'opencode' AI coding agent and HeadlessChrome PDF conversion, with placeholder text remaining unreviewed. The group maintains persistence through hidden scheduled tasks masquerading as legitimate software (BitLocker, MATLAB), while hardcoded GitHub PATs enable raw content retrieval. Despite increased sophistication in evasion techniques and decoy production automation, endpoint behaviors remain detectable through behavioral correlation a...

Inside Kimsuky's Abuse of Legitimate Remote Control Tools Across Northeast Asia
Kimsuky conducted spear phishing campaigns against South Korean and Japanese targets during the first half of 2026, distributing LNK malware through OneDrive share links. The malicious files established scheduled tasks that periodically fetched PowerShell scripts from command-and-control servers to profile systems, exfiltrate Thunderbird and Outlook email data, and log keystrokes. The threat actor installed legitimate remote control software including Chrome Remote Desktop and AnyDesk to evade antivirus detection and maintain multiple access channels. A malicious Chrome extension designed to steal Gmail data exhibited characteristics of AI-generated code, featuring Korean comments, debug strings, and Unicode emoji throughout. The operation employed rotating infrastructure and compromised legitimate Korean servers as command-and-control nodes to impede tracking efforts.

Interesting technique. Obfuscates its string decoder inside android namespace "com .google .android .material .timepicker". That helper XOR-decodes which then concatenates into the C2: http://95.164.86[.]148/dash/index[.]php. #kimsuky
