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.

Integrating AI into Attack Operations, From AI-Generated Decoy Documents to a Local LLM
The Kimsuky threat group has integrated artificial intelligence capabilities into its attack operations, establishing local large language model environments using Ollama, GPT4All, and Msty. Evidence indicates the group is accumulating technologies to incorporate AI across attack operations, including AI-generated decoy documents and retrieval-augmented generation for document analysis. The campaign, dubbed Operation GitPower, continues targeting foreign diplomatic missions and sectors including military, security, and virtual assets. Attacks utilize malicious LNK files contained in ZIP archives, executing obfuscated PowerShell scripts that abuse Git-based repositories as command-and-control infrastructure. The group distributes encrypted AsyncRAT payloads disguised as image files through GitHub. Linguistic indicators including North Korean vocabulary patterns such as "싸이트", "가입리력", and "로출되였는지" support attribution to North Korean state-sponsored operations under the Reconnaissance General Bureau.

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

🔥The "Kim" leak is an intelligence goldmine.
For analysts: We’ve got an unprecedented look into a DPRK threat actor's playbook. This isn't just about known tactics like credential theft and phishing. Our analysis shows a strategic pivot to include Taiwanese developer and government networks, revealing a clear geographical expansion of North Korea's cyber interests.
For defenders: We've mapped the full scope of this threat—from custom Linux rootkits to particular targets like PKI infrastructure and specific tools like NASM and ocrmypdf. Our report provides defensive recommendations and specific Indicators of Compromise (IOCs), so your team can detect and block this persistent, infrastructure-centric campaign.
Get the full technical breakdown and all the IOCs in our new post.

Haktywiści przejmują komputer hakera działającego na zlecenie rządu Korei Północnej. Kulisy działania północnokoreańskich grup APT
Na początku 2025 r. dwóch hakerów posługujących się pseudonimami “Saber” oraz “cyb0rg” (ich tożsamość nie jest znana) uzyskali dostęp do infrastruktury, wyróżniającej się nietypowym zestawem narzędzi hakerskich. Postanowili dokładnie przeanalizować zawartość systemu oraz śledzić działania hakera, w celu ustalenia jak najwięcej szczegółów dotyczących jego aktywności. TLDR: Jak to wszystko się...

The #Kimsuky divergences in #ToyBox append a new command category in toys/android/ with the following options:
- getenforce / setenforce -> Query and modify SELinux enforcement
- restorecon / runcon -> Reset or run processes under SELinux contexts
- sendevent -> Generate low-level input events (touch/keys)
- log, logwrapper -> Interface with Android’s logging system
- load_policy -> Load SELinux policiesAlso include GN/Ninja integration (Google’s build system) for AOSP devices.
My guess is most likely used in their Android malware development
