Im Rahmen einer 7-jährigen #Malware-Kampagne ist es der mutmaßlich aus #China stammenden #Cybercrime-Gruppering "#ShadyPanda" gelungen, mit schädlichen Browsererweiterungen 4,3 Millionen Chrome- und Edge-Nutzer zu infizieren.

Dabei wurde eine Schwachstelle in der Software-Überprüfung von App-Stores gezielt ausgenutzt, indem nur die erstmalige Einreichung, aber nicht das laufende Verhalten einer App überwacht wird, sodass diese zu Malware umfunktioniert werden kann:

Browser extensions pushed malware to 4.3M Chrome, Edge users

A seven-year malicious browser extension campaign infected 4.3 million Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge users with malware, including backdoors and spyware sending people's data to servers in China. The attackers, which Koi named ShadyPanda, played the long game: publishing legitimate extensions, accumulating thousands or sometimes millions of downloads over several years, and then pushing a malware-laden update that auto updates across the entire user base.
