A suspected China-nexus actor, designated SilkParasite, utilizes a modular ecosystem of seven RAT families to target government economic bodies in Central Asia via DLL sideloading and Google Drive-backed C2.

Threat actors are abusing FTP banners as Dead Drop Resolvers (DDRs) to deliver novel RATs, E4del and PINHOLE, using legitimate services like Pinterest and SurveyMonkey for configuration retrieval.

The RMRLX malware family uses a multi-stage JavaScript and PowerShell loader to deploy LxBaseRAT, a sophisticated .NET tool targeting browser credentials, cryptocurrency wallets, and Discord tokens.

Adversaries are globally leveraging the ClickFix social engineering technique to trick Windows and macOS users into executing malicious terminal commands that deliver infostealers and RATs.

UNC5142 utilizes a Python-based RAT named DeviceManager, delivered via ClickFix campaigns, leveraging Ethereum smart contracts for resilient C2 infrastructure resolution and DNS for communication.
