Report: malicious software masquerading as Office add-ons to attack cryptocurrency users
Kaspersky reports that a dangerous malicious software is posing as a Microsoft Office add-on on the SourceForge platform to specifically target cryptocurrency users. The malicious software uses clipboard hijacking technology to automatically replace the user's copied crypto wallet address with the attacker's address, resulting in funds being transferred directly to the hacker's account. Security experts remind users to carefully check the wallet address when conducting cryptocurrency transactions to ensure transaction security.
