China-linked TA413 group target Tibetan organizations

The Chinese hacking group, tracked as TA413, used a malicious Firefox add-on in a cyberespionage campaign aimed at Tibetans. The attack chain begins with spear-phishing email messages that attempt to trick victims into visiting websites that asked them to install a Flash update to view the sites content.
