Fancy Bear Linked to DealersChoice Attacks in Europe

Palo Alto Networks says Russia-linked Fancy Bear group is behind new exploit called DealersChoice. The new exploit leverages a Flash vulnerability in its operation but does so in a way that has not been seen before now. A spear-phishing email is first directed to the victim posing as the agenda to a legitimate security conference that is soon occurring in the UK. The malicious Flash object (covert-shores-small.png) is in the third page of the document and is only triggered if the victim views it.”]
