FIN7 Hackers’ BIOLOAD Malware Drops Fresher Carbanak Backdoor

Malware researchers have uncovered a new tool used by the FIN7 cybercriminal group to load fresher builds of the Carbanak backdoor. Called BIOLOAD, the malware loader has a low detection rate and shares similarities with BOOSTWRITE, another loader recently identified to be part of FIN7’s arsenal. The malware relies on a technique called binary planting that abuses a method used by Windows to search for DLLs required to load into a program. An attacker can thus increase privileges on the system or achieve persistence.
