An Internet Explorer zero-day vulnerability has been discovered used in recent North Korean attacks against security and vulnerability researchers. South Korean cybersecurity firm ENKI reported that Lazarus targeted security researchers on their team with MHT files in this social engineering campaign. The MHT file sent to ENKI contained what was allegedly a Chrome 85 RCE exploit and was named ‘Chrome_85_RCE_Exploit_Code.mht’ ENKI said they have reported the bug to Microsoft and were later contacted by a Microsoft employee requesting more information.
