Sophisticated Info-Stealer Targets Air-Gapped Devices via USB

Cycldek APT group has added a previously unknown malware dubbed USBCulprit to its arsenal. The newly discovered malware is part of the arsenal of an APT known as CyCldek, which targets government entities in Southeast Asia. It has been deployed against targets in Vietnam, Thailand and Laos, Kaspersky says. The malware is implanted as a side-loaded DLL of legitimate, signed applications.
