Code from the Seasalt malware that was last seen in 2010 has been found in new campaigns in North Korea and North America. Operation Seasalt targeted more than 140 US companies over a four-year period, researchers say. The attacks could be a precursor to a larger threat of Oceansalt, they say.

The code reuse is normal practice, but as far as McAfee researchers can tell, the source code never made public.”]
