Sophisticated malware possibly tied to recent ATM heists in Thailand

Security researchers have found a sophisticated ATM malware program that may have been used recently by a gang of hackers to steal more than US$350,000 from ATMs in Thailand. A sample of the new malware, dubbed Ripper, was uploaded to the VirusTotal database from an Internet Protocol address in Thailand last week. The incident forced the state-owned Government Savings Bank to temporarily shut down all of its ATMs made by one vendor so they could be checked for malware. Ripper targets the same ATM brand as the one affected in Thailand, as well as two others.”]
