The latest version of financial Trojan TrickBot adds a new trick: stealth code injection through Word documents. The TrickBot malware first emerged in 2016 and has been used in North American and European banking attacks at the beginning of August. Once initiated, the malware sleeps for 30 seconds and then runs an obfuscated script to download and execute TrickBot. Once up and running, TrickBot goes after browser and Microsoft Outlook data, gathers system and network information, steals domain credentials, and can prevent victims from accessing their computers.”]
