CYFIRMA Research- DeerStealer Malware Campaign: Stealth, Persistence, and Rootkit-Like Capabilities

Malware Alert: New DeerStealer Campaign

A new variant of sophisticated information-stealing malware, DeerStealer, has been identified targeting personal and financial data across infected systems. Using signed binaries, rootkit-like techniques, and deceptive installers (like Adobe Acrobat Reader), it evades detection while maintaining persistence via scheduled tasks.
 
Key highlights:

• Steals system info, credentials, crypto wallets, browser & app data.
• Uses obfuscated files and hidden components for stealth.
• Communicates with C2 servers and can switch servers to avoid detection.
• Sold and supported on dark-web forums and Telegram channels.
• Stay vigilant! Always verify downloads and keep security tools updated.
