"Kaspersky said the hacking of these specific computers implied a 'targeted' effort. The company said the targeted organizations are located in Russia, Belarus and Thailand."
"This is the latest in a string of so-called 'supply chain' attacks that have targeted developers of popular software in recent months."
"Hackers are increasingly taking aim at the accounts of developers who work on widely used code and software, and abusing that access to push malicious code to anyone who relies on the software."
Kaspersky has discovered a malicious backdoor in Daemon Tools, affecting thousands of Windows computers globally. The hackers, linked to a Chinese-speaking group, have targeted specific sectors including retail, scientific, and government systems in Russia, Belarus, and Thailand. The backdoor was first detected on April 8 and is part of an ongoing supply chain attack, allowing hackers to install further malware. Kaspersky has reached out to the software's developer, Disc Soft, but the attack remains active, posing a significant threat to users.
