Interesting bit of malware in a Cities Skylines 2 mod

[Chaotic42]

I'm not an expert in the field, but I found this pretty interesting. It's a backdoor in a mod to try and find your crypto wallet. I would assume it's in all sorts of different mods - seems like a lot of work for one game. I try to make sure I only game on my gaming system so that if it gets compromised, it's not the end of the world. Definitely some neat forensic work by these folks.

That was a fun watch. The signature avoidance stuff was great. Its an arms race isn't it, the cloud tool he was using to run the malware and get what looked like a call stack from it was very cool, didn't know that existed. The better the tools get the harder it is to hide and the more clever the malware authors have to be.
