Windows users are being warned about a newly discovered threat that could give hackers full access to web history and passwords.

A recent report from a research and intelligence firm reveals that the Super Mario Forever remake from Buziol Games contains heavy malware.

That Super Mario game could have installed a cryptominer - and worse

The threat actors took advantage of a general trust in video game installers to mine crypto and steal data.

“It’s-a-me, malware!” A long-running fan game based on Nintendo’s iconic plumber is reportedly also an attack vector for scammers.

A legitimate installer for the popular Nintendo game infects Windows machines with various malware, including a cryptominer and an infostealer, again showcasing the importance of remote worker security hygiene.

Cyble researchers say the Python security teams took down the malicious packages within 48 hours, so the impact may have been minimal.

Personal details, PIN numbers and account information of hundreds of customers was stolen between February and March.

The threat actor also offers additional services such as a web panel for managing victims, meta mask brute-forcing to steal seed and private keys, a crypto checker, and a dmg installer, after which the logs are shared via Telegram.

Threat actors are selling a new malware called - Atomic macOS Stealer (AMOS) on the Telegram channel to target macOS platforms, which is capable of extracting autofill information, passwords, wallets, and more.
