Hackers Use Route Flaw to Spread Malware
The attack on the "Virtualyzer" program occurred through a BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) bridge hijacking between August 28 and 30. The attackers redirected data traffic to malicious servers, which allowed them to upload and distribute malicious updates to a limited number of servers. The developer company, "Softakolos," warned that this attack resulted in the delivery of harmful updates to certain systems, emphasizing that it did not broadly affect all users. Recommendations include checking for a suspicious service named "/etc/systemd/system/java-jre-update.service," changing credentials, reviewing unauthorized activities, and strengthening the security of accounts and sensitive information.
