A campaign known as StaryDobry, identified by Kaspersky Lab, began on the last day of 2024, targeting users of popular torrent trackers during the holiday season. The attack affected users globally, particularly in Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Germany, and Brazil. Cybercriminals distributed trojanized versions of popular games like BeamNG.drive and Garry’s Mod, which contained hidden cryptocurrency mining software. The malware used in this campaign included XMRig, designed for mining Monero (XMR) without user consent. The installation process involved multiple layers of evasion, including checking for debugging tools and system parameters. The malware extracted files using RAR libraries, sent system fingerprints to a command server, and launched a loader that disguised itself as system files. XMRig operated in the background, utilizing the victim's CPU for mining while avoiding detection by terminating itself if analysis tools were present. The attack poses risks not only to individual users but also to corporate systems through compromised devices. No information is available about the attackers behind this campaign.
