Malware Discord adalah ancaman yang terus-menerus dan terus berkembang, Sophos memperingatkan

August 13, 2021 by Winnie the Pooh

Beberapa minggu yang lalu, perusahaan keamanan siber terkemuka Sophos mengeluarkan peringatan bahwa Discord menjadi target yang semakin umum bagi peretas.

Beberapa aktor siber yang mendorong keluar malware cenderung menargetkan pengguna layanan online yang sukses, dan mempertimbangkan 140 juta plus pengguna aktif Discord — dengan lebih dari 300 juta terdaftar hingga saat ini — yang menjadikan perangkat lunak obrolan sebagai target yang cukup menarik.

Sophos mencatat jumlah deteksi malware selama beberapa bulan terakhir telah meningkat hampir 140 kali lipat dari periode yang sama tahun lalu. Dan sebagian dari masalah itu bermuara pada bagaimana file Discord disimpan di cloud.

“Setelah file diunggah ke Discord, mereka dapat bertahan tanpa batas waktu kecuali jika dilaporkan atau dihapus,” kata laporan itu.

Dalam penelitiannya tentang jenis malware yang mengotori penyimpanan cloud Discord, Sophos menemukan banyak alat game cheating. Beberapa dimaksudkan untuk mengeksploitasi protokol integrasi Discord untuk merusak permainan lawan, dan beberapa diiklankan sebagai ‘penyempurnaan’ yang dimaksudkan untuk membuka kunci konten berbayar, kunci, dan bypass. Maksud sebenarnya adalah bahwa hanya sedikit yang ditemukan mengandung perangkat lunak cheating yang dimaksud, sebagian besar sebenarnya adalah beberapa bentuk pencurian kredensial yang menyamar.

Di antara cheat-bait, kejahatan lain menyelinap tanpa terdeteksi: keluarga malware pembajak kata sandi, spyware, aplikasi android palsu yang dimaksudkan untuk menangkap info keuangan atau mencegat transaksi.

Sophos menjelaskan, “Aktor ancaman di balik operasi ini menggunakan rekayasa sosial untuk menyebarkan malware pencuri kredensial, kemudian menggunakan kredensial Discord yang diambil korban untuk menargetkan pengguna Discord tambahan.”
