Unveiling Alchimist Attack Framework: Cross-Platform Threat Discovery

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new attack and C2 framework called 'Alchimist,' which appears to be actively used in attacks targeting Windows, Linux, and macOS systems.

The framework and all its files are 64-bit executables written in GoLang, a programming language that makes cross-compatibility between different operating systems a lot easier.

Alchimist offers a web-based interface using the Simplified Chinese language, and it's very similar to Manjusaka, a recently-emerged post-exploitation attack framework growing popular among Chinese hackers.
