Linux has become a popular target among cybercriminal groups, who have started infecting Linux machines via a fileless malware installation technique that until recently was more commonly used against Windows-based systems.
Linux malware authors are leveraging the Ezuri Golang crypter to pack their malware with dangerous zero detection capabilities.
The ElectroRAT cryptocurrency-stealing malware was written from scratch and was likely installed by thousands of Linux, Windows and MacOS users over the past year.
The Golang malware has been active since last month, exploiting poor security practices to target both Linux and Windows-based servers. Implementing 2FA with robust passwords and keeping all running software updated can help protect against Golang and other dangerous attacks.
Security researchers have discovered a new self-spreading Golang-based malware that has been actively dropping XMRig cryptocurrency miners on both Windows and Linux servers since early December.
