Recently, CRIL identified a trojanized Super Mario Bros game installer that delivers multiple malicious components, including an XMR miner, SupremeBot mining client, and the Open-source Umbral stealer. Previously, Cyble Research and Intelligence Labs (CRIL) has discovered several malware campaigns that specifically target gamers and their game-related applications, including Enlisted, MSI Afterburner, FiveM Spoofer, and others. Malware distributed through game installers can be monetized through activities like stealing sensitive information, conducting ransomware attacks, and more.
