WebRAT malware spread via fake vulnerability exploits on GitHub

The WebRAT malware is now being distributed through GitHub repositories that claim to host proof-of-concept exploits for recently disclosed vulnerabilities.

Previously spread through pirated software and cheats for games like Roblox, Counter Strike, and Rust, WebRAT is a backdoor with info-stealing capabilities that emerged at the beginning of the year.

According to a report from Solar 4RAYS in May, WebRAT can steal credentials for Steam, Discord, and Telegram accounts, as well as cryptocurrency wallet data. It can also spy on victims through webcams and capture screenshots.
