Disc Soft Limited, the maker of DAEMON Tools Lite, confirmed that the software had been trojanized in a supply chain attack and released a new, malware-free version.

“Within less than 12 hours of identifying the issue, we were able to implement a solution. Based on our current findings, the issue was limited to the free DAEMON Tools Lite version and did not affect any of our other products,” Disc Soft told BleepingComputer.

“We have not identified evidence supporting claims that all DAEMON Tools users were impacted, and at this stage, we are not in a position to confirm any impact on paid versions customers. Our current analysis indicates that DAEMON Tools Pro and DAEMON Tools Ultra were not affected and absolutely safe.”
