New Attack Uses Fake Icon To Deliver Trojan

HealthcareInfoSecurity Compliance Twitter Email sample containing a .zipx attachment (Source: Trustwave) A new malware spam email campaign is delivering the NanoCore remote access Trojan as a malicious Adobe icon to infect its victims, a new report by security firm Trustwave finds. The campaign begins with the attackers sending an email with an attachment called NEW PURCHASE ORDER.pdf .zipx. The attachment is an Adobe image file in RAR format, which, when unzipped using WinRAR or 7-Zip, downloads the NanoCore Trojan onto the victims device. The motive behind the campaign is to hide the malicious executable from anti-malware and email scanners by abusing the file format of the .zipx attachment, which in this case is an Icon file with added surprises, the report notes.
