Zero Day Exploit Advisory

Overview:

This is a general advisory regarding a zero-day infection which is spreading currently which we have received from our sources of information. Here the attacker is using a Trojan as a medium to perform recon activity on system & retrieves the system information and sends it to a CNC hosted in AWS. A zero day exploit is a cyber attack that occurs on the same day a weakness is discovered in software. It's exploited before a fix becomes available from its creator. Usually the program creators are quick to create a fix that improves program protection, however, sometimes hackers hear about the flaw first and are quick to exploit it. Hence, the zero day exploits are vulnerable until a fix is released against them by the concerned team so as to block that particular loophole or backdoor. It is advised to the users to perform full scan of the system and up to date all the systems with latest antivirus signature.
