Malware called "JSCEAL" masquerades as a crypto app to implant Trojan viruses, potentially affecting over ten million people.

Security firm Check Point warns that malware called "JSCEAL," active since March 2024, has been impersonating nearly 50 popular crypto apps such as Binance, MetaMask, and Kraken to trick users into downloading trojan programs via advertising, potentially affecting over ten million people worldwide. The trojan uses JavaScript and has anti-detection mechanisms, allowing it to steal wallet information, account passwords, Telegram data, and browser cookies, mainly spreading through advertising on platforms such as Facebook.
