More than 800 corporate users have been infected in a new QBot malware distribution campaign since September 28, Kaspersky warns.
Also known as Qakbot and Pinkslipbot, QBot is an information stealer with backdoor and self-spreading capabilities that has been around since 2009 and which is often used as the initial infection vector in malicious attacks.
Earlier this year, QBot was distributed in attacks exploiting Follina, a Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT) vulnerability tracked as CVE-2022-30190, which leads to remote code execution.
