Fake Gemini installer delivers Vidar infostealer via Google Colab lure
Attackers used a fake Google Gemini installer hosted on Google Colab to deliver a Go-compiled Vidar infostealer that stole browser credentials from an EMEA company.
Darktrace investigated an EMEA company infection where the top search result for a Gemini-related filename pointed to a Google Colab page that redirected to a fake 'Windows Software Hub' hosting a malicious executable. The ZIP contained a README instructing victims to run the file as administrator and add it to antivirus exceptions, delivering a newer Go-compiled Vidar variant that used dtm[.]kijangturbo88[.]top over Telegram-based infrastructure. The malware stole browser credentials and other sensitive data; Darktrace's Autonomous Response blocked the C2 and quarantined the device.

Infostealers Target Claude, Cursor, Codex and Other AI Agents to Steal Credentials and Sensitive Data
Gen Digital researchers report infostealer families Amatera, Remus and CallbackBeaver now harvest Claude, Cursor and Codex agent data, including tokens and MCP configs.
Gen Digital researchers found commodity infostealers extending their collection rules to local AI coding agent data from Claude, Cursor, Codex, Cline, Continue and OpenCode on Windows and macOS. Amatera targets Cline and Continue, Remus targets Claude, Cursor and OpenCode, and CallbackBeaver added Claude and Cursor with more than 5,000 samples observed in 30 days; Djinn Stealer hits Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cline, OpenCode and Kilo on macOS. Stolen data includes access and refresh tokens, prompt histories, conversation databases and MCP configurations holding API keys, potentially exposing connected source-control, cloud and ticketing systems. Remus is assessed as a Lumma Stealer variant using EtherHiding C2 resolution via Ethereum smart contracts.

Chinese-Speaking Hackers Use Noodle RAT Backdoor to Spy on Windows and Linux Systems
Chinese-speaking actors use cross-platform Noodle RAT backdoor to maintain covert access to Windows and Linux systems across Asia-Pacific.
Noodle RAT (also ANGYREBEL/Nood RAT) has been active since at least mid-2016 and was long misidentified as Gh0st RAT or Rekoobe variants until Trend Micro and Cyberint classified it as a distinct multi-platform family. The Windows build (Win.NOODLERAT) is an in-memory modular shellcode backdoor delivered via MULTIDROP and MICROLOAD loaders, while the Linux build supports reverse shells, SOCKS tunneling, and cron persistence after web shell or public-facing service exploitation. It has appeared in intrusions in Thailand, India, Japan, Malaysia, and Taiwan and is linked to Iron Tiger, Calypso APT, Rocke, and Cloud Snooper campaigns spanning espionage and cybercrime. Recently discovered Linux builders 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 indicate the toolkit remains actively maintained.
