New Phishing Attack Creates Malicious Pages Inside the Victim’s Browser

Barracuda details a phishing campaign that renders pages in-browser via blob URLs, routed through Microsoft Teams and cdn.bloom[.]io to evade detection.

Barracuda researchers analyzed a phishing campaign that generates a blob URL to render the phishing page entirely inside the victim's browser, leaving no static page for scanners to inspect. The chain begins with a Docusign-themed email containing a calendar invite, followed by a crafted redirect through Microsoft Teams to a resource on cdn.bloom[.]io that the browser converts into the blob URL. Service workers, iframes, and a hidden command-and-control configuration indicate the page is part of a centrally managed phishing platform that can be updated and steered across victims. Researchers recommend inspecting blob URL activity, monitoring OAuth authorization flows, and analyzing the full click path in email security controls.

Phishing Attacks Serve Browser-in-the-Browser Pages, Rogue RMM Persistence

Phishing emails with browser-in-the-browser fake Adobe pages trick users into installing rogue ScreenConnect clients granting persistent remote access.

Huntress SOC investigated two August incidents where phishing links led to fake CAPTCHA checks and Adobe PDF Reader lures rendered as browser-in-the-browser (BiTB) pages spoofing legitimate domains like get.adobe.com. Victims downloaded what they believed was Acrobat Reader but actually installed ScreenConnect.ClientSetup.exe from attacker infrastructure, yielding two rogue ScreenConnect clients with service-based persistence. The attacker used cmd.exe and curl to stage a second client connecting to 144.172.115.59, leveraged a ScreenConnect Trial Relay domain for stealth, and ran HideCursor.exe as a defense-evasion binary. Incident 2 arrived via AT&T Office@Hand (RingCentral), with both chains stopped before broader impact.

Fake GTA 6 leaked copy drains your crypto wallet

A fake GTA 6 leaked-copy website loads a multi-chain crypto wallet drainer that sweeps Solana balances and can steal assets across seven blockchain networks.

A fake Grand Theft Auto VI countdown site offers a supposed leaked copy for $50 or 1 SOL and loads a wallet drainer on page visit. An embedded Solana script transfers nearly the entire wallet balance, while a separate 2.4 MB script built on a legitimate wallet-connector tool targets wallets on Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Smart Chain, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Base, and Fantom, including stablecoins and NFT collections. The drainer geo-blocks CIS countries via a CIS_Protection setting, profiles visitor holdings, and evades automated scanners, suggesting a rented drainer-as-a-service.
