    Just a generic thread to inform boards users of Malware, Viruses, various threats to be aware of on Computers etc.

    This one is very current and MS I think are releasing a fix update for this.

    "APT group Void Banshee is exploiting CVE-2024-38112 to deploy the Atlantida info-stealer. This malicious payload is disguised as book PDFs, targeting users via cloud sites, Discord, and online libraries.

    The vulnerability CVE-2024-38112 (ZDI-CAN-24433) was used as a zero-day to access and execute files through the disabled Internet Explorer using MSHTML.

    As part of Void Banshee's attack chain, CVE-2024-38112 is being used to infect victim machines with the Atlantida info-stealer,
    which focuses on pilfering system information and sensitive data (like passwords and cookies) from various applications."

    This X tweet gives good info on same:

    The World is full of millions of vulnerabilities from all software vendors.

    You are going to have a long thread

    90% of those vulnerabilities will never be activated or used by hackers.
