Looking for AI tools? RedLine Malware is being distributed by Rogue sites
As part of the BATLOADER Campaign, which is designed to deliver RedLine Stealer Malware, malicious Google Search Ads for generative AI Services like OpenAI ChatGPT or Midjourney have been used to redirect users to sketchy sites.
In an analysis, eSentire stated that both AI services were extremely popular but lacked first-party standalone applications (i.e. users interact with ChatGPT through their web interface whereas Midjourney uses Discord).
Threat actors have taken advantage of this vacuum to lure AI app seekers to fake web pages that promote fake apps.
Hackers use Google Search Ads to trick AI tool users into downloading malware.
