U.S. banks targeted by resurgent malware threat

Over 30 US banks have been targeted by Xenomorph malware, according to a recent advisory by Threat Fabric. Xenomorph, identified in February 2020, uses deceptive phishing pages disguised as a Chrome update to trick victims into downloading malicious Android package kits. Previously active mainly in Europe, the recent campaign is a geographic expansion with thousands of downloads in the US.
