技術龐然大物Microsoft向用戶提醒了新發現的惡意軟件，該惡意軟件威脅了20個使用最廣泛的加密貨幣錢包。

Tech giant Microsoft has issued a stark warning to users about a newly discovered malware that threatens 20 of the most widely used cryptocurrency wallets.

科技巨頭微軟已向用戶發出了關於新發現的惡意軟件的嚴重警告，該惡意軟件威脅了20個使用最廣泛的加密貨幣錢包。

What Happened: In a Monday research report, Microsoft identified a remote access trojan named StilachiRAT that could evade detection, maintain its presence in the target environment, and extract sensitive data. The malware targets some of the most popular wallets, such as MetaMask, Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) Wallet, and Binance BNB/USD-owned Trust Wallet.

發生的事情是：在周一的研究報告中，微軟確定了一個名為Stilachirat的遠程訪問特洛伊木馬，該校友可以逃避檢測，保持其在目標環境中的存在以及提取敏感數據。惡意軟件針對一些最受歡迎的錢包，例如metamask，Coinbase（NASDAQ：COIN）錢包和Binance BNB/USD擁有的Trust Wallet。

First identified in November, the trojan is capable of pilfering users' wallet details and other credentials, including usernames and passwords, stored in their Google Chrome browser, Microsoft added.

Microsoft補充說，特洛伊木馬能夠在11月確定，能夠在其Google Chrome瀏覽器中存儲的用戶錢包細節和其他憑據，包括用戶名和密碼。

The company suggested some mitigation measures, including the recommendation to download any software only from the official website and install antivirus software.

該公司建議採取一些緩解措施，包括建議僅從官方網站下載任何軟件並安裝防病毒軟件。

MetaMask also acknowledged Microsoft's findings and urged users to take necessary precautions.

Metamask還確認了微軟的發現，並敦促用戶採取必要的預防措施。

Why It Matters: This warning from Microsoft comes as the cryptocurrency sector continues to be plagued by cybersecurity threats.

這是如此重要的是：微軟的這一警告是隨著加密貨幣部門繼續受到網絡安全威脅而困擾的。

Last month, reports of cryptocurrency exchange Bybit's potential compromise of its multi-sig wallet provider Safe, which may have facilitated the theft of $1.4 billion in Ethereum ETH/USD, emerged, sending shockwaves across the sector. Bybit founder Zhou stated that the attack specifically targeted Bybit's Ethereum cold wallet.

上個月，關於加密貨幣交易所交換的報告可能會妥協其多智錢包提供商的安全，這可能有助於盜竊14億美元的以太坊ETH/USD的盜竊案，並已出現，並在整個行業中派發了衝擊波。 Bybit創始人周表示，這次攻擊專門針對Bybit的Ethereum Cold Wallet。

According to Chainalysis, cryptocurrency crime decreased in 2024 despite the massive heist.

根據鏈分析，儘管搶劫巨大，但在2024年，加密貨幣犯罪也有所下降。

"Despite the large-scale theft from Bybit's multi-sig wallet and the increasing use of ransomware, overall cryptocurrency crime fell by 65% in 2024 compared to the previous year," the report highlighted.

該報告強調：“儘管Bybit的多智錢包盜竊和勒索軟件的使用越來越多，但與上一年相比，2024年的總體加密貨幣犯罪率下降了65％。”

The report further noted that the total value of cryptocurrency recovered by blockchain security firms also decreased in 2024 compared to 2023.

該報告進一步指出，與2023年相比，區塊鏈安全公司回收的加密貨幣的總價值也下降了。

"Although less attention-grabbing than the theft of billions of dollars in cryptocurrency, the recovery of stolen funds is a crucial service provided by blockchain security firms. In 2024, we observed a decrease in the total value of cryptocurrency recovered by these firms compared to the previous year," the report added.

報告補充說：“儘管盜竊了十億美元的加密貨幣，但被盜資金的收回是區塊鏈安全公司提供的一項至關重要的服務。2024年，我們觀察到與上一年相比，這些公司收回的加密貨幣總價值下降了。”

Price Action: Shares of Coinbase Global Inc. COIN closed 4.14% lower at $181.14 during Tuesday's regular session, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
