科技巨头微软已向用户发出了关于新发现的恶意软件的严重警告，该恶意软件威胁了20个使用最广泛的加密货币钱包。

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.

发生的事情是：在周一的研究报告中，微软确定了一个名为Stilachirat的远程访问特洛伊木马，该校友可以逃避检测，保持其在目标环境中的存在以及提取敏感数据。恶意软件针对一些最受欢迎的钱包，例如metamask，Coinbase（NASDAQ：COIN）钱包和Binance BNB/USD拥有的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补充说，特洛伊木马能够在11月确定，能够在其Google Chrome浏览器中存储的用户钱包细节和其他凭据，包括用户名和密码。

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

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

这是如此重要的是：微软的这一警告是随着加密货币部门继续受到网络安全威胁而困扰的。

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.

上个月，关于加密货币交易所交换的报告可能会妥协其多智钱包提供商的安全，这可能有助于盗窃14亿美元的以太坊ETH/USD的盗窃案，并已出现，并在整个行业中派发了冲击波。 Bybit创始人周表示，这次攻击专门针对Bybit的Ethereum Cold Wallet。

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

根据链分析，尽管抢劫巨大，但在2024年，加密货币犯罪也有所下降。

"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.

该报告强调：“尽管Bybit的多智钱包盗窃和勒索软件的使用越来越多，但与上一年相比，2024年的总体加密货币犯罪率下降了65％。”

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

该报告进一步指出，与2023年相比，区块链安全公司回收的加密货币的总价值也下降了。

"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.

报告补充说：“尽管盗窃了十亿美元的加密货币，但被盗资金的收回是区块链安全公司提供的一项至关重要的服务。2024年，我们观察到与上一年相比，这些公司收回的加密货币总价值下降了。”
