The Dark Caracal APT group has carried out a series of attacks against multiple sectors using a new variant of a 13-year-old backdoor Trojan.
The Dark Caracal cyberespionage group is back, researchers from Check Point uncovered a new series of attack against multiple industries.
The Dark Caracal is an APT group associated with the Lebanese General Directorate of General, in recent attacks it employed a new version of a 13-year-old backdoor Trojan dubbed Bandook.
The Bandook was spotted last time in 2015 and 2017 campaigns, dubbed “Operation Manul” and “Dark Caracal“, respectively attributed to Kazakh and the Lebanese governments. This circumstance suggests that the implant was developed by a third-party actor and used by multiple APT groups.
