While the malware was detected by the security team, the device was replaced, and all affected credentials rotated, \u201cEngineer A\u2019s role and his related colleagues on our wallet infrastructure team was exposed to the hacker,\u201d the report says.<\/p>\n<p>Three months later, the social engineering part of the attack happened.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In September, another software engineer was contacted via a \u201clegitimate job-hunting platform\u201d by someone purporting to be a project director who arranged a series of job interviews for the Binance engineer with the fake company. During the first round &#8211; a live video interview with the engineer and a fake HR rep &#8211; the interviewer \u201cshared a social media account with him, including personal photos and videos posted on the platform, in order to build trust,\u201d according to the report. \u201cThis was more advanced and deceptive than previously seen social engineering approaches.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The second interview with someone purporting to be the CEO of the phony company was conducted on a \u201cpopular social chat app,\u201d and toward the end, the CEO instructed the engineer to download an \u201cassignment\u201d containing a malware-laced code repository. The code executed on his work computer during the setup process, which kicked off a series of unauthorized activities.<\/p>\n<p>According to Binance, the malware replaced a legitimate development tool component with a malicious version, which executed commands and established communication with an attacker-controlled external server. The attackers also took steps to hide the malicious script and evade detection, and it worked. Binance\u2019s endpoint security tools did not immediately detect the malware.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the script:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"font-RobotoMono \" data-lab-fontface=\"RobotoMono\">CREATE&nbsp; \/opt\/homebrew\/Cellar\/pyenv\/2.8.0\/libexec\/pyenv_&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"font-RobotoMono \" data-lab-fontface=\"RobotoMono\">MODIFY&nbsp; pyenv_ \u2192 3,414 B&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"font-RobotoMono \" data-lab-fontface=\"RobotoMono\">DELETE&nbsp; &#8230;\/libexec\/pyenv&nbsp; (3,344 B)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; \u2190 remove the valid pyenv<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"font-RobotoMono \" data-lab-fontface=\"RobotoMono\">RENAME&nbsp; pyenv_ \u2192 pyenv&nbsp; (3,414 B)&nbsp; \u2190 replace it with a malicious version <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"font-RobotoMono \" data-lab-fontface=\"RobotoMono\">DELETE&nbsp; \/opt\/homebrew\/bin\/pyenv&nbsp; (3,414 B)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"font-RobotoMono \" data-lab-fontface=\"RobotoMono\">ln&nbsp; (create a new symlink)&nbsp; +&nbsp; spawn zsh<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Then, on October 20, the miscreants used the compromised computer and an internal AI tool to gain access to the computers of wallet DevOps engineer A and another wallet software developer, Engineer C.<\/p>\n<p>Engineer A had a container deployment permission token on his computer, which the Norks soon discovered. On October 29, the attacker accessed Engineer C&#8217;s computer, used the stolen credentials from Engineer A to deploy a container, and triggered a script to launch the cryptocurrency-stealing attack.<\/p>\n<p>As of Tuesday, Binance said it has rebuilt the compromised wallet system and internal AI tool, and replaced all of the affected devices. It also decommissioned all credentials and tokens assigned to the compromised engineers, and is working with law enforcement, blockchain intel firms, and security researchers to trace and freeze the assets.<\/p>\n<p>The crypto exchange has also hired independent cybersecurity experts to conduct a cybersecurity review of the incident, and recommend additional protective measures. Binance said it\u2019s also working to establish a security research fund and initiatives with AI companies and security shops to focus on AI security in blockchain environments.\u00ae<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/image.theregister.com\/?imageId=254036&#038;width=800\">READ MORE <a
