Researchers have identified a new malware named 'OtterCookie' being deployed by North Korean hackers, specifically targeting job seekers through deceptive interview tools. This JavaScript-based malware is designed to steal files and cryptocurrency wallets while maintaining communication with the attackers. The Lazarus Group, a notorious North Korean hacking outfit, is believed to be behind this campaign, which is now extending its focus to the nuclear power sector. Additionally, the account of the South Korean Ministry of Environment was compromised, resulting in a tweet proclaiming 'North Korea is the best Korea', highlighting the ongoing cyber threats from North Korean actors.
