Korean cybercrime group known for its prolific espionage operations is
using QR codes to launch spear-phishing attacks against U.S. and foreign
government entities and other institutions.
The Pyongyang-backed actor Kimsuky
targeted nongovernmental organizations, think tanks, academia and
foreign policy experts by embedding malicious QR codes in phishing
emails in May and June, the bureau said in an alert on Thursday.Using this technique known as
quishing (QR code phishing), Kimsuky emailed a think tank head in May
and pretended to be a foreign advisor seeking insight on recent
developments on the Korean Peninsula, according to the advisory. The
phishing email provided a malicious QR code to scan for access to a
questionnaire.
The same month, the North Korean
cybercrime group impersonated an embassy employee and sent a senior
fellow at a DPRK human rights-focused think tank an email containing a
QR code, which allegedly provided access to a secure drive.
In another attack in May, Kimsuky
spoofed a think tank employee in an email with a QR code that redirected
users to Kimsuky-controlled cyberattack infrastructure. For years North Korea has targeted think tanks in the US and elsewhere.
