The AB Stealer is a threat that is used to collect the victims' passwords and other information. The AB Stealer is used to collect information and belongs to a large category of threats that carry out these attacks. The AB Stealer has been around for a while, and traces of the AB Stealer have existed since April 2016. Since its first appearance, the AB Stealer has been updated regularly. Malware analysts have not determined who is responsible for developing and releasing the AB Stealer exactly, but it seems that their primary language is Arabic and that the AB Stealer is being distributed on the Dark Web as a threat builder. The AB Stealer features a Web panel that is relatively simple to use and has been released in various custom versions since its initial release. PC security researchers consider that threats like the AB Stealer represent a real danger to the victims' data and information, and steps should be taken immediately if they suspect that their computers have become infected with a threat like the AB Stealer.
Using the Alphabet to Name a Harmful Scheme
The AB Stealer, although simple, seems to have all of the advanced features that have been seen in more sophisticated information collecting Trojans. The AB Stealer is installed by cybercrooks that use various techniques to hack into the victims' computers. The AB Stealer uses a keylogger component to keep track of the victim's activity on the infected computer. The AB Stealer will inject a bad code onto the victim's computer that allows the AB Stealer to collect passwords for online banks and secure websites. The AB Stealer will take screenshots of the infected computer and send them to a remote location and can run even with limited privileges on the infected computer. The AB Stealer also can extract passwords saved in the most commonly used Web browsers on the Windows operating system.
Additional Details about the AB Stealer and Its Attack
Rather than having the AB Stealer's Command and Control servers on a specific location, criminals will use compromised websites and servers as the AB Stealer's Command and Control servers. After taking advantage of various vulnerabilities, such as weak RDP accounts, the cybercrooks can turn any computer into a Command and Control server virtually, allowing them to avoid detection and being tracked down by the people responsible for the AB Stealer attack. To prevent these attacks, PC security researchers advise computer users to avoid spam email messages, ensure that all software and website platforms are fully updated, and install a strong security program. According to reports from the AB Stealer's developers themselves, the following are the characteristics of the AB Stealer itself, as well as how it is detected by 35 different anti-virus programs on the market:
