"New Fakext Malware Targets Latin American Banks"

In November 2023, security researchers at IBM Security Trusteer discovered malware called "Fakext," which uses a malicious Edge extension to execute man-in-the-browser and web-injection attacks. Since early November 2023, researchers have seen over 35,000 infected sessions, most of which are in Latin America (LATAM), with a smaller number in Europe and North America.
