"ChatGPT and Google Bard Abused to Steal Passwords"

Cybercriminals are exploiting the popularity of ChatGPT and Google Bard to spread RedLine Stealer malware and steal sensitive user data. According to Veriti security researchers, one of the most significant concerns associated with generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) platforms is the ability to bundle the AI in a file, enabling malicious actors to trick unsuspecting downloaders. Hackers could steal personal data, take over financial accounts, or disrupt critical infrastructure by tricking a victim into installing a malicious file. Attackers are hijacking high-profile Facebook business or community pages with thousands of followers and using them to push free downloads of fake ChatGPT and Google Bard-related files. After the user downloads and extracts the file, the RedLine Stealer malware is launched, stealing credentials and downloading additional malware onto the user's device. RedLine Stealer is a type of Malware-as-a-Service (MaaS) available for purchase on the dark web for around $100 to $150, either as a one-time purchase or as a monthly subscription. This article continues to discuss cybercriminals using the popularity of ChatGPT and Google Bard to distribute RedLine Stealer malware.
