Trump Cryptocurrency Delivers ConnectWise RAT
An email campaign impersonating Binance is offering fake TRUMP coins to lure victims into downloading a malicious 'Binance Desktop' application, which actually installs ConnectWise RAT. The attackers have created a convincing web page mimicking Binance's interface to host the malware download. Once infected, threat actors quickly establish remote control of the victim's computer, targeting saved passwords in applications like Microsoft Edge. The campaign employs sophisticated social engineering tactics, including sender name spoofing and risk warnings, to appear legitimate. Threat actors are actively monitoring infections and can connect to compromised systems within minutes of installation.

The #OpenWebCalendar has a new #UI!
You can head over to https://open-web-calendar.hosted.quelltext.eu and try it out:
- #edit the #calendar AND see it updating
- #encryption protects #private calendars and the #password

I then went onto mastodon in #firefox, and in my profile confirmed that my listed email and password are EXACTLY what I tried to sign in.
If you want people to give up firefox, it would help if the few of us NOT code wizards could use the alternatives.
