Hackers Compromise Organization to Swap Crypto Wallet Address In A Supply Chain Attack

Threat actors exploited a JavaScript file offered by advertising technology firm Adform, and modified it into a browser-side tool that rewrites crypto wallet addresses. Malicious script Adform found the incident and removed the malicious code, informed the impacted clients, and notified the authorities. For users who visited a website carrying the modified script on July 27 and copied Ethereum, Tron, or Bitcoin may have deployed malicious code by pasting the a different address.What should the users do? Adform has advised users to clean their browser cache as the modified file may stay cached after the fix, and to also double-check any wallet address before sending any money. According to Adform, the code was not built to deploy software or create persistence and worked only when an affected page stayed open. Clipboard copying was not the only method of replacement; the captured sample also rewrites addresses entered straight into form fields.  According to Adform’s implementation document, the tracking code can run across a website, several sections, or even a single page. Exploiting the shared resource allowed the hackers a path into downstream websites without having to hack each one of them. Supply chain compromise happened due to the shared deployment path.  Shared path leading to supply chain attack One modified address at the point of payment could change a transfer, as the impacted page stayed open. Security expert Beaumont discovered the hack and said, "Even if you notice the address is wrong and recopy the wallet, it keeps replacing it.” Beaumont also said that “this allows end user devices of downstream websites to be compromised with crypto stealing malware. Meaning if you visit example.com and they use Adform, example.com will compromise your device.” The file and linked domains, IP addresses, and URLs showed no detections on VirusTotal at the time.  The discovered sample consists of two malicious blocks attached to the authentic library. Their replacement strings are hidden with a six-byte XOR key. The first looks out for the copy event, attempts to read the clipboard every four seconds, and to replace matching addresses. The second block rewrites values in textarea, contenteditable elements, and input, and restores the cursor point after a rewrite. “Based on our investigation to date, we have found no evidence that the malicious code transmitted users’ IP addresses or information about the websites they visited to an external party. Technical analysis indicates that such transmission may have been possible, and this aspect remains under investigation,” says Adform.
