‼️ Breaking: First-ever Zero-Click Mercenary Spyware Delivered via Targeted Ads
Details: cybersecuritynews.com/0-clic…
Simply viewing an online advertisement can be enough to infect a device with powerful spyware, without the user clicking, downloading a file, or seeing any warning.
Citizen Lab researchers documented what they call the first public technical proof of zero-click mercenary spyware delivered through targeted ads.
The method, named “AdFection,” infected devices at international news network Al Jazeera with spyware linked to Israeli vendor Candiru, which now operates as Integrity Labs. For users and organizations, the case shows that careful clicking alone cannot stop every infection.

Red flags to watch for:
• Unfamiliar recruiting domains
• Requests for your Facebook password to schedule an interview
• Login pop-ups with fake browser address bars
• Unexpected requests for 2FA codes or sign-in approvals
Verify recruiters through official channels.

The phishing pages send your credentials and 2FA codes to attackers in real time.
Normally 2FA stops these types of attacks. But if the victim hands over the codes, the attackers can log in to your accounts while you interact with the fake page.
3/🧵

We discovered fake “Meta Careers” interview pages that are stealing Facebook and Google logins.
