News Wrap: Microsoft Sway Phish, Malicious GIF and Spyware Attacks
Threatpost editors Tom Spring, Tara Seals and Lindsey O'Donnell-Welch talk about the biggest news stories of the week ended May 1, including: A "PhantomLance" espionage campaign discovered targeting specific Android victims, mainly in Southeast Asia — which could be the work of the OceanLotus APT. A highly targeted phishing campaign, uncovered this week, with a Microsoft file platform twist, that successfully siphoned the Office 365 credentials of more than 150 executives since mid-2019. A Microsoft vulnerability found in Microsoft Teams that could have allowed an inside attacker to weaponize a single GIF image and use it to pilfer data from targeted systems and take over all of an organization's Teams accounts.
