Botnets and Phishing Numbers Increasing Despite Crackdown

DumpBrowserSecrets is a publicly documented post‑exploitation tool that extracts browser‑stored credentials and tokens from Chromium‑based browsers (including App‑Bound Encryption bypass) and Firefox; the report details its architecture (an executable plus a DLL), DLL injection via Early Bird APC into a headless Chromium process to use the IElevator COM interface to decrypt app_bound_encrypted_key, the data types recovered (cookies, saved logins, OAuth tokens, credit cards, autofill, history), evasion techniques, an attack scenario, and detection/mitigation recommendations.
