Up to a Quarter of Internet Connected Machines Could be Zombies

DumpBrowserSecrets is a post-exploitation credential-harvesting tool that extracts saved passwords, session cookies, OAuth refresh tokens, credit card numbers, autofill data, and browsing history from major Windows browsers (Chromium-based browsers and Firefox). It bypasses Chrome's App-Bound Encryption by spawning a headless Chromium process and injecting a DLL to call the IElevator COM interface, includes DPAPI and NSS decryption methods for other browsers, and implements evasion techniques such as string obfuscation, API hashing, PPID/argument spoofing, handle duplication, and a custom SQLite parser; output is structured JSON designed for red team use but directly enables cloud account takeover and lateral movement if used by adversaries.
