Magecart Adds Middle East Retailers to Long List of Victims

Researchers discovered Magecart web‑skimming code on Khaadi staging subdomains during an investigation into a broader skimming campaign; an Internet‑wide search identified roughly 1,800 potentially compromised sites. The report outlines regional statistics (Middle East & Africa account for <2% of compromised cards in 2023), attacker behavior (targeting third‑party components and plugins for scale), observed impacts (large numbers of stolen cards in some countries), and recommended defenses such as patching, CSPs, and script scanning.
