Zscaler ThreatLabz describes a surge of opportunistic cyber activity exploiting the Middle East conflict, documenting multiple cases: a CHM/LNK-based shellcode loader and PDF lure, LOTUSLITE backdoor delivered via DLL sideloading (linked to Mustang Panda), StealC distribution through fake news sites, fraudulent government/payment portals that push RMM or harvest credentials, donation and storefront scams, and meme-coin pump-and-dump promotions. The report includes technical analysis, IOCs (hashes, domains, a C2 IP), and defensive recommendations for reducing risk.
