The Unusual Suspect: Git Repos

🚨 A fake CAPTCHA is all it takes. Interlock ransomware is back—now pushing a stealthy PHP RAT via “FileFix,” a spin on ClickFix that hijacks File Explorer sessions. This isn’t your grandma’s malware—it’s a slick, targeted attack leveraging Git repos as its delivery mechanism.
The attack starts with a fake CAPTCHA prompt—because who doesn’t hate CAPTCHAs? Once you bite, it drops a PHP remote access trojan (RAT) that’s as stealthy as a ninja in a library. The kicker? It’s all delivered through compromised Git repositories, turning your code storage into a malware distribution center.

This isn’t your grandma’s malware—it’s a slick, targeted attack leveraging Git repos as its delivery mechanism.

  • Fake CAPTCHA prompts initiate the attack.
  • Drops a stealthy PHP RAT named “FileFix”.
  • Hijacks File Explorer sessions for maximum damage.
  • Uses compromised Git repositories for distribution.
The moral of the story? Always verify your CAPTCHAs, and maybe give your Git repos a security check-up. Because in 2025, even your code storage isn’t safe from the dark side.
