Hot Take:

When it comes to cybersecurity, you might say SonicWall users are getting an “extender” lesson in who not to trust. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, but asks for your credentials, maybe it’s time to quack off and do some due diligence.

Key Points:

  • Miscreants are distributing a fake version of SonicWall’s VPN application to steal user credentials.
  • The fraudulent app is digitally signed with a fake certificate from “CITYLIGHT MEDIA PRIVATE LIMITED”.
  • The fake app sends user information to a remote server controlled by the attackers.
  • SonicWall and Microsoft have taken down the spoofed websites and revoked the fake certificate.
  • Users are advised to download apps only from trusted sources, like the vendor’s official site.
