Sine, Cosine, and Cybercrime: Unraveling the Trigonometry of Lumma Stealer Malware

High school math just got sinister. The latest Lumma Stealer malware taps into trigonometry for advanced malware evasion techniques, using Euclidean vectors to determine its operator – human or sandbox. If the angles tilt over 45 degrees, it’s game over! So, who’s laughing at Pythagoras now?

Hot Take:

Remember when you thought you'd never use trigonometry in real life? Well, the hackers are here to prove you wrong. They've taken high school math and turned it into a tool for cybercrime. The latest version of Lumma Stealer malware is using Euclidean vectors and angles to tell if it's being run by a human or in a sandbox, thus avoiding detection. So, next time you're cursing Pythagoras, remember, it's not the math, it's how you use it!
