Lumma Stealer has emerged as a notable threat in cybercrime, focusing on collecting sensitive information such as passwords and financial data from users. It spreads primarily through phishing emails, malicious advertisements, and compromised websites that masquerade as legitimate software. Once installed, it can extract data from various web browsers, including Chrome and Firefox, targeting saved passwords and browsing history to maximize the value of its stolen information.
Trend Micro security researchers have noted that the malware employs browser fingerprinting to gather detailed device information and maintain covert communication with its command-and-control servers. The ability to create unique device profiles allows attackers to track infected machines effectively, enhancing the malware’s evasiveness against detection. Victims often remain unaware of their infection until they experience unauthorized transactions or compromised accounts, posing significant risks of identity theft and financial loss.
