Zero Day Telegram Vulnerability Exploited by Hackers for Cryptomining
The Telegram vulnerability involves the use of an RLO (right-to-left override) attack when the user sends a file through the messenger.
The attacks enabled cybercriminals to not just spread the cryptomining malware but also to install a backdoor to remotely control victims’ computers.
“We don’t have exact information about how long and which versions of the Telegram products were affected by the vulnerability. What we do know is that its exploitation in Windows clients began in March 2017,” read the report Kaspersky published on the flaw.
