Russian Hackers Bypass EDR to Deliver a Weaponized TeamViewer Component

Threat actors target TeamViewer for their illicit purposes because it is a widely used remote desktop software with potential security weaknesses.  Exploiting vulnerabilities in TeamViewer can provide unauthorized access to systems and sensitive data, enabling cybercriminals to carry out various malicious activities, such as data theft, financial fraud, or even using compromised systems to launch attacks on other targets. In late 2022, QiAnXin Threat Intelligence Center identified a new threat actor group using fake software download sites with manipulated search rankings to distribute unofficial but seemingly valid installation packages created with Inno Setup.
