Research Saturday
Today we are joined by Crystal Morin, Cybersecurity Strategist from Sysdig, as she is sharing their work on "UNC5174’s evolution in China’s ongoing cyber warfare: From SNOWLIGHT to VShell." UNC5174, a Chinese state-sponsored threat actor, has resurfaced with a stealthy cyber campaign using a new arsenal of customized and open-source tools, including a variant of their SNOWLIGHT malware and the VShell RAT.
Sysdig researchers discovered that the group targets Linux systems through malicious bash scripts, domain squatting, and in-memory payloads, indicating a high level of sophistication and espionage intent. Their evolving tactics, such as using spoofed domains and fileless malware, continue to blur attribution and pose a significant threat to research institutions, critical infrastructure, and NGOs across the West and Asia-Pacific regions.
