Lumma

Lumma is a type of info-stealing malware known as the Lumma Stealer. It is designed to harvest sensitive data from infected systems, targeting credentials such as login details, cryptocurrency wallets, browser information, and other personal information. This malware is typically spread through malicious links in emails, cracked software, and compromised social media accounts like YouTube and Discord.

What makes Lumma particularly dangerous is its evasion tactics. It uses techniques to avoid detection, such as checking if it’s running in a virtual machine or debugging environment, and masking its presence on the system. The malware operates via a command-and-control (C2) infrastructure, making it hard for security systems to intercept the attack​

Lumma’s advanced techniques help cybercriminals by silently collecting data and transferring it to a remote server, often using sophisticated methods like encryption to avoid detection by antivirus software​

This makes it a significant threat, especially for users of cryptocurrency and those with sensitive online accounts.
