Uri Terror attack & Kashmir Protest Themed spear phishing emails targeting Indian Embassies and Indian Ministry of external affairs

“In my previous blog I posted details of a cyber attack targeting Indian government organizations. This blog post describes another attack campaign where attackers used the Uri terror attack and Kashmir protest themed spear phishing emails to target officials in the Indian Embassies and Indian Ministry of External Affairs (MEA). In order to infect the victims, the attackers distributed spear-phishing emails containing malicious word document which dropped a malware capable of spying on infected systems. The email purported to have been sent from legitimate email ids. The attackers spoofed the email ids associated with Indian Ministry of Home Affairs to send out email to the victims. Attackers also used the name of the top-ranking official associated with Minister of Home affairs in the signature of the email, this is to make it look like the email was sent by a high-ranking Government official associated with Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA).”
