A hacking operation has deployed new malware in the latest evolution of its campaign to make money by stealing credit card data.
FIN8 appeared to disappear for two years before re-emerging in June. The group seems to have started where it left off, continuing to evolve and adapt malicious tools to improve the success of its campaigns.

"This is the first attack observed during 2019 that can be attributed to FIN8 with high probability, although there are a few indicators that overlap with known FIN7 attacks (URLs and infrastructure)," said Moprihsec CTO Michael Gorelik.

The latest evolution of FIN8's attacks has been detailed by cybersecurity researchers at Gigamon. The security company has uncovered Badhatch -- a previously-unreported form of malware used as part of the financial hacking group's latest campaign.
Like previous forms of FIN8 malware, the malicious payloads appear to be custom-built by the attackers.
