A security threat group used more than 16 domains and 300 websites to create bogus login screens for 76 different universities in an attack that spanned 14 countries.

Investigators at SecureWorks said victims who were exposed to the URL spoofing attack were redirected from the phony webpages to real login screens where they could enter their usernames and passwords and give threat actors access to online library systems.

A security threat group called COBALT DICKENS, reportedly based in Iran, is believed to be responsible for the attack. Targeted organizations include universities based in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Turkey, Australia, China, Japan, Israel and Switzerland.
