In September 2022, the Top 10 Malware line-up stayed relatively consistent compared to the previous month. Most malware changed their rankings in the list, and new malware took the last three spots.

This month, Arechclient2, RedLine, and Ursnif returned to the Top 10 malware.

Arechclient2 is a NET RAT with numerous capabilities, such as profiling victim systems, stealing information, and launching a hidden secondary desktop to control browser sessions.

RedLine is an infostealer that is available for purchase on cybercriminal forums. The malware typically targets information such as credentials, cookies, banking information, and cryptocurrency wallet information. Furthermore, RedLine has remote functionality that enables it to download malicious tools or drop additional malware.

Ursnif is a banking trojan that is spread through malspam. Ursnif can obfuscate itself against anti-malware software, and it collects victim information from login pages and web forms.

The Top 10 Malware variants comprise 71% of the total malware activity in September 2022, increasing 24% from August 2022.

In September 2022, Multiple was the top initial infection vector as SocGholish activity decreased. Activity levels for Malspam and Multiple increased, while activity for Dropped and Malvertisement decreased. It is likely that Multiple will remain the primary infection vector in the coming months as other malware add initial infection methods to increase the span of their campaign unless the current SocGholish campaign increases.
