Anime Girls Could Steal Your Crypto as Wallpaper Malware Targets Steam Gamers
In the report published on Monday, Kaspersky said attackers used Steam Workshop to distribute malicious Wallpaper Engine downloads disguised as animated desktop wallpapers, many featuring female anime characters. “The application-based wallpaper feature allows executable programs to run directly on a user's Windows computer, allowing attackers to distribute malicious software under the guise of legitimate content,” Kaspersky said, adding that it had identified dozens of infected wallpaper packages available through Steam Workshop.
