Si usas plataformas de streaming o reproductores multimedia para ver películas o series, y las ves con subtítulos CUIDADO. Hace unos días, los investigadores de Check Point han descubierto código malicioso entrando a través de estos ficheros.
Lo curioso, es que los antivirus lo dejan pasar, porque lo consideran ficheros de texto normales. Los de Check Point dicen que es el vector de ataque más extendido y fácil de usar que han reportado en años. Tened en cuenta que estiman que cientos de millones de usuarios usan estos reproductores en diferentes dispositivos (ordenadores, móviles, tablets, raspberry etc).
“By conducting attacks through subtitles, hackers can take complete control over any device running them. From this point on, the attacker can do whatever he wants with the victim’s machine, whether it is a PC, a smart TV, or a mobile device,”.
“The potential damage the attacker can inflict is endless, ranging anywhere from stealing sensitive information, installing ransomware, mass Denial of Service attacks, and much more.”
Las plataformas afectas detectadas (pueden haber más) son las más famosas: Kodi, VLC, PopcornTime, Stremio…. La mayoría ya ha sacado actualizaciones de seguridad tapando el vector de ataque.
¿Solución? Actualizar. La de siempre 😀 Kodi avisa, que tienes una actualización, pero hay que ir a la web a descargar la versión. Haced lo mismo para el resto.
