This February has surprised security experts and, unfortunately, a few end users, with a return of a previously known Bumblebee malware. First spotted back in 2022, it has been out of sight for some time, making the return yet more unexpected.
What is even more peculiar, this late version of the malware relies on the VBA macros to attempt gaining the access to the infrastructure, a significantly outdated approach, as Microsoft has blocked automatic VBA macros execution over a year ago. The February campaign was based on an email, originating at a legal domain, containing a link to a OneDrive location, where an MS Word file was stored, that contained the malicious macros.
The rare case when the malware would actually be able to gain access would be an environment, where the macros auto-execution has been re-enabled for some reason, so honestly speaking the threat level is low.
