The unnamed Frenchman, part of the Epsilon hacking group, targeted media companies and social media accounts, using malware to steal information and offering it for rent.
Motivation behind hacks unclear, possibly an advertisement for password-stealing malware available on Telegram and Discord, exemplified by WaveStealer disguised as video game installers.
WaveStealer, used by Epsilon group, targets browsers and cryptocurrency wallets, potentially enabling account breaches and fund theft by criminal parties.
Speculation arises that the tool could have been employed to obtain passwords from social media managers within TV companies.
