Abstract generation in progress

According to Deep Tide TechFlow news, on November 14, as disclosed by the GoPlus Chinese community, a malicious Chrome extension named “Safery: Ethereum Wallet” has been discovered that is stealing user assets. This extension was released on November 12, 2024, disguised as a simple and secure Ethereum Wallet, but contains a backdoor.

The attack method has a high degree of concealment: the malicious plugin encodes the user's mnemonic phrase into a Sui address and broadcasts microtransactions through a Sui Wallet controlled by the attacker to steal the mnemonic phrase. The attacker's email is kifagusertyna@gmail[.]com.

The malicious extension has not yet been removed from the Chrome Web Store.
