Executive Summary
Industry researchers identified a financially motivated, Russian-speaking threat actor tracked as UAT-11795 conducting a sophisticated malware campaign targeting users primarily in the United States since at least June 2025. The operation employs suspected ClickFix-style social engineering, trojanized software installers, and a custom Python-based remote access tool, Starland RAT, to establish persistent access and deploy additional malware, including the previously undocumented WLDR PowerShell framework, CastleStealer, and Remcos RAT. The campaign demonstrates a modular architecture, resilient C2 infrastructure, and a strong emphasis on credential theft, cryptocurrency wallet harvesting, and long-term post-compromise access.
