Dark Caracal Malware Campaign Deploys Ethereum-Based C2 Fallback

A new malware campaign has been discovered, with hackers deploying Dark Caracal, a Go-based malware that includes an Ethereum-based C2 (Command and Control) fallback. This allows the malware to communicate with its operators even if it is unable to connect to its primary C2 server.

The use of an Ethereum-based C2 fallback indicates that the attackers are trying to make their communication more resilient and harder to detect.

While details on the targets or victims of this campaign are not provided in the source, it highlights the evolving tactics used by threat actors to remain undetected.
