Snappybee, Citrix Flaw Used to Breach European Telecom

🔒 A European telecommunications organization was targeted in the first week of July 2025, according to Darktrace, with a threat actor linked to the China-associated group Salt Typhoon gaining initial access via a vulnerable Citrix NetScaler Gateway. The intruders pivoted to Citrix VDA hosts in an MCS subnet and used SoftEther VPN to mask their origin. They deployed Snappybee (aka Deed RAT) via DLL side-loading alongside legitimate antivirus executables; the backdoor called home to aar.gandhibludtric[.]com. Darktrace says the activity was detected and remediated before significant escalation.
