3,000 YouTube Videos Used as Malware Traps in Ghost Network

⚠️ Check Point researchers uncovered a long-running operation that uploaded and promoted over 3,000 YouTube videos linking to malware downloads. The network, dubbed the YouTube Ghost Network, has been active since 2021 and saw its volume triple this year, using hacked channels and a role-based structure to sustain distribution. Videos offering pirated software and Roblox cheats pointed users to cloud-hosted files or phishing pages that deployed stealers and Node.js loaders, and Google has removed the majority of identified content.
