Russia-backed APT28 Deploys 'NotDoor' Outlook Backdoor

🛡️ Researchers at S2 Grupo’s LAB52 disclosed NotDoor, a VBA-based Outlook backdoor attributed to Russia-backed APT28 that monitors incoming mail for trigger phrases to exfiltrate data, upload files and execute arbitrary commands. The malware abuses Outlook event-driven macros, employs DLL side-loading via a signed OneDrive.exe to load a malicious SSPICLI.dll, and persists by disabling security prompts and enabling macros. Organizations are advised to disable macros by default, monitor Outlook activity and inspect email-based triggers.
