What Went Wrong — A Zero-Day in WinRAR

• On July 18, 2025, security firm ESET detected suspicious behavior on systems where a file was being extracted into unusual directory paths.

• Further investigation revealed a previously unknown vulnerability in WinRAR — now officially tracked as CVE-2025-8088 — that was being exploited in the wild.
• The vulnerability was a path-traversal flaw combined with abuse of Windows' Alternate Data Streams (ADS). This allowed malicious archives to place executables or shortcut files outside the user's chosen extraction folder — including in system or startup directories that can auto-execute code.

How the Exploit Worked — From Archive to Backdoor

The mechanics are surprisingly simple, which made this vulnerability dangerous:

• Attackers crafted RAR archives containing hidden ADS entries — in addition to seemingly harmless documents (e.g. a “CV” or a “job application”). When the archive was opened or extracted via WinRAR (version ≤ 7.12), the exploit triggered directory-traversal, letting it write files to protected locations such as %TEMP%, %LOCALAPPDATA%, or even the Windows Startup folder.
• The malicious payloads could be DLLs, executables, or Windows shortcut files (.LNK) that would execute on system startup or when specific legitimate applications (like browsers) ran — often without the user realizing anything suspicious.
• The attackers used this to install known malware/backdoors — including variants of SnipBot, RustyClaw, and a custom instance of Mythic Agent.

Because WinRAR does not auto-update, many users remained vulnerable simply because they didn’t manually upgrade. 

Who Exploited It — Two Criminal Groups

At least two distinct Russia-linked groups were found exploiting CVE-2025-8088:

• RomCom: According to ESET, RomCom began exploiting the vulnerability around July 18, 2025. Their spear-phishing emails disguised malicious archives as job applications or resumes. Their targets: companies in finance, manufacturing, defense, and logistics across Europe and Canada.
• Paper Werewolf (also known as GOFFEE): Independently identified by Russian cybersecurity firm BI.ZONE, this group used the same vulnerability (and sometimes another recent WinRAR flaw, CVE-2025-6218) to target Russian organizations. Their delivery method was similar phishing emails, with booby-trapped RAR attachments.

It remains unclear whether these groups shared exploit code or obtained it independently — possibly via underground criminal markets.

A Pattern of Exploits — Not the First Time for WinRAR

This isn’t WinRAR’s first security misadventure:

• In June 2025 — just weeks before CVE-2025-8088 was exploited — another path-traversal vulnerability in WinRAR (CVE-2025-6218) was patched. That flaw also allowed malicious archives to overwrite files outside the intended directory upon extraction.
• Historically, WinRAR has been targeted for similar issues, which means that relying only on its popularity or “legacy trust” can be risky.

The core problem: WinRAR’s widespread use + lack of auto-update = a perfect recipe for exploitation. Many users never patch or update — making them vulnerable long after a fix is released. 

What You Should Do Right Now — Security Measures

If you're using WinRAR (on Windows), here are urgent steps you should take:

1. Upgrade to the latest version — The patched version is WinRAR 7.13, released on July 30, 2025. Users must manually download and install the update, as WinRAR does not auto-update. 
2. Be cautious with unsolicited archives — Avoid opening RAR attachments from unknown or untrusted email senders. Especially be wary of attachments disguised as resumes, job applications, or business documents.
3. Consider alternative archive tools — If possible, use archive tools with automatic updates or less risky extraction behavior. Or avoid extracting archives directly from email clients.
4. Use real-time malware protection and implement security hygiene — Keep antivirus/antimalware software active, and avoid enabling auto-run on startup directories unless necessary.
5. For organizations: deploy the patch immediately across all endpoints — Given the widespread exploitation and high severity (path-traversal + remote code execution), delaying patching can invite serious security incidents.

Conclusion

The exploitation of WinRAR’s CVE-2025-8088 shows how everyday utilities — ones we think of as safe and mundane — can turn into powerful weapons when a zero-day vulnerability is involved. Two distinct attacker groups, RomCom and Paper Werewolf, used this flaw to silently install backdoors on targeted systems — sometimes with just a simple RAR archive and an unsuspecting user.

If you still rely on WinRAR, it’s time to update, stay alert, and reassess how you handle archive files, especially from unknown sources.

What is OSINT?

Open-Source Intelligence is the practice of collecting, and analyzing data, and information available and legally free on the open web and other public domains. These data and records can be collected from social media, government databases, open forums, and other routes. The information must be. The practice must be within the bounds of the law, and other regulations must not be violated. 

Conceptually, OSINT can be used in other various professions. In cybersecurity, OSINT can help track and pinpoint location of malicious actions, and activity. In the fields of journalism, it can help source verification. OSINT also has value to businesses, as it provides insight into market analysis and data on competitor activity.

Getting to Know the OSINT Framework

Rather than being a single piece of software, the OSINT Framework is a properly structured directory of tools, methods, and resources employed in open-source investigations. It sorts different OSINT resources into varying categories, enabling users to choose the appropriate tools for their needs.

Often, the framework is visually represented in the form of a tree, where every branch leads to specialized OSINT tools. This approach increases user-friendliness, even for beginners. Rather than undertaking general purpose internet searches, investigators can use tools in the framework that have undergone targeted categorization and deal with specific tasks like social media accounts, domain information, and image analysis, or email lookups.

Advantages of the OSINT Framework

The framework increases efficiency. Instead of general purpose searches, which can take considerable time, the framework quickly narrows the search to the relevant tools.

• The OSINT Framework also has a wide coverage. It spans various categories, such as usernames, emails, IP addresses, and phone numbers.
• Most of the tools contained within the framework are cost-free and simple to access, which speaks to the framework’s accessibility.
• Many OSINT resources are of established credibility and, therefore, reliable. This limits the probability of false data.
• The framework also maintains Ethical Standards in data collection by ensuring that the information is legally accessible and publicly available.

Most Important Parts of the OSINT Framework  

1. Analyzing Social Media  

Large amounts of data can be collected from social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn. The OSINT Framework assists in analyzing user profiles, posts, connections, and social interaction patterns. This is specifically beneficial in the area of digital investigations and monitoring threats.  

2. Domain and IP Research  

OSINT tools allow investigators to look up the registration, hosting, and IP history of a suspicious website. This is instrumental in cybersecurity when tracking harmful websites, identifying phishing domains, and other cases of phishing.  

3. Monitoring Email and Username Accounts  

The OSINT Framework helps to determine the risk of compromised accounts through data exposure as well as potential identity theft through email or username checks.  

4. Analyzing Images and Videos  

Fact-checking in journalism is made much easier when the tools used to determine the origin of a picture or video through a reverse image search and the examination of video metadata is available.  

Geolocation and Mapping  

Investigators can utilize tools provided in the OSINT Framework to examine maps, satellite imagery, and other location based tools or services. This is very beneficial in locating missing persons, tracking crimes, or in disaster response.Benefits for Cybersecurity and Investigations  

OSINT Framework remains invaluable for cybersecurity professionals as they identify and track potential cyber attacks, track and monitor hackers, and identify and follow harmful domains. For law enforcement, they can follow leads without resorting to sophisticated and invasive monitoring techniques. Organizations can track and monitor brand health and identify fraudulent activities, which is yet another way to help businesses.  

Ethical hackers are other OSINT users, finding system exploits before malicious hackers can. Organizations incorporate additional security measures to deal with the potentially harmful OSINT.  

Challenges of Using OSINT  

OSINT is accompanied by unique challenges as well.  

1. Information Overload – Having an abundance of data can make filtering the actionable insights almost impossible.  
2. False Information – Not every piece of data is useful and accurate, and thus needs to be verified before being acted on.  
3. Privacy Concerns – Respecting the law, especially regarding data privacy, is of utmost importance.  
4. Tool Limitations – Geography and jurisdiction can render investigative tools useless, and tools can also have limitations.  

Best Practices for Using the OSINT Framework  

• Always start with a specific investigative objective.  
• Cross-reference all data with a different source.  
• Regularly check for updates on the framework tools.  
• Follow the law and the ethics of the investigation.  
• Document the investigation findings for future use.

Conclusions  

The users of OSINT can find guidance from the OSINT Framework. From accurate and ethical information gathering in journalism and cybersecurity, OSINT will make accurate and ethical information gathering possible. OSINT, if approached from the right angles, will uncover information of immense value and insights hidden in plain sight.

What happened  

Security researchers were able to chain two previously reported issues: CVE‑2025‑55177 (a WhatsApp linked‑device validation logic bug) and CVE‑2025‑43300 (a DNG/image parser memory corruption). A user can send a malformed DNG through WhatsApp, and under the linked devices control flaw the targeted device will automatically parse that file and trigger an out‑of‑bounds write along with arbitrary code execution with no user actions. Targeted surveillance is likely the most common exploitation of this vulnerability.  

Why this is especially dangerous  

• Zero‑click: the absence of any user action is the most concerning as clicking, opening, or consenting is completely bypassed.  
• Chained: the exploit crosses app/OS boundaries and remediation will require coordinated patches from multiple vendors.  
• Stealthy persistence: the more advanced an exploit, the more likely it can persist and exfiltrate data, steal credentials, and install remote implants that are hard to detect.

Who is at risk? 

When researcher write-ups and vendor advisories highlighted risk to users of iOS, iPadOS, and macOS, they noted this because of the potential handling of the impacted DNG files and messages. Any system that handles DNG files or processes affected messages might be at risk in the same message chains. High-profile users, including journalists and dissidents, and enterprise mobile fleets, are at the highest risk. 

What to do, and do first?  

Update your system and the WhatsApp application first. Apple as well as vendors issue updates that block exploited pathways.  

Disable automatic media parsing. DNG files are uncommon and they should be blocked from unknown users.  

Unlink any unknown devices that are connected to your WhatsApp account. Remove any unknown linked devices and reset authentications for trusted devices to unlink them.  

If targeted and as a last resort, consider a full device reset. Vendor instructions must be followed as this will be the only option to reclaim a compromised device after all aggressive tenant controls, esp the thick client/mobile devices.  

Operational controls & hardening

• Enforce MDM policies. They should include restricted app versions and automatic updates for corporate devices and setting of install permissions.  
• Network Filtering should include DNG files to be blocked or sandboxed. They should be inspected in secure sandboxes prior to delivery to the endpoints.
• EDR & XDR monitoring: Implement and adjust macOS/iOS EDR/XDR solutions to monitor unusual process activity, persistence attempts, and exfiltration.
• Incident playbook: Include mobile compromise scenarios in IR plans: containment, forensic imaging, token rotation, and steps around user communication.

Detection ideas, tools, and approaches (defensive, non‑exploit)

Below are practical, defensive tools and example detection approaches available to you.

Tools to consider:

1. Mobile/endpoint: Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (does support mobile), CrowdStrike Falcon, SentinelOne, Lookout Mobile Endpoint Security.
2. Network / sandboxing: Zeek (formerly Bro), Suricata, Palo Alto WildFire, Cisco Talos, XDR-type services from Reuters for managed detection.
3. Forensics / analysis: Cellebrite (for enterprise forensics), Magnet AXIOM, and commercial mobile forensics suites (use cautiously and legitimately).

Detection signals

1. Unusual logs showing use of WhatsApp Web/ linked devices.
2. Transfers of large or unusual incoming media from quiet accounts.
3. MacOS/iOS endpoints exhibiting new or anomalous processes, launch agents, or persistence entries.

Connections to suspicious domains made after media receipt.

Example SIEM query (conceptual)

Look for repeated “linked device” events + large incoming media in X minutes (translate to your SIEM syntax; avoid publishing vendor‑specific exploit payload indicators).

Indicators & CVEs (reference)

• CVE‑2025‑55177 — WhatsApp linked‑device logic/authorization issue.
• CVE‑2025‑43300 — Memory‑corruption in DNG/image parsing used as RCE vector.

(Avoid seeking or sharing exploited PoCs or weaponized payloads. Use threat intel feeds from reputable providers to pull safe IOCs.)

Longer-term suggestions  

• Vendor accountability: Prompt vendors to reinforce parser security, embrace memory-safe programming, or implement more aggressive fuzzing/sanitization techniques for complex file formats.  
• Defensive layering: Integrate application hardening, operating system patching, network controls, and modifications in user behavior as coordinated actions to create more immutable layers.  
• Threat hunting frequency: Conduct media file parsing and MDM enforcement policy anomaly hunts and re-tests to identify enforcement policy adherence gaps and missing policies.

Conclusion  

The 0-click DNG chain for WhatsApp is a case in point. Contemporary adversaries exploit complexity (file parsers + messaging features) to bypass human defenses. Mobile controls enforcement via MDM, patching, capable EDR/XDR deployment, and updated incident plans regarding mobile devices will ensure they are treated as fully managed security endpoints. Expect timely actionable coverage from HackersKing as zero-click exploit defenses must be immediate. Layered controls are mandatory to save lives and data in these scenarios.

Some parts of a breach directory can contain the following pieces of information:  

• Usernames and email addresses  
• Plain text and hashed passwords  
• Contact information  
• Log in pages  
• Session cookies and other metadata in certain instances  

The quote “breach directory. org search over 16 Billion Public Leaked Records” demonstrates just how large these collections have become.  

Where Did These 16 Billion Records Come From?  

Recent investigations have found 30 different datasets which total around 16 billion credentials. Here’s how they were collected:  

• Infostealer Malware. Any malware on a compromised device can steal stored logins in the browser along with cookies and tokens.  
• Old Breaches. Several records originate from leaks of the past that have been consolidated into massive collections.  
• Credential Stuffing Lists. Attackers compile known logins and then attempt them on various platforms.  
• Underground and Dark Web Forums and Dumps. Stolen information circulates in hacker markets and is later made publicly available.  
• Some datasets are massive. One dataset contained 3.5 billion records associated with accounts from Portugal, another had 455 million records from Russia, and about 60 million records possibly related to Telegram users.

Why is this leak more dangerous than those in the past

Wider credential leaks have been around for quite some time, but there appears to be more 'weight' to the  16 billion credential exposure:

1. Fresh leaks - It appears that most infostealer malware of recent years has been successful as many of the credentials appear to be more recent and not recycled from previous  hacks.
2. Details of leaks - Attackers can evade 2 Step Verification with ease as some of the leaks possess session tokens and cookies that contain login credentials. 
3. The scale of attacks - The leaked credentials appear to have the full spectrum as it includes accounts from virtually every part of the world, from gaming accounts to banking. 
4. Interrelated dangers - It is important to note that regardless of any duplicated login credentials, the attackers only require a single active login to inflict damage. 

The ever-evolving risks you are likely to come across

• Account Takeovers - Accounts of users with a previous data breach get reused to gain access to social media and financial accounts.
• Impersonation - Statistics stolen as a data set makes it easier to pretend to be the target.
• Phishing Attacks - The deceptive messages that attackers throw are directed to targets crafted around the stolen information.
• Monetary Plunder - The breach only has saved login credentials to check for stolen money.
• Diminished Business Reputation - For organizations that suffer information breaches, it ruins the bond with clients and can place the business in a desperate legal position. 

What have you done to see that you have not been targeted 

In case you want to check for accounts that are exposed, you should only rely on for accounts that have not a single trace of hacked passwords.

• Only provide your email address or username. Do not submit your password under any circumstance. 
• If your email address appears on leaks, it is best to presume the password associated to it is compromised as well. 
• You should change the associated account password and enable 2FA immediately. 

What you should do right now 

According to Kaspersky and Forbes professionals, the top five actions you should prioritize are as follows: 

Replace your passwords. 

Focus on your email, bank, and social media accounts as a priority.  Your password should be sufficiently long, unique, and random. 

Make use of a password manager. 

Tools such as Bitwarden, 1Password, and LastPass are capable of creating and saving individual logins. 

Enable 2FA. 

Make use of app-based 2FA or hardware keys if available. 

Remove passwords saved from the browser. 

Infostealers are known to capture logins saved within your browser. Delete these logins and use a password manager. 

Evaluate passkeys.  

Passkeys are much safer than traditional passwords as they cannot be leaked. Many platforms now provide ways to log in without a password. 

Practical example. 

Let’s say you created a shopping account that is linked to the email and password of your main Gmail account. Your shopping site’s database is compromised, and your login details are part of the 16 billion leaked accounts. Hackers are trying to use the same email and password combination on her Gmail account. That is the level of ignorance with credential reuse, which can compromise your online security.

Checklist for Security

• Delete outdated and reused passwords
• Enable MFA/2FA on every account you can.
• Use an approved password manager.
• Use passkeys instead of passwords.
• Update your system regularly to protect against infostealers.
• Review your accounts regularly for abnormal behavior.
