The malware affects 20 different crypto wallet extensions, including Bitget Wallet, Trust Wallet, TronLink, MetaMask, TokenPocket, BNB Chain Wallet, OKX Wallet, Sui Wallet, Braavos – Starknet Wallet, Coinbase Wallet, Leap Cosmos Wallet, Manta Wallet, Keplr, Phantom, Compass Wallet for Sei, Math Wallet, Fractal Wallet, Station Wallet, ConfluxPortal, and Plug. While the malware has not yet been widely distributed, it poses a serious threat due to its stealthy methods of operation.

Microsoft recommends checking your browser plugins, clearing your browser history, and running antivirus scans. Users should also avoid downloading any suspicious files and ensure they are taking the necessary steps to secure their wallets.
