These valuable files range from browser data, crypto, keychains and more.
Description

Realst Stealer, a Rust-based malware focused on info-stealing, primarily targets crypto assets on compromised systems. In a well-documented campaign, the malware was ingeniously embedded into lesser-known video games. To distribute it, attackers approached individuals offering exclusive early access to these games, presenting them as NFT-based opportunities to earn crypto. Once the user launches the game, Realst Stealer activates, compromising the system and initiating its crypto-stealing routines.
