Security researchers have discovered a malicious campaign by the 'Witchetty' hacking group, which uses steganography to hide a backdoor malware in a Windows logo.

Witchetty is believed to have close ties to the state-backed Chinese threat actor APT10 (aka 'Cicada'). The group is also considered part of the TA410 operatives, previously linked to attacks against U.S. energy providers.
