ClickFix campaign in Ukraine compromises over 100 websites to spread Lunex malware

Hackers compromised more than 100 websites to infect Ukrainian users with information-stealing malware, according to a new report.

Ukraine's computer emergency response team, CERT-UA, said the campaign, discovered in September, involved attackers injecting malicious code into legitimate websites. Visitors to those sites were shown a fake Cloudflare verification page that told them to copy and run a command in PowerShell, a Windows command-line tool, to prove they were human.
