New EVALUSION ClickFix Campaign Delivers Amatera Stealer and NetSupport RAT thehackernews.com/2025/11/n…
Cybersecurity researchers have discovered malware campaigns using the now-prevalent ClickFix social engineering tactic to deploy Amatera Stealer and NetSupport RAT. The activity, observed this month, is being tracked by eSentire under the moniker EVALUSION.
First spotted in June 2025, Amatera is assessed to be an evolution of ACR (short for “AcridRain”) Stealer, which was available under the malware-as-a-service (MaaS) model until sales of the malware were suspended in mid-July 2024. Amatera is available for purchase via subscription plans that go from $199 per month to $1,499 for a year.
“Amatera provides threat actors with extensive data exfiltration capabilities targeting crypto-wallets, browsers, messaging applications, FTP clients, and email services,” the Canadian cybersecurity vendor said. “Notably, Amatera employs advanced evasion techniques such as WoW64 SysCalls to circumvent user-mode hooking mechanisms commonly used by sandboxes, Anti-Virus solutions, and EDR products.”
