Year-long Russian attacks infect users as soon as they look at an email

The highlights:

The attack doesn’t require any user interaction other than viewing the malicious email, and once that happens, the attackers get to work exfiltrating a ton of data. This includes the victims’ last 90 days of email communications, email addresses and passwords, the organizations’ email directories such as global address lists, two-factor authentication tokens, and newly created application passcodes.

The Russians’ latest campaign targets CVE-2025-66376, a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Zimbra web-based email and collaboration suite that was patched in November 2025.

Some of the email addresses used in this campaign include ivanka.zurabishvili@proton[.]me, zmul1@buildandconsulting[.]com, garrysmithme@pinmx[.]net, and hostingclient@pinmx[.]net, we’re told.
