Beware — that dream job offer could be malware sent by Iranian hackers

Iranian state-backed hackers target aerospace professionals with fake job offers to install malware and steal data. The "Dream Job" campaign uses fraudulent recruitment sites and social media profiles to trick victims into downloading files containing SnailResin malware, which loads the SlugResin backdoor for data exfiltration and system persistence. The attack mimics North Korean hacking styles, suggesting possible collaboration or impersonation. It focuses on gathering sensitive information from aerospace, defense, and government sectors for geopolitical intelligence.
