APT29 Deploys GRAPELOADER Malware Targeting European Diplomats Through Wine-Tasting Lures

Russian state-affiliated hacking group APT29 has launched a phishing campaign targeting diplomatic offices across Europe. The campaign uses a new version of WINELOADER malware and a previously undisclosed malware loader called GRAPELOADER. Targets are lured with fake invites for wine-tasting events purportedly from the European Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the malware is deployed via a ZIP file when the email link is clicked. The main targets are embassies in European countries.
