For anyone interested - I’d you are using umatrix to block shit you can punch these lines into a new text file and import as blocklist, then commit it with the tiny arrow that points left toward the permanent list to save it permanently:
* www[.]googie-anaiytics[.]com * block
* kuurza[.]com * block
* cdn[.]polyfill[.]io * block
* polyfill[.]io * block
* bootcss[.]com * block
* bootcdn[.]net * block
* staticfile[.]org * block
* polyfill[.]com * block
* staticfile[.]net * block
* unionadjs[.]com * block
* xhsbpza[.]com * block
* union[.]macoms[.]la * block
* newcrbpc[.]com * block
Remove the square brackets before saving the file - these are here to prevent hyperlinks and misclicks.
Edit: this is not a bulleted list, every line must start with an asterisk, just in case your instance doesn’t update edits made to comments quickly.
Edit2: added new IOCs
Edit3: MOAR IOCS FOR THE HOARDE
The first domain should be googie-anaiytics, the L in analytics was replaced with an i
Not many things require a polyfill these days. My guess is a lot of older sites are affected.
Opensource devs need to get paid a living wage 😩 This stuff keeps happening and somehow, I can’t completely blame the devs. Thousands of sites use the product and barely anybody donates. It’s not sustainable.
This has almost nothing to do with what you’re talking about.
A Chinese company bought the domain and the service in February and are attacking people in highly specific conditions. (Mobile devices at specific times)
This is an attack. Not negligence, not an uh oh oopsie woopsie fucky wucky. Attack.
… he made plenty off the product and made additional when he sold. Devs ability to make money has nothing to do with companies coming in and injecting malware to the service.
Any threat actor group with sufficient funds from various campaigns, spyware, etc could use said funds to buy out a dev, owner, etc.
Not to mention state-sponsored threat actors. This is the perfect example of distracting from the fact of what happened.
