Spark RAT Targets Cambodia, Abuses Vulnerable OPSWAT Driver to Disable Security Tools

Spark RAT, an open-source remote access trojan (RAT), is being deployed in Cambodia through campaigns using varied lures including government notices and public health materials. The malware abuses a vulnerable OPSWAT driver to disable security tools on infected systems.

Why it matters: Organizations and individuals in Cambodia face active compromise risk; practitioners should investigate whether Spark RAT or related indicators of compromise (IOCs) appear in their network logs and patch the vulnerable OPSWAT driver immediately.
