    1. tldr; Kaspersky has identified a new malware called ‘Stealka,’ which targets crypto wallets, browser extensions, and user data on Microsoft Windows. Disguised as game mods and cheats, particularly for Roblox, Stealka is distributed via platforms like GitHub and Google Sites. It exploits browsers built on Chromium and Gecko engines, targeting autofill data, crypto wallet extensions, and messaging apps. Kaspersky advises using antivirus software, avoiding pirated software, and not storing passwords in browsers to mitigate risks.
