Hacker injects infostealer virus into an early access Steam title that has been removed. The title is question was Chemia, and for some reason, a hacker has managed to find their way onto an unreleased game and drop malicious files. If you happen to have this game installed and you played it, you should uninstall and clean your PC as soon as you can, make sure your credit card info is safe and other credentials are too. Infostealer malwares are truly terrible to face, as they operate silently through your PC, registering your every keystroke and even taking password databases if you have any sitting on your PC.
Hacker injects infostealer into an innocent game
The hacker, nicknamed Larva-208 has found its way into a game from a company that seems to be in trouble now. There does not seem to be anyone who managed to caught a wind on who this mysterious hacker is, but they seem to have done various attacks like this before. There’s no concrete data on a group for which he belongs, and many suspect they might have already slipped into the shadows. Hackers are truly some cunning and mysterious personalities, but always seem to be bent our life worse.
A ton of modern games suffer thanks to these people, but at the same time, online only games kinda deserve that happening to them. If the company behind is unable to defend themselves from these digital geniuses, then they should allocate more money into doing so. Unfortunately, this also happens to small indie studios with single player games, and we hope that the people behind Chemia can actually do something about it. People who played the game, that small community behind it takes a lot of time to cultivate, so its quite the black hat move to go against an innocent indie developer.
