CISA Warns of Phishing Campaign with Loan-Relief Lure


Phishing emails and fake website promise help with the Small Business Administrations program that aids those affected by COVID-19.



The Department of Homeland Securitys Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued a warning about an in-progress phishing campaign using the Small Business Administration (SBA) COVID-19 loan-relief program as bait. According to the warning, the still-unknown malicious actor has spoofed the SBAs loan-relief page and is using the fake site to steal credentials and carry out other malicious actions.
The warning says that CISA analysts have seen phishing emails addressed to various federal civilian executive branch recipients as well as those in state, local, tribal, and territorial government. The indicators of compromise include a number of specific IP addresses to which URLs resolve, URLs that include the string leanproconsulting, and display URLs that feature legitimate agency prefixes with unusual top-level domains.
Among the mitigations CISA suggests are keeping anti-malware and systems software up to date, and reminding employees to be careful about clicking on links in email messages.
