Security researchers recently identified a concerning threat: five malicious Chrome extensions designed to impersonate legitimate HR and ERP platforms, specifically targeting tools like Workday and NetSuite. These deceptive extensions operate by harvesting authentication cookies from users' browsers while simultaneously blocking access to security and administrative pages through DOM manipulation techniques. This layered attack strategy allows threat actors to maintain persistent access while evading detection. Users managing digital assets should exercise caution when installing browser extensions and verify authenticity through official channels only.

It's the same old phishing trick again, just using a different disguise. People fall for it every day, and I really can't understand it.
