Mauro Eldritch & Sibel Oliveira: Malicious Tokens — Using NFTs as Command-and-Control Infrastructure
A DEF CON 32 talk where researchers Mauro Eldritch and Sibel Oliveira demonstrate how NFTs can be used as infrastructure for controlling malware.
They introduce the concept of mFT (Malicious Fungible Tokens), a method of delivering command-and-control (C2) instructions through blockchain-based NFTs, making such infrastructure extremely difficult to remove.
The talk also presents an open-source tool for experimenting with and studying this new class of attacks.
