CategoryMalware
TypeBanking trojan, Credential stealer
Description(CERT.PL) Backswap is a banker, which we first observed around March 2018. It’s a variant of old, well-known malware Tinba (which stands for “tiny banker”). As the name suggests, it’s main characteristic is small size (very often in the 10-50kB range).

Backswap carries out multiple harmful activities. Big ones are: injecting Webinjects and stealing credentials. Supported browsers involve Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome. Some variants also swap the contents of the clipboard when bank/cryptocurrency account number is found.
