Widely used Daemon Tools disk app backdoored in monthlong supply-chain attack

Daemon Tools, a widely used disk imaging app, has been compromised in a month-long supply-chain attack, pushing malicious updates to thousands of machines worldwide. The infected versions, ranging from 12.5.0.2421 to 12.5.0.2434, collect system information and send it to an attacker-controlled server. The attack targets select groups, including retail, scientific, government, and manufacturing organizations.
