#Mimic

Anyone need a mimic for their house?

#Furniture #Mimic

Felt like texturing something I didn't make for practice. Basically digital miniature painting.

The model is this mimic by Yasashii Kyojin Studio on Thingiverse.

The brick floor is this one from polyhaven.

This took me probably about 4 or 5 hours of work. A surprising amount of work went into getting the boundaries sharp and in the right place. I almost feel like it might have been less work to model and sculpt it from scratch and keep the materials separated by object. I might have to do a mimic of my own soon.

The turntable video is rendered in #Eevee and the still is rendered in #Cycles. Unfortuntately, I forgot to turn on screen-space reflections for Eevee.

A still image render of a D&D mimic. It is a chest on a worn brick floor in front of a black void. The chest is open wide, and erupting from the inside is a long purple and blue tongue, surrounded by bulbous gums and long fangs.

Malicious npm Package Targets Developers to Delivers Cross Platform Payloads

A malicious npm package called “ambar-src” attempting to mimic the
legitimate package “ember-source”. Malware abuses the pre-install script
during the package installation process to deliver cross platform payloads.

MIMICRAT: ClickFix Campaign Delivers Custom RAT via Compromised Legitimate Websites

A sophisticated ClickFix campaign has been uncovered, compromising legitimate websites to deliver a multi-stage malware chain. The attack culminates in MIMICRAT, a custom remote access trojan with advanced capabilities. The campaign uses compromised sites across industries and geographies for delivery, employing a five-stage PowerShell chain that bypasses security measures before deploying a Lua-scripted shellcode loader. MIMICRAT, the final payload, is a native C++ RAT featuring malleable C2 profiles, Windows token theft, and SOCKS5 proxy functionality. The attack chain involves multiple compromised websites, obfuscated scripts, and sophisticated evasion techniques, demonstrating a high level of operational sophistication.

Invitation to Trouble: The Rise of Calendar Phishing Attacks

A new phishing tactic involving fake Microsoft and Google Calendar invites has been identified, aimed at stealing login credentials. These sophisticated attacks mimic designs from well-known platforms, exploiting routine business activities like scheduling meetings. Threat actors use email spoofing and create fake urgent calendar invitations to deceive employees. The phishing emails often contain buttons or links that redirect to fake login pages, closely resembling official Microsoft or Google login screens. The campaigns exploit the popularity of calendar invitations in corporate environments, allowing attackers to gather sensitive information if users are not vigilant. To prevent falling victim to these attacks, it is crucial to verify the authenticity of calendar invites, carefully check sender details, and avoid clicking suspicious links from unknown senders.

Uncovering Malicious Cryptocurrency Scam Domains and Hacked YouTube Channels

Infoblox security researchers have discovered a group of malicious domains hosting cryptocurrency scams, some linked to hacked YouTube channels. The domains, initially registered under CryptDesignBot, frequently change registrars to conceal information. They use lookalike domains to impersonate legitimate brands. Hacked YouTube channels are exploited to promote scam crypto domains through fake livestreams. The scams often claim to double cryptocurrency, mimicking old RuneScape scams. Many domains use keywords associated with celebrities and brands like Elon Musk and Tesla. Protective measures include implementing protective DNS, securing cookies, using HTTPS, generating random session IDs, and setting session timeouts. Infoblox's BloxOne Threat Defense offers protective DNS capabilities to combat sophisticated threats.

Attackers Weaponize RMM Tools via Zoom, Meet, & Teams Lures

Netskope Threat Labs has identified multiple phishing campaigns exploiting video conference invitations from Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet. The attackers use fake meeting invites to trick users into downloading malicious payloads disguised as software updates. These payloads are actually legitimate, digitally signed remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools like Datto RMM, LogMeIn, or ScreenConnect. By leveraging these tools, attackers gain administrative remote access to victims' machines, potentially leading to data theft or further malware deployment. The campaigns use convincing phishing pages that mimic legitimate video conferencing platforms, exploiting users' urgency to join scheduled calls. This sophisticated approach allows attackers to bypass traditional security measures and establish a persistent foothold in corporate networks.

Высокая и худая старушка в клетчатых брюках и меховой ушанке долго держала свой взгляд в экране пассажира — соседа по скамье. И не только читала, рассматривала, но ещё и мимически демонстрировала отрицательное удивление. #females #undergroundpipl #mimica #mimic #MW

트위터에서 @levelsio와 @theo의 쓰기 스타일을 몇 달간 연구한 뒤, 어떤 계정의 트윗 목소리도 복제할 수 있는 AI 도구 'MIMIC'을 만들었다고 발표함. MIMIC은 특정 계정의 'voice fingerprint'(문체 지문)를 추출해 짧고 강한 톤의 문장 스타일 등을 재현해 준다고 설명함.

The #honeybadger is widespread in #Africa and shares #habitats with #cheetahs. Cheetah #cubs possess a #mane-like, light-colored #fur running down their back, reminiscent of the honey badger, which is highly unpopular with #predators due to its #defensive nature. R. L. Eaton (1976) concluded that the cubs #mimic the honey badger to avoid predation. #mimicry

Honey badger in a sub Sahara African savanna landscape with baobab tree in the background. The honey badger reacts very aggressively against predators, such as lions, leopards or hyenas. Its remarkable bites and the efficient use of its powerful claws can harm attackers. Its aggressivity and a defensive fluid secretion support the negative experience with the honey badger in for example carnivoran predators like the above mentioned.
Cheetah cubs imitate the brighter für along the back in honey badgers. This is interpreted as defensive mimicry, which evolved to scare off predators, for which the cubs under other circumstances would be a very suitable prey.
