Hackers Launch Rust-Based Luca Stealer Targeting Linux and Windows
Posted: Mon Dec 15, 2025 3:24 pm
Cybercriminals are increasingly abandoning traditional programming languages like C and C++ in favor of modern alternatives such as Rust, Golang, and Nim.
This strategic shift enables threat actors to write malicious code once and compile it for both Windows and Linux with minimal changes.
Leading this trend is “Luca Stealer,” a newly identified information-stealing malware built entirely in Rust and released publicly as open-source code.
