Tricks from the Past deployed via signed ChatGPT and Claude binaries

Key Points Check Point Research discovered a campaign we track as Yoba where attackers abuse the popularity of AI tools such as ChatGPT and Claude, creating fake GitHub projects that pretend to be desktop applications like GPT-5.6 Sol , GPT-6 Astra , and Claude Opus . The malware is placed next to legitimate, signed executables from OpenAI and Anthropic so it can be loaded indirectly, a technique commonly known as DLL sideloading, which is often used to bypass security protections.
