Site basé sur l'offline après Infostealer Hack

Infostealer malware found on Kash Patel’s Based Apparel website forced the site offline on Friday.

X user Debbie flagged malware, infostealer designed to steal credentials and passwords. Security researcher later analyzed the malware, confirming its payload.

Brand unreachable for comment. TechCrunch emailed a Gmail address previously associated with Patel; no reply. Based Apparel website offline; no updates.

Incident follows a week of security failures in MAGA‑aligned ventures, including Trump Mobile exposing customers’ personal data—names, email addresses, mailing addresses, cell numbers, order identifiers—after a researcher alerted YouTubers. Pattern suggests a systemic neglect of security hygiene.

Law enforcement shutting down VPN service used by ransomware gangs, scammers abusing internal Microsoft account, and other security alerts highlight a broader threat landscape.

Hack demonstrates that even niche e‑commerce sites can become vectors for credential theft if basic web security is ignored. Politically driven brands must adopt hardened defenses and regular penetration testing to protect customers and reputations.
