I got hit by a An Infostealer: NWHStealer
Just downloaded something from github and my assumption was correct about it being an infostealer. The whole thing lasted maybe a minute, running in the background silently in my appdata folder, inside a random12letter folder, with a random12letter program
closed and uninstalled it almost immediately, has damage been done?
and if so, what do i need to do? is it still in my system? how come ESET security didn't pick it up?
4hours+, Update: Im in the process of resolving most of my issues. EA account and microsoft account were compromised, i think i got EA back under my control but not certain yet. Microsoft is currently a slow process because i cant find my Device ID for the life of me.
P.S: I have never been more glad in my entire life for having a seperate gmail account for steam
30minute+, 2nd Update: I just checked the stats of it on malwarebytes, and it was detected by a single person's scan documentation ONLY 7 hours prior of me getting infected... My luck man...
+8 Hour 3rd update: I dont know if they're still in my account or not, but i got a password reset request for reddit to my gmail around 3 hours ago, but reddit in the description told me to ignore it if it wasn't me - nothing has happened, so I'll take their word for it
