<div class="elementToProof"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">"FritzFrog’s addition of exploitation capabilities to its arsenal shows a similar shift in this direction. The additional infection vector
that is abusing the Log4Shell vulnerability, and the pkexec exploit module are two additions explored in this blog post that exemplify this shift. We believe that this trend will continue in upcoming FritzFrog versions, and it's likely only a matter of time
before additional exploits are added to the malware."</span></div>
