Quote:The RedLine information-stealing malware targets popular web browsers such as Chrome, Edge, and Opera, demonstrating why storing your passwords in browsers is a bad idea. The malware can programatically decrypt the store as long as users are logged in as the same user. Even when users refuse to store their credentials on the browser, the password management system will still add an entry to indicate that the particular website is "blacklisted" The malware targets the 'Login Data' file found on all Chromium-based web browsers and is an SQLite database where usernames and passwords are saved.
