SecFlow Campaign Uses Commercial AI Agents Against Taiwanese and Indonesian Government Targets

Hunt.io researchers documented Chinese-speaking operators running the SecFlow framework across five exposed directories, routing requests to Claude, Qwen and DeepSeek through private proxy servers on the niestools.com domain as interchangeable operational components. Confirmed targets include Kuomintang Party political archives in Taiwan, the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, industrial hosts in Vietnam, and government, education and industrial entities in China. The operators deployed the GLUTTON webshell framework and ASPX web shells, used steganographic PNG payload delivery and a fake MySQL deserialization service, and dumped LSASS memory in 37-block segments. Confirmed impact totals 822 compromised office-automation user records and 1.28GB of exfiltrated data including patient health information.
