Machete is a Spanish-language, targeted cyber-espionage campaign (identified as Trojan-Spy.Python.Ragua) active since ~2010 that uses spear-phishing and malicious web applets to deploy Python-embedded Windows malware capable of keystroke logging, microphone/webcam capture, screenshots, geolocation and file exfiltration; Kaspersky reports hundreds of victims in Latin America and provides domains, sample filenames, HTML infection snippets and other IOCs.
