Attackers Exploit Platform Vulnerabilities to Transform Legitimate Apps into Malware

Once they identify a target domain as inactive, they promptly register it and use the domain's email to initiate a password reset on the Snap Store, effectively taking over the publisher's identity without direct confrontation.
