About this tag
BazarLoader is a malware loader that has been observed exploiting the Windows App Installer (ms-appinstaller/AppInstaller.exe) to deliver AppX packages. This attack chain, sometimes called a 'call me back' campaign, uses signed-looking app packages to install BazarBackdoor. Execution relies on living-off-the-land binaries such as regsvr32, PowerShell, and msedge, while command-and-control traffic is hidden in cookies to evade detection.

Discussions on WindowsForum cover the technical details of this stealthy delivery method and its implications for enterprise security.
