0xf8290bea4e7585302ba9984b76766d4f0e282c0e is a smart contract address that 2 published sources report in connection with EtherHiding activity, which no published source ties to North Korea (DPRK). It is cited here from Confiant and Chollima Hunter (on-chain observation). The earliest of those reports is dated 2026-08-28 and the most recent 2026-11-11.

DPRK link unconfirmed Confiant tracks this cluster as HexMage, a Magecart card-skimming operation that loads its skimmer through EtherHiding, and names no actor or state; it mentions DPRK-linked EtherHiding only as separate work, and no DPRK link is published for it. The EtherHiding tracker covers every reported EtherHiding contract and wallet, not only North Korean ones, so this value may belong to another actor.

C2 hosts this address pointed malware at, newest first. Dates are when the value was written on-chain, and Transaction opens the one that first wrote it; a row without one is a tie a cited report states. A host whose verdict is decoy was written between real values and is not C2. See the EtherHiding Tracker.

    Notes:

    Ethereum Sepolia contract the HexMage Magecart loader reads as a dead-drop resolver through getText(). Confiant reports that it resolves to the skimmer delivery host ashenravenfort.top. Created on 2026-06-29 by 0x88361c914bb0942da9a1b7bb396a7513c1917aee; it holds a sealed salt:iv:ciphertext value that the loader decrypts with a per-build password (PBKDF2-SHA256, 100,000 iterations, AES-256-GCM).
