Evilginx2 is an open-source adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) phishing framework and reverse-proxy toolkit used to intercept authentication flows between victims and legitimate websites. The provided content describes it as a reverse proxy that sits between the victim and the target service, weaponizing MITRE ATT&CK T1557-style AiTM attacks to capture login credentials, multifactor authentication material, and authenticated web session cookies. It can route traffic between a phishing victim and legitimate websites via SOCKS5 and HTTP(S) proxies.
The content directly associates Evilginx2 with MFA-bypass phishing operations by stealing credentials and session tokens in real time. It is specifically described as being used to obtain MFA credentials, login credentials, and session cookies, enabling session hijacking and account takeover even where MFA is deployed. The material also notes that AiTM frameworks such as Evilginx2 and Modlishka are used for real-time interception of session tokens, and that such attacks are only partially constrained by newer browser protections such as Device Bound Session Credentials because attackers may still use intercepted tokens within a short validity window.
Operationally, the content notes that phishing flows involving Evilginx2 may require the attacker to remain in the middle of the session so that short-lived authentication URLs or tokens do not expire during the interaction. It is referenced as a commonly cited toolkit in discussions of modern phishing infrastructure and is linked to public references including breakdev.org and the GitHub repository at github.com/kgretzky/evilginx2.
Threat-actor associations in the content include ALPHV/BlackCat affiliates, which reportedly use Evilginx2 to obtain MFA credentials, login credentials, and session cookies during intrusions. CERT Intrinsec also identified Evilginx2 as a tool used to weaponize AiTM phishing attacks observed in 2025 incidents affecting French organizations, including attacks against Microsoft/Entra ID-related authentication flows. The content further lists Evilginx2 among tools associated with the Russian espionage group IRON FRONTIER, also tracked as Callisto Group, COLDRIVER, Star Blizzard, and SEABORGIUM.
Targeting reflected in the content is broad and depends on the operator rather than the framework itself. Referenced victim environments include enterprise identity and cloud authentication workflows, legitimate websites proxied during phishing, Microsoft 365/Entra ID contexts, and campaigns tied to ransomware, espionage, and large-scale credential theft. No malware-style file hashes or standalone host-based IOCs for Evilginx2 itself are provided in the content.

Victims are lead to credential harvesting sites run by IRON FRONTIER, who likely use the stolen credentials to gain access to sensitive email communications and documents.
Sophos believes the fake ScreenConnect site proxied the inputs back to the legitimate ScreenConnect site to verify the credentials and capture the time-based one-time password (TOTP) sent from ScreenConnect to the administrator by email.
