Security researchers have discovered a new exploit kit, currently active mainly in Asian countries, which, they say, has been busy spreading bootkits and cryptocurrency-mining (coinminer) malware.

This new exploit kit (EK) has been named Underminer in a report published yesterday by security firm Trend Micro. The company says it discovered the first clues of its existence last week, around July 17.
