Context

Magecart is a malware framework intended to steal credit card information from compromised eCommerce websites. Used in criminal activities, it's a sophisticated implant built on top of relays, command and controls and anonymizers used to steal eCommerce customers' credit card information. The first stage is typically implemented in Javascript included into a compromised checkout page. It copies data from "input fields" and send them to a relay which collects credit cards coming from a subset of compromised eCommerces and forwards them to Command and Control servers.
