New malware, for Macs
Feb 21 2021 08:39PM more by sherkahn
Tags: Current Events
Just a heads up, there has been a new malware and ransom ware detected.

It affects Macs.

New Macs.

“ We’ve found that many macOS threats are distributed through malicious advertisements as single, self-contained installers in PKG or DMG form, masquerading as a legitimate application—such as Adobe Flash Player—or as updates. In this case, however, the adversary distributed the malware in two distinct packages: updater.pkg and update.pkg. Both versions use the same techniques to execute, differing only in the compilation of the bystander binary."

Malware?
Who knew that gloom could be so subtle?
No meteors hurtling at us?
Earthquake?
Titty twister?
Pandemic?

Malware for Macs just doesn't have much bite, Gloom guy

I didn't think that this malware had actually delivered any kind of payload, YET.

The articles I read just said that it had been discovered and the only action at the moment was a frequent "call home" to a series of C&C hosts.

Cheers.
