According to Foresight News, SlowMist's Chief Information Security Officer, 23pds, has issued a warning about a new variant of the MacSync malware. This variant is capable of bypassing the macOS Gatekeeper security feature, and it has already affected user assets. The malware employs techniques such as file inflation, network verification, and self-destruct scripts post-execution to evade detection. It can steal sensitive data, including iCloud keychains, browser passwords, and cryptocurrency wallets, posing a significant risk. Mac users are advised to exercise caution and avoid downloading software and plugins from unknown sources.
