TOP MACOS MALWARE THREATS: HERE ARE 6 TO WATCH

Apple's growing market share — in a shrinking PC market — and the growing use of
Golang for malware development is pushing a gradual increase in malicious tools
targeting macOS environments.

BlueNoroff Group's RustBucket

Since at least December, North Korea's BlueNoroff threat actor — a subgroup of
the broader Lazarus group — has been using malware dubbed RustBucket in
financially motivated attacks against targeted organizations worldwide. The
malware marks the threat group's first foray into the macOS realm and is an
example of how attackers have increasingly begun using cross-platform languages
like Go to develop attack tools for multiple platforms.



Researchers from Jamf Threat Labs reported on the malware in April 2023 after
observing BlueNoroff using it to drop and execute various payloads on victim
systems. The malware consists of a first-stage component (a backdoored but fully
functional PDF reader) that reaches out to a remote command-and-control (C2)
server, and installs a separate, second-stage payload for gathering specific
information from the victim system and relaying it back to the attacker.

Jaron Bradley, senior manager of macOS detections at Jamf, says the
sophistication is not only inside the malware itself, but the social engineering
tactics that the attackers use in order to get onto victim systems. "This
malware campaign targets Windows as well," Bradley says. "But the fact that the
attackers have gone out of their way to include a macOS version of the malware
tells us that … they have likely hit roadblocks in the past … on the macOS
platform."
