New ClickLock macOS malware traps users into revealing login password
A new macOS information-stealing malware dubbed ClickLock terminates all visible processes to force users into entering their system login password.
The malware is designed to steal cryptocurrency assets, login credentials, password-manager data, browser information, and macOS authentication data, and it can also install a persistent backdoor for ongoing remote access to infected systems.
Researchers at Group-IB analyzed the ClickLock shell script after discovering the malware on VirusTotal, where it was first submitted on June 9. At the time of the report, it remained undetected by all security vendors available on the platform.
