<\/div>\n

Hackers using MacOS malware are targeting cryptocurrency investors that use both the Slack and Discord chat platforms. The malware, dubbed OSX.Dummy, uses an unsophisticated infection method, but those who are successfully attacked open their systems up to remote arbitrary code execution.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the connection to the attacker\u2019s C&C server succeeds, the attacker will be able to arbitrarily execute commands (as root!) on the infected system,\u201d wrote Patrick Wardle, chief research officer at Digita Security in a blog post Friday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The malware was first spotted and described by researcher Remco Verhoef, who posted his findings early Friday to the SANS InfoSec Handlers Diary Blog<\/a>. The researcher said he observed multiple attacks last week.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Over the] previous days we\u2019ve seen multiple MacOS malware attacks, originating within crypto related Slack or Discord chats groups by impersonating admins or key people. Small snippets are being shared, resulting in downloading and executing a malicious binary,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

Users are enticed by attackers to execute a script that in turn downloads the hefty 34Mb OSX.Dummy malware via cURL. The download is saved to the macOS\/tmp\/script directory and then executed. \u201cThe file is a large mach064 binary (34M), rating a perfect score of 0\/60 on VirusTotal,\u201d Verhoef wrote.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The script used to trick victims into downloading OSX.Dummy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The binary is unsigned, Wardle notes, adding that malware is able to sidestep the macOS Gatekeeper security software, designed to prevent unsigned software from being downloaded and executed.<\/p>\n

\u201cNormally such a binary would be blocked by Gatekeeper.\u00a0However\u00a0if users are downloading and running a binary\u00a0directly via terminal commands<\/em>, Gatekeeper does not come into play and thus unsigned binary will be allowed to execute,\u201d Wartle wrote. \u201cI guess the take away here is (yet again) the built-in macOS malware mitigations should never be viewed as a panacea.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the malware binary is executed, a macOS sudo command (via Terminal) changes the malware\u2019s permissions to root. \u201c[T]his will require the user to enter their password in the terminal,\u201d Wardle explains. According to Apple<\/a>, \u201cto execute a\u00a0sudo\u00a0command in Terminal on your Mac, you must be logged in with an administrator account that has a password.\u201d<\/p>\n

From there, the malware drops code in various macOS directories including \u201c\/Library\/LaunchDaemons\/com.startup.plist\u201d, which gives the OSX.Dummy persistence.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe bash script (which runs a python command) tries to connect to 185[.]243[.]115[.]230 at port 1337 within a loop and the python code creates a reverse shell. To ensure execution during startup it creates a launch daemon. At the moment I was testing this, the reverse shell failed to connect,\u201d Verhoef wrote.<\/p>\n

Wardle notes that if the attack is successful, and malware is able to connect to the adversary\u2019s C2 server, the attacker can take control of the targeted system.<\/p>\n

Wardle, not Verhoef, dubbed the malware OSX.Dummy because one of the directories used to dump the victim\u2019s password is called \u201c\/tmp\/dumpdummy\u201d. He also shared other reasons:<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m calling it OSX.Dummy as: the infection method is dumb, the massive size of the binary is dumb, the persistence mechanism is lame (and thus also dumb), the capabilities are rather limited (and thus rather dumb), it\u2019s trivial to detect at every step (that dumb) \u2026and finally, the malware saves the user\u2019s password to dumpdummy,\u201d Wardle said.<\/p>\n
