New CrashStealer malware poses as Apple crash reporting tool
By Bill Toulas
AI Summary
Jamf Threat Labs identified CrashStealer, a new macOS infostealer written in native C++ that masquerades as Apple's crash-reporting tool, uses a notarized dropper to bypass Gatekeeper, and validates the victim's login password locally before exfiltrating credentials, keychain data, and crypto wallets. The use of notarization to pass macOS security controls makes this a particularly sophisticated threat for macOS endpoint defenders.
