Security researchers have published a report detailing the arrival of new malware that goes after sensitive data that's stored on your Mac, including passwords and credit card data. According to the security team at Uptycs (fave.co/3KnLZto), the "MacStealer" malware can attack Macs running macOS Catalina or later, with either Intel or Apple M-series chips.
Uptycs found that MacStealer can get passwords, cookies, and credit card data from Firefox, Google Chrome, and Brave browsers. It can extract several file types, including .txt, .doc, .jpg, and .zip, and it can extract the KeyChain database. According to information Uptycs gathered from the dark web, MacStealer's makers are working on the ability to harvest Safari passwords and cookies, as well as data in the Notes app.
