New virus for macOS can steal Telegram accounts
Miscellaneous / / July 11, 2023
Israeli software company Guardz discovered a virus called ShadowVault that can steal sensitive information from computers running macOS.
Working in the background, malware discreetly copies passwords, cookies, bank card data, e-wallets, browser extensions, and other valuable information. In addition, it steals Telegram accounts.
It is noted that the virus does not pose a risk to data in Safari. But it is capable of attacking users of all other browsers, and also has access to Apple's Keychain feature, used in macOS and iOS to save logins and passwords.
ShadowVault is distributed in dark web on a paid basis and costs $ 500, which is much cheaper than similar programs, security experts say. For an additional fee, malware creators are willing to provide an assembly signed by an Apple developer.
