The North Korean-backed BlueNorOff threat group targets Apple customers with new macOS malware tracked as ObjCShellz that can open remote shells on compromised devices.
ObjCShellz is an Objective-C-based malware, quite different from other malicious payloads deployed in previous BlueNorOff attacks.
"Based on previous attacks performed by BlueNorOff, we suspect that this malware was a late stage within a multi-stage malware delivered via social engineering."
