Apple Devices Targeted by New RustBucket macOS Malware Lazarus Subgroup

A North Korean threat actor, known as BlueNoroff, is suspected to be behind a new Apple macOS malware strain called RustBucket.

BlueNoroff is part of the infamous Lazarus cluster, which is also tracked under various monikers and is known for its sophisticated cyber-enabled heists targeting the SWIFT system as well as cryptocurrency exchanges.

The malware masquerades as an Internal PDF Viewer application to activate the infection and is signed with an ad-hoc signature.

It is suspected that BlueNoroff is attempting to exploit trust relationships in the software supply chain as entry points to corporate networks.

Other North Korean threat actors, such as Kimsuky, have been linked to a variety of tactics such as spear-phishing, fraudulent browser extensions, and remote access trojans.
