Title: New Malware Variant Jukes Apple's Bug Fix Post by: HCK on June 01, 2011, 11:00:40 pm New Malware Variant Jukes Apple's Bug Fix
As promised, Apple on Tuesday released a security update to combat MacDefender, a type of fake antivirus malware that had targeted the Mac OS X platform over the last few weeks. On Wednesday, however, hackers apparently managed to figure out an end-run around its solution. Apple's fix updates its malware definition list daily, and it searches for and removes known variants of the MacDefender malware. http://www.macnewsworld.com/rsstory/72564.html |
