MacSync: The Evasive macOS Stealer Exploiting ClickFix Lures

MacSync Stealer is a macOS information stealer and remote-access stager delivered through ClickFix social engineering and malvertising campaigns. Operating under a malware-as-a-service model, it employs sophisticated evasion techniques including process daemonization, single-byte XOR obfuscation, and in-memory AppleScript execution to bypass Apple Gatekeeper, XProtect, and EDR solutions. The malware exfiltrates credentials, browser data, cryptocurrency wallets, and SSH keys through fault-tolerant 10MB chunked uploads to command-and-control infrastructure. MacSync targets professionals in software engineering, cryptocurrency, fintech, and corporate environments across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific regions, with campaigns impersonating legitimate services like Google Meet, Claude AI, Docker, and TradingView to trick victims into executing malicious Terminal commands.
