nsane.forums Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Mac users downloading copies via BitTorrent tracker sites get hit with another malware attack. Just yesterday I reported on how Mac users, who have prided themselves for years that it was their PC cousins bearing the brunt of virus and malware attacks, were being infected by a Trojan horse contained in pirated copies of Apple's iWork '09 downloaded from public BitTorrent tracker sites. Now there a new variant of the iServices Trojan horse has been discovered by the same security firm Intego in pirated copies of Adobe Photoshop CS4 The actual Photoshop installer is clean, but the Trojan horse is found in a crack application that serializes the program. After downloading this version of Photoshop, users will run the crack application to be able to use it. The crack application extracts an executable from its data, than installs a backdoor in /var/tmp/, a directory which is not deleted when the computer is restarted.
