The App Store is dedicated to providing a great experience for everyone. Let’s take a look at how this new variant works.Ĭode Signing Mac macOS 10.15 Catalina Malware Notarization SecurityĪllowing Bug Fixes and Challenging the GuidelinesĪpple (also: Hacker News, 9to5Mac, MacRumors): Although bypassing Apple’s Notarization checks is obviously a headline grabber, this new variant of Shlayer utilizes heavily obfuscated Zsh scripts and is in fact far more prolific in the wild. Most of us had assumed that those brief checks would be followed by slower and more thorough analysis, with triage determining which apps needed to go on for expert human dissection.īut Shlayer has been up to other tricks since June of 2020 that have been helping it avoid the static signatures employed by most vendors. Rapid checks, such as those most probably performed as part of Apple’s initial notarization process, are therefore unlikely to be able to detect it. Over the last couple of years, a succession of security experts have deemed Shlayer unsuitable for conventional signature-based detection methods, because of its design and frequent evolution. I reported to Apple but not sure if any changes have been made. I had similar observations last year when I found that I was able to get my red team apps notarized.
