Summary

Hide ▲

Infinity Stealer is a macOS infostealer being delivered through a ClickFix lure and is able to steal high-value credentials and secrets. The payload is compiled with Nuitka into a native Mach-O binary, which makes static analysis and detection harder. It can collect browser logins, macOS Keychain entries, cryptocurrency wallets, and .env secrets before exfiltrating them to C2.

    Malwarebytes documents Infinity Stealer macOS ClickFix campaign

    Initial Disclosure

    Malwarebytes documented a new macOS infostealer campaign using ClickFix lures and a fake Cloudflare CAPTCHA on update-check[.]com to trick users into pasting a base64-obfuscated curl command into the macOS Terminal. The chain writes a stage-2 loader to /tmp, removes the quarantine flag, runs it via nohup, and delivers UpdateHelper.bin as an Infinity Stealer payload compiled from Python with Nuitka into a native Mach-O binary that performs anti-analysis checks and steals browser credentials, macOS Keychain entries, cryptocurrency wallets, and .env secrets before exfiltrating data by HTTP POST and triggering a Telegram notification.
