Signatures
-
Launch Agent 1 TTPs
Adversaries may create or modify launch agents to repeatedly execute malicious payloads as part of persistence.
-
AppleScript 1 TTPs 4 IoCs
AppleScript is a macOS scripting language designed to control applications and parts of the OS via inter-application messages called AppleEvents.
ioc Process sh -c "osascript -e \"do shell script \\\"launchctl load -w /Users/run/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.afsvcpd.plist\\\" with administrator privileges\"" Process not Found osascript -e "do shell script \"launchctl load -w /Users/run/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.afsvcpd.plist\" with administrator privileges" Process not Found sh -c "osascript -e \"do shell script \\\"launchctl start /Users/run/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.afsvcpd.plist\\\" with administrator privileges\"" Process not Found osascript -e "do shell script \"launchctl start /Users/run/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.afsvcpd.plist\" with administrator privileges" Process not Found -
Resource Forking 1 TTPs 2 IoCs
Adversaries may abuse resource forks to hide malicious code or executables to evade detection and bypass security applications. A resource fork provides applications a structured way to store resources such as thumbnail images, menu definitions, icons, dialog boxes, and code.
ioc Process /System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/Resources/LWWeeklyMessageTracer Process not Found "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Resources/Java Updater.app/Contents/MacOS/Java Updater" -bgcheck Process not Found -
Launchctl 1 TTPs 8 IoCs
Adversaries may abuse launchctl to execute commands or programs. Launchctl supports taking subcommands on the command-line, interactively, or even redirected from standard input.
