Beware of the Trojan!
20 June 2008, Hedi |
Hidden behind a Poker Game, this Trojan has been discovered by Intego.
PokerStealer is its name, this Trojan comes in the shape of a Poker game; it contains a shell script that will asks you for your password pretending it will fix a preferences file in your system.
Once started, PokerStealer will activate SSH on your Mac and will send to a distant server your IP address, your ID and your password.
Then, a Pirate will use these datas to connect to your Mac: erase files, control your computer and do whatever he wants to do!
