Hot Take:

Well, if I'd to choose between a BlueNoroff and a KANDYKORN, I'd go for the latter. Sounds tastier, doesn't it? But no, these are not fancy desserts but macOS malware strains! The notorious North Korean group, BlueNoroff, known for its financial heists and crypto crimes, has cooked up something new for Apple users. It's a malware called ObjCShellz, part of the RustBucket campaign. So, if you thought those "investment advice" emails were too good to be true, you were right. They're just a sweet wrapper for a bitter pill.
