A new campaign exploits OpenClaw skills to distribute the Atomic MacOS Stealer (AMOS). This evolution in supply chain attacks manipulates AI agentic workflows to install malware. The campaign spans multiple repositories with hundreds of malicious skills uploaded to ClawHub and SkillsMP. The infection chain begins with a seemingly harmless SKILL.md file that installs a prerequisite, leading to the download of a Mach-O universal binary. This AMOS variant steals extensive data, including credentials, browser data, cryptocurrency wallets, and various user documents. It lacks system persistence but expands its reach by exfiltrating Apple and KeePass keychains. The malware uses sophisticated encryption schemes and targets multiple browsers and cryptocurrency wallets.

The ClickFix social engineering technique has gained popularity among threat actors, targeting thousands of devices globally. It tricks users into executing malicious commands on their devices by exploiting their tendency to solve minor technical issues. The technique often impersonates legitimate brands and combines with delivery vectors like phishing and malvertising. ClickFix campaigns typically lead users to a visual lure, such as a landing page, instructing them to run commands in the Windows Run dialog. This user interaction element helps bypass conventional security solutions. Various malware, including infostealers and remote access tools, are delivered through ClickFix attacks. The technique has evolved to target macOS users and is being sold as part of malware kits on hacker forums.
