"Researchers Explore Remote Code Injection in macOS"

Code injection is a method that is frequently used by malware authors to conceal their malicious activities and circumvent security protections implemented on targeted systems. Research surrounding code injection methods usually explore the use of these methods on the Windows operating system. Therefore, a cybersecurity company, named Deep Instinct, decided to conduct code injection research with focus on macOS as this operating continues to grow in popularity. The code injection techniques tested by researchers can circumvent widely-used security tools for macOS. This article continues to discuss the remote code injection methods and custom-built Mach-O loader tested by researchers.
