Eleanor Mac malware connects your webcam to the dark web

Malware dubbed Backdoor.MAC.Eleanor is embedded surreptitiously in the fake app EasyDoc Coverter.app and allows to control your webcam from the dark web. The application itself serves no functionality, posing as a drag and drop utility to facilitate simple file conversion. The software is embedded into a hidden Tor service for Command and Control (C2) functionality, a web service as well as a Pastebin agent. It is not signed by an Apple developer ID which therefore means it wont install unless you have allowed this specifically in your OS security settings.”]
