In fact, Windows executables are so unsupported in macOS that Gatekeeper (a security feature of macOS that prevents suspicious programs from running) simply ignores EXE files. This is not a typical macOS object EXE files usually just don’t run on Mac machines. But a close look at the contents of this DMG file reveals the presence of the MonoBundle folder with a certain installer.exe inside. Victims downloaded to their computers a ZIP archive with a disk image in DMG format - so far, normal. The infected version of the firewall was distributed using torrents. Users who tried to save on paying for a license predictably ended up with a headache instead. The irony is that the malware was added not just anywhere, but to a pirated copy of a security product - the Little Snitch firewall. A tale of infection: A pirated firewall bundled with EXE malware An EXE file infecting Mac users? Strange, but the method does work. They collected data about the infected system and fed it into adware using files with the EXE extension, which usually runs only in Windows. Recently, cybercriminals found yet another way to tiptoe past its built-in defense mechanism. The idea that macOS is invulnerable is a myth, as we’ve said many times before.
