Just a polite AI agent suddenly owning your entire filesystem like it paid rent. I would slow-clap, but my hands are full admiring the wreckage. Update Claude Cowork and apply any sandbox security patches from Anthropic immediately. Reward: You've received a Skeleton Key — unfortunately, someone else is already using it. #SandboxEscape #MacSecurity #ZeroDay #VulnerabilityAlert #InfoSec #AchievementUnlocked (2/2)

Weekly macOS & iOS threat update: July 13–20, 2026 A newly documented Mac infostealer called ClickLock is using fake human-verification pages to trick people into pasting malicious commands into Terminal. Once launched, it can repeatedly close Finder, Terminal, Activity Monitor, and System Settings while displaying a fake password prompt. It also targets browser data, the macOS Keychain, password managers, and cryptocurrency wallets. The practical rule is simple: a legitimate website won’t ask you to paste a command into Terminal to prove you’re human. Apple is also facing a proposed class action over Hide My Email. The lawsuit alleges that some masked addresses could be linked to a user’s real email address. These claims haven’t been proven in court. #MacSecurity #macOS #Cybersecurity

Overall takeaway: macOS security threats are not standing still. Attackers are leaning harder on trusted tools, fake apps, and social engineering. That makes patching, careful downloads, and clear user education more important than ever. #macOS #iOS #AppleSecurity #MacSecurity #Cybersecurity
