Slip in the right extended attribute by using the <em>xattr<\/em> command, like a modified ACL, and you have a way to tell Gatekeeper that whatever it&#8217;s looking at definitely isn&#8217;t the file it&#8217;s looking for, Bar Orr said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"adun\" data-pos=\"top\" data-raptor=\"falcon\" data-xsm=\",fluid,mpu,\" data-sm=\",fluid,mpu,\" data-md=\",fluid,mpu,\">\n            <noscript><br \/>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/jump?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_security\/front&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=4&amp;c=44Y6Ifg0eMYkdF1bFqE46DWAAAAMs&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D4%26raptor%3Dfalcon%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/ad?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_security\/front&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=4&amp;c=44Y6Ifg0eMYkdF1bFqE46DWAAAAMs&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D426raptor%3Dfalcon%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\"\/><br \/>\n                <\/a><br \/>\n            <\/noscript>\n        <\/div>\n<p>&#8220;Our data shows that fake apps remain one of the top entry vectors on macOS, indicating Gatekeeper bypass techniques are an attractive and even a necessary capability for adversaries to leverage in attacks,&#8221; Bar Or wrote.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"crosshead\">Lockdown Mode, schmockdown mode<\/h3>\n<p>Apple claimed in July that Lockdown Mode was so secure, and the company so confident in its capabilities, that it was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2022\/07\/06\/apple_lockdown_mode\/\">doubling its bug bounty payouts<\/a> to a max of $2 million for Lockdown Mode compromises.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lockdown Mode is described by Apple as for a small number of users whose lives and\/or work make them targets for digital threats.
