Steganography based malware, latest threat type.

https://techxplore.com/news/2019-01-verymal-campaign-image-based-malware.html

Malware hidden in images that suggest uses to update flash and other kinds of files. Now only found on Mac's but I am sure they will port that scumware to windows and linux.

It seems nobody understands or gives a shyte about this new threat which cannot be stopped by anybody's AV.

If the threat slows down the proliferation of repetitive pointless image transmissions it could be a blessing in disguise.

400 hours of video gets loaded onto YouTube every minute.
Most of it cat videos.
