That makes it the second piece of known malware for the latter, but there’s a silver lining: Researchers discovered the malicious software before it had a chance to actually harm your system.

We have no way of knowing with certainty what payload would be distributed by the malware, if a payload has already been delivered and removed, or if the adversary has a future timeline for distribution.

(I haven’t found said malware, so I can’t verify whether your Mac will warn you about not installing it, or simply mark it as a malicious app and forbid you from doing so.)?
