AI-Powered Mach-O Analysis Reveals Undetected macOS Threats
🔎VirusTotal ran VT Code Insight, an AI-based Mach-O analysis pipeline against nearly 10,000 first-seen Apple binaries in a 24-hour stress test. By pruning binaries with Binary Ninja HLIL into a distilled representation that fits a large LLM context (Gemini), the system produces single-call, analyst-style summaries from raw files with no metadata. Code Insight flagged 164 samples as malicious versus 67 by traditional AV, surfacing zero-detection macOS and iOS threats while also reducing false positives.
