First OS X ransomware detected in the wild, will maliciously encrypt hard drives on infected Macs

Aki Macen az elmult napokban frissitett 2.90as transmission torrent klienst, jobb ha figyel:

OS X users have today been hit with the first known case of Mac ‘ransomware’ malware, found in the Transmission BitTorrent client released last week. Infected versions of the app include ‘KeyRanger’ malware that will maliciously encrypt the user’s hard drive after three days of being installed. The malware then asks for payment to allow the user to decrypt the disk and access their data — the ‘ransom’.

Ami számomra elég érdekes, hogy azzal látszólag keveset foglalkozik a cikk, hogy vajon hogy került a Transmissionbe a malware eleve?

Ezekszerint mégis jó a Windows Smartscreen?
