How to remove MacOS Bundlore from Mac?

What is MacOS Bundlore?

MacOS Bundlore (also known as Crossrider) or is a family of deceptive software installers that allow criminals to proliferate ('bundle') adware-type applications (such as CinemaPlusPro, FlashMall, MyShopcoupon, etc.) together with regular apps. Adware-type apps typically offer 'useful features' and most may seem legitimate. After infiltration, however, these programs deliver intrusive advertisements and gather sensitive information.

OS: Mac Category: Anti-Malware The Mac Rogue Remover Tool was created to remove the Mac Defender, Mac Security, Mac Protector, and Mac Guard rogue anti-spyware programs from a Mac. How-To How to remove the Bing search redirect from your Mac. If your Safari browser on a Mac computer is getting redirected to Bing, it is a strong sign of malware infection that requires.

Adware-type apps deliver intrusive advertisements using tools that enable placement of third party graphical content on any site. Therefore, coupons, banners, pop-ups, and other ads that often conceal underlying content, thereby significantly diminishing the browsing experience. Furthermore, they can lead to malicious websites and execute scripts that download and install malware. Even a single click can result in high-risk computer infections. As mentioned, adware-type apps also collect user-system information. Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, queries entered into search engines, URLs of visited pages and other information that may include personal details. It is common that those details are shared with third parties (potentially, cyber criminals). Third parties misuse shared information to generate revenue. Research shows that apps from Bundlore family target details such as a unique identifier for the computer, user name, macOS version, Safari and Chrome version, list of entries in the Applications folder, list of installed agents and daemons, list of installed system configuration profiles and/or version of the installed antivirus software or other security software that is designed to remove malware. Also, apps from this family often get installed as browser extensions and collect data that is displayed on websites or is entered into forms on a websites. It is possible that those apps may be capable of accessing sensitive data, such as usernames, passwords, and credit card numbers. Therefore, having. In doing so, potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) attempt to give the impression of legitimacy, however, their only purpose is to generate revenue for the developers. Rather than giving any real value for regular users, PUAs deliver intrusive advertisements and gather sensitive information, thereby posing a direct threat to your privacy and Internet browsing safety.

How did potentially unwanted programs install on my computer?

As mentioned, MacOS Bundlore's installers 'bundle' adware. Therefore, due to the lack of knowledge and careless behavior of many users, potentially unwanted applications often infiltrate systems without consent. Developers do not disclose PUA installations properly. Therefore, adware-type apps are often concealed within various sections (e.g., 'Custom/Advanced' settings) of the download or installation processes. Furthermore, many users are likely to rush these procedures and skip steps, thereby exposing systems to risk of various infections and putting users' privacy at risk.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

The key to computer safety is caution. Therefore, to prevent system infiltration by potentially unwanted applications, be very cautious when downloading/installing software and browsing the Internet. Select 'Custom/Advanced' settings and carefully analyze each window of the download/installation dialogs. Opt-out of all additionally-included programs and decline offers to download/install them. We advise you to download software from official sources only, using direct download links. Unofficial downloaders/installers should never be used, since developers monetize them by promoting ('bundling') PUAs. As well as using the 'bundling' method, adware developers often proliferate these programs using intrusive advertisements. Developers invest many resources into intrusive ad design, thereby making them seem legitimate, however, the ads often lead to dubious websites (gambling, adult dating, pornography, and so on). If you encounter these ads, immediately eliminate all dubious applications and browser plug-ins. If your computer is already infected with PUPs, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for macOS to automatically eliminate them.

Update September 13, 2019 - Cyber criminals have updated MacOS Bundlore a number of times since it first release and, thus, its behavior has changed. First of all, MacOS Bundlore uses a different technique to manipulate web browsers' search settings. In the past, MacOS Bundlore was using malicious browser extensions. Since MacOS 10.13 release, however, MacOS Bundlore achieves this by creating new device profiles, because the previous method is no longer working due to newly-added MacOS security features. Now it is worth mentioning that MacOS Bundlore performs a chain of actions to inject rogue applications into the system. Initially, a bash script ('Install.sh') connects to a remote server and downloads an archive containing an app named 'mm-install-macOS'. Once executed, this app connects to a remote server and downloads/executes scripts necessary to install unwanted applications. Now it is worth mentioning that password of the user is necessary for MacOS Bundlore to communicate with the system. In order to extract the password, MacOS Bundlore prompts a pop-up window pretending to be MacOS and asks user to enter the password. Once entered, the password is saved and used for further actions. MacOS Bundlore consists of three main components: 1) MyMacUpdater (responsible for communication with Command & Control (C&C) server in order to keep the infection up-to-date); 2) WebTools (responsible for bypassing MacOS security, changes of browsers' behavior, persistence achievement, and installation of ad-delivering tools), and; 3) ad-delivering tool which injects JavaScript into browsers by using AppleScript.

Update June 29, 2020 - MacOS Bundlore has been updated in order to target the newest version of the Safari browser. Since Safari 13 is longer compatible with the old Safari Extension format (.safariextz), developers of both legitimate and questionable software have been pushed to update their products in accordance. These changes in formatting have not escaped the notice of MacOS Bundlore developers. Several new installers have been released containing payloads compatible with the new Safari App Extension format (.appex).

IMPORTANT NOTE! As mentioned above, MacOS Bundlore uses device profiles to alter web browsers' behavior. Therefore, before taking any further removal steps, perform these actions:
1) Click the 'Preferences' icon in the menu bar and select 'Profiles'

2) Select the 'AdminPrefs' profile and delete it.

3) Perform a full system scan with Combo Cleaner anti-virus suite.

After performing these actions, you can proceed with further removal steps for this browser hijacker.
