Apple Telah Membasmi Trojan.Yontoo.1

Setelah kabar kehadiran Adware Trojan.Yontoo.1 kemarin, Apple ternyata langsung bergegas untuk membersihkannya.

Seperti yang ditemukan oleh Intego dan diberitakan MacRumors, Apple telah memutakhirkan XProtects serta menambahkan fitur pengidentifikasian terhadap Yontoo dan peringatan buat user. Berikut kutipannya:

Apple has decided the Yontoo Adware has fallen too far on the side of undesirable behavior, as they have released an update to the XProtect.plist definitions file to provide Mac OS X with basic detection for the Yontoo adware as OSX.AdPlugin.i. In testing, it appears this detection is very specific and potentially location-dependent. This extra specificity is likely there so as to catch only the surreptitious installations of this file.

Dan dengan pemutakhiran yang dilakukan Apple kali ini, mereka berhasil membuat para pengguna OS X kembali aman.
