Foxveil 'cc2' build Mach-O, the EIGHTEENTH payload served from this one unchanged URL (fat x86_64+arm64, 936,912 B), fetched via Tor 2026-09-21 16:37:28 UTC, origin build time 16:01:36, 2 hours 59 minutes after the previous build. The origin is nginx, so each build time is readable from the ETag: the payloads served behind this URL were stamped 2026-09-20 07:02:41, 09:02:47, 11:03:28, 14:01:46, 15:02:41, 16:02:02, 20:05:52, 21:01:38 and 2026-09-21 00:01:43, 01:02:53, 04:03:03, 07:04:04, 11:06:32, 12:02:19, 13:02:09 and 16:01:36 UTC. The job skips hours rather than running on a fixed interval, and the gaps measured so far run from 55 minutes to 4 hours 3 minutes. Hash sequence on the same URL: a3dabccd14492f4c70658ece96a3ed7b4e275ff9d70c434298bd6f863d1e24b9 (987,264 B, 2026-09-18), ec780ca8df9d10df905f3f77641f88ece7651303843802c37a57c484c6251a42, 610ae82d0d872334ba68718030bdeb0c2d23ce592b4c9022fbb225b0208b884a, 233fd2c05865e6fc7034e61bf98e64f7afeb24c1b3e88539895eeff764ebb740, 336f4bf8eb4d76c91f936beabe3a061b43db46d2cc85e6dc82dd22f9194191fc, 8e7d88f5adef0f2706fbc6df433e3c76d81c4b799389319e60a4639fc1c088a1, f03b8beef33330786b3f3f12e2bf2c352d4f14b8e6d5a78180205c7cccdcefb7, 6f994814774412107510aede65422e66c1e825f57bd3ae5d0f173aa2c54893d5, a2da9aba412172006b2ba30e2168ec030dabcdf8c46e6895ffba1c26834251a6, 382a3e22d91b93c67de463fde451870620e661b8e96f40a4ece80a2d3543a03f, c254bf1cd9ab1496ad01785ed181bd6e314534bb1f079a4bc4616b40a8fd62ee, 5fabab3dc7f8b73ee1343b01ea9e3d7802a41d12e9a03b1c80f66b72b98fd3fa, dbedefe4ca5494b6188085e27b17f0f3133fe2ec7df04cfe69714f8047c994bf, 534b55b6772e5c2669f325bc877056c874a180650253e4bd5844ffaf69c384b6, 9f7bfdbf82d08d21fd6e9f31dc5f5e9e9b541bb39f94fa32992281a463e73173, aacf8388643245011a2b5edc472fafa48277e33b7b7e4de23ba62b1a8e919558 (903,952 B, 2026-09-21 12:02:19), fcf16d3a7cf00b46d53c059afbd20f444eb816763d44ddd90df93059037eafa2 (953,664 B, 2026-09-21 13:02:09), then this one. The stage-1 zsh dropper at the same host (sha256 6e753133e537264247a08587d87b30b8d9a96caea1d6cc92d41fc8058073b8f7) still answers with the ETag it has carried since 2026-09-18 12:56:51: the delivery chain is fixed and only the payload rotates. Earlier builds in the series were unpacked statically and each held the same AMOS AppleScript stealer, with the same 47 handlers, hosts and persistence, decrypted with a key derived from the SHA-256 of the loader's own __text section, so each repack rekeys itself. What rotates is the wrapper: obfuscation volume, PBKDF2 iteration count, encrypted item count and table layout, tokens and the ad-hoc code signing identity. This build compared against the previous one: 42 __text functions against 42, TLSH of __text 39, within the range measured between builds of this family. The encrypted payload table holds 50 items totalling 194,264 bytes of plaintext against 74 items and 192,474 bytes in the previous build, a 0.9 percent move: the same script re-chunked. Host answers HTTP 200 only to a curl User-Agent; browser User-Agents get a Cloudflare 520. Not executed.
