    Another OS X Trojan paves way for Mac zombie army




    A screenshot of the malicious PDF, as displayed in Ubuntu Linux.



    Look out, Apple users: There's another Mac OS X Trojan out in the wild, and it might be heading your way.
    The sneaky malware pretends to a be a Chinese-language PDF document about the Pinnacle Islands, eight uninhabited rocks in the East China Sea simultaneously claimed by Japan, Taiwan and mainland China.
    If you open the file, which could appear as an emailed attachment or as a Web link, the document, written in traditional Chinese ideograms, does indeed display. But a Trojan silently installs itself in the background as you try to sort out centuries-old territorial claims.

    The Trojan doesn't really do anything — yet. But F-Secure, the Finnish security firm that discovered it, notes that it lays the groundworkfor much more sophisticated attacks against Macs.
