title: ClickLock Stealer Chrome Safe Storage Key Access
id: deb0c2e6-fda5-43ed-8bea-0dfab4650772
status: experimental
description: |
Detects a shell script invoking the macOS security utility to retrieve a browser Safe Storage key. ClickLock Stealer uses this behavior while
coercing the victim to approve a genuine Keychain prompt, allowing stolen Chromium data to be decrypted offline.
