Apple has released its regular weekly update to XProtect for all versions of macOS, bringing it to version 5345. As usual it doesn’t release information about what security issues this update might address.

This version adds one new Yara rule for MACOS.SILLYSTRAW.IMA, which appears to be a new genus, and in the Osascript rules in XPScripts.yr it adds a new rule for MACOS.OSASCRIPT.TADE and amends the existing rule for MACOS.OSASCRIPT.SYPR.

You can check whether this update has been installed by opening System Information via About This Mac, and selecting the Installations item under Software.

A full listing of security data file versions is given by SilentKnight and SystHist for El Capitan to Tahoe available from their product page. If your Mac hasn’t yet installed this update, you can force it using SilentKnight or at the command line.

If you want to install this as a named update in SilentKnight, its label is XProtectPlistConfigData_10_15-5345

Sequoia and Tahoe systems only

This update has already been released for Sequoia and Tahoe via iCloud. If you want to check it manually, use the Terminal command
sudo xprotect check
then enter your admin password. If that returns version 5345 but your Mac still reports an older version is installed, you should be able to force the update using
