Thought I'd just make a quick update about this. Yet another malware for OS X has been discovered and it also uses a Java vulnerability like the other malware did. This malware is not as widespread as the one I posted about earlier though.
It seems like you're safe if you have installed the Java update from Apple. Anyway, the moral of the story is, OS X is not as safe as you think. OS X is not immune to it and this has been proven countless of times. Oh and like with the other malware I posted earlier, this one does not require any user interaction. It just downloads and installs itself.
