Information for removing Pirrit can be found over at PCRisk. GoSearch22 has been associated with Pirrit-related ads, which when closed simply direct the user to a more-often-than-not malicious or dangerous website.
The GoSearch22 Safari browser extension has been specifically outed as a member of this new M1 malware family, with MacRumors explaining how this type of code can collect sensitive user data without permission and actually lead to more malware being installed on an infected machine. As reported by Wired, code that had been created for running on Intel x86 processors has been taken advantage of by shadowy types to come up with Mac malware that will operate natively on the Apple M1. It appears users of those devices can already expect to be troubled by malware issues, as new examples of the accursed apps have been found.
An independent researcher called Patrick Wardle has made some worrying discoveries for those in possession of a brand-new Apple M1 MacBook Air, M1 MacBook Pro, or M1 Mac Mini.
