A few days ago MacOS reported that nightfall will damage your computer.

Could you run this command please?

codesign -vvv /Applications/Nightfall.app/

Interesting, codesign seems to be showing that the app's signature is fine.

If anyone can hunt down the cause of this, please let me know.

Not sure which version I use the have, but after a "brew upgrade" MacOS no longer report this as malware. Now I have version 2.1.3

Still weird that the older version was reported as malware, but it seems to be fixed now.
