Hi,
@Hahanerd said this was the correct place to put this.
I would advise anyone who has installed any version of OS-Scape to uninstall and change any passwords immediately.
I downloaded the JAR file and ran it using the linux command `java -jar launcher.jar`. This means that when I was playing on the client, I also had to keep my linux terminal open so that the process was not interrupted.
Essentially, the OS-Scape developer was dev-logging activites to do with the client, but also printing stack traces for any Java exceptions being thrown. This includes an IOException (java exception for file handling) for me, where OS-Scape attempted to copy locally cached Google Chrome passwords (I don't use chrome, so I have none) and steal them - the client definitely connects to a remote database (how stats/game data is stored), so it could be stored in the same database or file bytes sent over sockets.
Bare in mind OS-Scape could be a fully-armed trojan, if other stealing isn't throwing exceptions then it is likely we will never know what other things OS-Scape is trying to steal (the source code is most probably obfuscated, haven't tried decompiling but I will at a later stage).
Here's proof:
The file cannot be found because the path doesn't exist ^. You can also see UnixCopyFile and Files.copy as evidence for an attempt to copy the file.
Tldr; OS-Scape is a Trojan. Delete and change passwords.
