Is my Messages app messed up?

[urbanracer34]

2019 16 inch MBP running big sur. 11.6

This morning I noticed my Messages app was out of whack. The date on the application is out of whack, the code signing is valid from apple and the version number is (I think?) correct for this version of OS.

Attaching screenshots below.

Malwarebytes came up clear on multiple scans.

What should I do? This machine is the only one running Big Sur in my house.

Isn't the system partition protected by crypto?

Nothing wrong. Everything that is under Apple's read-only volume is timestamped Jan 1, 2020.

Why they did that, no idea.

Great to hear. Thanks for calming my fears that my system was compromised.
