Apple Rushes to Patch Zero-Day Flaws Exploited for Pegasus Spyware on iPhones

On Thursday, Apple released emergency security updates for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS to address two zero-day flaws that have been exploited in the wild to deliver NSO Group’s Pegasus mercenary spyware.

The exploit chain was capable of compromising iPhones running the latest version of iOS.

The latest updates also arrive more than a month after the company shipped fixes for an actively exploited kernel flaw CVE-2023-38606.

According to the lab, iPhones are not safe at all against simple espionage.

It warns that iPhones have an image of being the most secure phone… but in reality, iPhones are Not safe at All against Simple Espionage.

That said, the exploit is said to bypass the BlastDoor sandbox framework set up by Apple to mitigate zero-click attacks.
