Apple has recently issued the iOS 18.3.1 update, which addresses a critical zero-day vulnerability discovered in the Messages application. This flaw, stemming from a logical error, permitted attackers to exploit iCloud links to distribute malicious photos or videos, thereby gaining unauthorized access to devices. Evidence indicates that this vulnerability has been harnessed in sophisticated, targeted attacks against specific individuals, including two European journalists who were compromised using the "Graphite" spyware created by Paragon. Apple emphasized that the vulnerability could be exploited for highly targeted attacks but refrained from disclosing further specifics.
