Apple

LightSpy spyware has targeted iPhones, leveraging its destructive capabilities to disable the booting process of compromised devices. It employs a modular framework with advanced spying features, stealing sensitive data across various applications and personal files, recording audio, and gaining near-total control over the device. The updated version uses additional plugins to disrupt booting and includes a range of other malicious features. Despite using an older, patched vulnerability for infection, its recent deployment and functionalities such as file deletion, freezing devices, and faking push notifications to redirect users, raise significant concerns. The operators are suspected to be of Chinese origin, distributing the spyware through watering hole attacks.
