Title: URGENT APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE Post by: LFC_Bitcoin on September 14, 2021, 12:22:17 PM Please update your devices.
https://twitter.com/forbes/status/1437517476435308551?s=21 Apple has released iOS 14.8, an urgent iPhone update that all users should install now. That’s because it comes with a warning—iOS 14.8 is an important security only upgrade for two vulnerabilities that Apple believes adversaries are already using to attack people’s iPhones. https://www.forbes.com/sites/kateoflahertyuk/2021/09/13/ios-148-update-now-warning-issued-to-all-iphone-users/ Title: Re: URGENT APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE Post by: NeuroticFish on September 14, 2021, 01:43:38 PM It would therefore be safe to assume iOS 14.8 patches the issue associated with the Pegasus spyware ... so yeah, those with Apple devices should hurry with the patching.

The article referenced in the OP also states that the IOS 14.8 should also patch Pegasus spyware.
There’s an interesting article by Ledger written last month, explaining how these type of exploits could be used to get hold of cryto (not on Ledger, but Metamask, Blockchain wallet and so forth) if not addressed before somebody determines it to be a path to pursue. see: https://www.ledger.com/blog/pegasus-spyware-is-your-crypto-safe Title: Re: URGENT APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE Post by: Mbitr on September 14, 2021, 05:39:51 PM Wow - thanks - read this thread and quickly updated my devices :)
And I second what DdmrDdmr - might be worth moving to…..? It will soon get lost in off topic |
