IFF Assessment
FOE
This is bad news for defenders as it highlights active exploitation of vulnerabilities in widely used operating systems.
Defender Context
Defenders should ensure that all legacy devices running older iOS and iPadOS versions are updated promptly to mitigate the risk of compromise by sophisticated spyware. This also underscores the importance of maintaining up-to-date systems, even for devices that may not be on the latest main operating system releases.
