Researchers dropped a bombshell: a couple of European journalists got their iPhones hacked by Paragon’s spyware. But fear not, Apple has swooped in and fixed the bug responsible for the intrusion.
### The Fix is In
The tech folks at Citizen Lab spilled the beans, revealing that Apple had nipped the bug in the bud with the release of iOS 18.3.1 on February 10. This update put a stop to the shenanigans that were allowing hackers to sneak into iPhones.
### What Went Down
Turns out, a sneaky little flaw was lurking in the shadows, waiting to pounce. A glitch in the system made it possible for a malicious photo or video shared through iCloud Link to trigger a breach. Crafty, right? Thankfully, Apple caught wind of this and took swift action.
### The Aftermath
The dust settled, and it was revealed that Italian journalist Ciro Pellegrino and another mystery journalist were the unlucky targets of Paragon’s spyware. Talk about a close call!
And that’s the latest scoop, folks. Stay safe out there in the digital jungle!
