Critical iOS 0days – Daily Security Byte

August 26, 2016 By Corey Nachreiner

If you use iOS, you should update immediately. Researchers have uncovered a very targeted, politically motivated attack campaign that leverages three Apple iOS zero day vulnerabilities to allow attackers to completely hijack your iPhone. Though this is a highly targeted, likely nation sponsored attack, now that the world knows about these vulnerabilities, it’s just a matter of time before others exploit them. Watch today’s Daily Byte to learn more about this campaign and update your iPhones and iPads as soon as you can.
