The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), known as America's cyber defense agency, has recently issued a warning about active attacks targeting iOS devices, including iPhones. This is a significant concern as CISA is an official website of the U.S. government and is responsible for protecting the nation's critical infrastructure.
The warning specifically addresses a high-rated vulnerability, known as CVE-2022-48618, which affects devices running certain versions of iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS. This vulnerability allows malicious actors to bypass pointer authentication, posing significant risks to federal agencies and other organizations.
