Cybersecurity expert Kaspersky has discovered critical vulnerabilities in Apple's iOS and macOS operating systems, including a flaw that allows attackers to gain access to user details and root privileges on iOS, potentially compromising the security of crypto assets. To protect against such incidents, users must update their iOS devices to version 16.4.1 and Mac to macOS 13.3.1. Slow Mist, a blockchain security firm, confirmed the seriousness of the vulnerabilities and urged users to update their devices. Kaspersky recently reported a 40% increase in cryptocurrency phishing attacks year-on-year in 2022, with 5,040,520 attacks detected.
