Beware: Another zero-click Apple spyware maker just popped up on the radar again

to infiltrate devices. Pegasus's exploit, known as ForcedEntry, involved taking advantage of how iOS processed images so that carefully crafted malicious files could achieve arbitrary code execution once delivered to a victim's handheld.

That said, Apple in 2021 killed off the vulnerability used by ForcedEntry, which also apparently stopped QuaDream's spyware from working properly. So it's possible the 2021 fix stopped EndOfDays dead because EndOfDays and ForcedEntry really were relying on the same flaw. Alternatively, QuaDream had another exploit at the time that was stopped by Apple's fix, and EndOfDays is a separate exploit. We've tried to seek clarification on this point.

Both Microsoft and Citizen Lab included indicators of compromise in their reports, but Microsoft noted that such zero-click attacks can be difficult to prevent or detect after a device has been compromised. Their reports both detail methods used by the malware to remove traces of its existence, such as removing calendar entries used to launch the attack after infection has occurred.
