WireLurker: A new breed of iOS and OS X malware that has infected thousands

2014-11-06 15:21:00| Extremetech

There's a new and particularly clever piece of malware in town called WireLurker, and rather unusually it targets iOS and OS X. Even more remarkably, WireLurker is surprisingly virulent, possibly already infecting hundreds of thousands of iOS and OS X users. While OS X malware isn't that rare, it's almost unheard of for iOS to be susceptible to such attacks -- and no, even if your device isn't jailbroken, you can still be infected.
