New DarkSword Exploit Confirms Mass iOS Attacks Are Now a Serious, Wide-Spread Business Risk

DarkSword is a mass-scale iOS exploit kit delivered via watering-hole JavaScript that leverages six vulnerabilities across two exploit chains to achieve full device compromise of iPhones running iOS 18.4–18.7, enabling extensive surveillance and theft of sensitive data; Apple issued patches (iOS 26.3/26.3.1) and organizations are urged to urgently patch devices and deploy Mobile EDR to mitigate this zero-click, zero-alert threat.
