'Operation Triangulation' Spyware Attackers Bypass iPhone Memory Protections

Operation Triangulation is a highly sophisticated, multi-stage zero-click iMessage espionage campaign active since 2019 that exploits multiple iOS and kernel zero-days plus an undocumented Apple SoC hardware feature to bypass hardware memory protections and install TriangleDB spyware on targeted iPhones; Kaspersky GReAT detailed the attack chain, CVEs involved, affected targets (including diplomats and enterprises), and recommended mitigations such as disabling iMessage/FaceTime, applying iOS updates, and using EDR where possible.
