Apple and Google Launch Cross-Platform Feature to Detect Unwanted Bluetooth Tracking Devices

Apple and Google rolled out a cross-platform Detecting Unwanted Location Trackers (DULT) feature to alert users when unidentified Bluetooth trackers move with them, addressing misuse of devices (e.g., AirTags) for stalking; concurrently Apple backported patches for a serious RTKit/kernel vulnerability (CVE-2024-23296) — reported as exploited in the wild — and included fixes for additional flaws in iOS 17.5 and macOS Sonoma 14.5.
