Cyberattackers have used a bogus mobile device management (MDM) system to target a small – but presumably high-value – set of iPhones in India in a cyberespionage campaign that has some unusual hallmarks.
The fitness app Polar Flow exposes the whereabouts of some of its high-profile users, including “spies” and those with sensitive positions in the military.
The attack allows malicious applications to break out of their sandbox and access the entire operating system, giving an adversary complete control of the targeted device.
