Last week, Google’s Project Zero security research team posted information about a serious vulnerability in iOS. The security exploit (or group of exploits, really) allowed a “small collection of hacked websites” that would, when visited, install code to monitor certain activity on the iPhone.
The security holes were patch in iOS 12.1.4 on February 7, 2019, and there were even news reports right after the patch about the security holes that were closed. The sites that exploited the vulnerabilities were targeting an ethnic minority in China—the Uighur—and also sought to exploit holes in Android and Windows.
