Report: Second Israeli company exploited iPhone flaw to hack into phones
A second Israeli company beyond NSO Group exploited a flaw in iPhone security to hack into phones, numerous sources tell Reuters.
Five individuals with knowledge of the matter say QuaDream gained the ability last year, around the same time as NSO, letting the companies break into the phones without the user needing to click any link.
Bill Marczak, a security researcher with Citizen Lab, tells Reuters that the company’s so-called “zero-click” abilities appear to be “on par” with NSO’s.
