According to Cointelegraph, SlowMist stated that it has not yet independently confirmed that the analyzed Safari attack sample has led to actual crypto asset theft. Existing technical evidence primarily covers iOS 18.4 through 18.6.2, while the previously circulated claim that "iOS 13 through iOS 26.5 are all affected" remains preliminary. Analysis by SlowMist reveals that the malicious Safari page exploits a chain of vulnerabilities previously patched by Apple to attempt access to the Apple Keychain, app files, and shared data, which may involve information stored in crypto wallets. However, the presence of exfiltration-capable code does not mean data has been successfully extracted from all targeted wallets. SlowMist continues to recommend that iPhone users promptly install the latest iOS security updates and avoid opening suspicious links.
Odaily reports: Blockchain security firm SlowMist has stated that the attack samples it analyzed targeting iPhone Safari have not been linked to any confirmed incidents of crypto asset theft. The available technical evidence primarily covers iOS 18.4 through 18.6.2, and whether iOS 26.5 is affected still lacks reproducible technical evidence.The attack reuses the previously disclosed DarkSword attack chain technique, loading code through malicious web pages disguised as free virtual private server services. The samples contain components that access Apple Keychain, extract and decrypt stored information, and can also access application files and shared data.SlowMist recommends that iPhone users install the latest iOS security updates available for their devices and avoid clicking suspicious links. Users who suspect their wallet private keys or seed phrases have been compromised should generate a new wallet on a clean device and transfer their assets. (Cointelegraph)

Odaily reports: SlowMist Chief Information Security Officer 23pds has stated that attackers are exploiting the Darksword vulnerability to bypass iOS security mechanisms through Safari, take control of devices, and extract private keys and other data from self-custodial crypto wallets. The vulnerability was previously used in attacks targeting users in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Malaysia, and Ukraine.Google Threat Intelligence Group previously disclosed that Darksword initially only affected iOS versions 18.4 through 18.7. According to 23pds, attackers have now adapted it to iOS 26.5, though this assessment has not yet been officially verified.Attacks typically begin with social engineering. After users click on malicious links sent via social media or messaging apps, their devices may be rooted and wallet data extracted. Users should promptly update their phone's operating system and avoid visiting website links sent by strangers. Separately, three investors who lost nearly $1.8 million in Bitcoin after downloading fake wallet apps from Apple's official App Store have filed a lawsuit against Apple. (Bitcoin.com News)
Odaily reports, according to monitoring by Bitcoin News, security researchers have discovered that versions 1.1 and 1.2 of FomoPeek, distributed through the Apple App Store, contain an iOS exploit framework capable of escaping the app sandbox, enabling the extraction of keychain data, wallet files, and mnemonic phrases. SlowMist has linked the app to multiple theft incidents and traced nearly $580,000 in stolen USDT flowing into a primary address. Users who have installed either of the aforementioned versions should treat any keys accessible on that iPhone as compromised, generate new mnemonic phrases on a clean device, and immediately transfer their funds.
