L'initiative Project Zero de Google se poursuit et ses chercheurs en sécurité ont ainsi dévoilé trois failles d'OS X jugées sévères. Apple a été informé de ces vulnérabilités trois mois plus tôt, mais n'a pas publié de correctifs. Learn more: - http://www.scoop.it/t/apple-mac-ios4-ipad-iphone-and-in-security

Im Jahr 2014 blockierten die Lösungen von Kaspersky Lab insgesamt 3.693.936 Infektionsversuche unter Mac OS X. Die Experten von Kaspersky Lab entdeckten 1.499 neue Schadprogramme für Mac OS X, das sind 200 Schädlinge weniger als im entsprechenden Vorjahreszeitraum. ===> Jeder zweite Anwender von Apple-Produkten war einem Angriff ausgesetzt. <=== Im Laufe des Jahres war jeder Mac-OS-X-User durchschnittlich neunmal mit einer Cyberbedrohung für sein Betriebssystem konfrontiert.

Nach der vergleichsweise harmlosen WireLurker-Angriffsmethode sorgt inzwischen eine weitaus bedrohlichere iOS-Schwachstelle für Schlagzeilen. Die Angriffsart «Masque Attack» hat es dabei auf alle iPhone-Nutzer abgesehen, auch auf iPhones ohne Jailbreak. Die Cyberkriminellen seien sogar in der Lage, installierte iOS-Apps zu überschreiben. Fällt jemand auf die Masche rein, wird beispielsweise unbemerkt eine tägliche Anwendung wie Gmail überschreiben. So könnte z.B. eine E-Banking-App als Keylogger-Anwendung missbraucht werden, um Bankdaten von Nutzern auszuspionieren. Learn more: - http://www.scoop.it/t/apple-mac-ios4-ipad-iphone-and-in-security

In short, the initial WireLurker infection comes from a third-party Mac OS X app store (in this case, the Chinese Maiyadi app store). Once you download and install an infected app onto your OS X machine, that’s where the fun begins. If you then plug an iOS device into an infected OS X machine, WireLurker installs itself on the iOS device. By using iOS’s enterprise provisioning system — a method usually reserved for companies to side-load apps directly onto corporate iOS devices — WireLurker can even infect non-jailbroken devices.

WireLurker monitors any iOS device connected via USB with an infected OS X computer and installs downloaded third-party applications or automatically generated malicious applications onto the device, regardless of whether it is jailbroken. This is the reason we call it “wire lurker”. Researchers have demonstrated similar methods to attack non-jailbroken devices before; however, this malware combines a number of techniques to successfully realize a new brand of threat to all iOS devices.

Details are finally emerging about a serious vulnerability in Apple's OS X Yosemite, called "Rootpipe" which allows root access by attackers. The privilege escalation vulnerability was discovered by Swedish hacker Emil Kvarnhammar, who has been asked by Apple to withhold details until January 2015 -- since Apple likely wouldn't allow details until they have a fix, this is probably when users can expect a patch. Rootpipe is a privilege escalation from admin to root so switching to a non-admin account would clearly be a good thing," Kvarnhammar said.

L’iPhone 5S a été mis à mal par une équipe de Corée du Sud, qui a réussi à profiter d'une combinaison de deux bugs dans Safari pour en prendre le contrôle. Le Samsung Galaxy S5 non plus n'a pas réisté aux assauts des hackers. Deux équipes ont profité de failles dans la gestion du protocole NFC pour en prendre le contrôle. le Nexus 5 a lui aussi été piraté via NFC, grâce à une technique étonnante, qui a consisté à forcer un appairage Bluetooth entre deux appareils.

Seinen Ursprung hat der Trojaner wohl in China, die Entdecker berichten, dass anfangs über 400 Apps im Maiyadi App Store, einem alternativen Appstore für OS X, infiziert wurden. Diese Anwendungen greifen dann die iPhones und iPads der Opfer an. Da die betroffenen Apps bislang über 350.000 Mal heruntergeladen wurden, ist die Zahl der theoretisch infizierten Apple-Geräte entsprechend groß.
