Apple Patches Passwords App Vulnerability in iOS 18.2 After Three Months of Phishing Risk; New Attacks Target Mac Users

A recently patched vulnerability in Apple's Passwords app exposed users to phishing attacks for nearly three months after its launch with iOS 18. The flaw allowed bad actors to potentially access sensitive information on privileged networks. The issue has been addressed in the iOS 18.2 update. In addition to this vulnerability, a new phishing campaign has emerged, targeting Mac users after previous attacks shifted focus from Windows users due to enhanced security measures in the Microsoft Edge browser. The ongoing phishing threats highlight the evolving tactics of cybercriminals as they adapt to improved defenses in popular software.
