Apple sends security alerts to iOS 17 and older iPhones over active exploits

Apple is sending security alerts to iPhones and iPads running older versions of iOS and iPadOS to warn users of potential web-based attacks. The company is urging users to install a critical update to protect their devices from exploits like Coruna and DarkSword.

Apple is sending Lock Screen notifications to iPhones and iPads running older iOS and iPadOS versions. The notifications warn of web-based attacks and urge users to install an update. The move comes after Apple released a support document asking users to update their devices due to new iOS exploit kits. Coruna and DarkSword kits target different iOS versions. Users unable to update are advised to enable Lockdown Mode to protect against malicious web content. Apple introduced Lockdown Mode in 2022 for devices running iOS 16 and later.
