Apple issues security updates to fix zero-day flaw used in Chrome attacks — update your iPhone and Mac right now

Apple users should be sure to update their devices to iOS 18.6, particularly if they're also Chrome users, as the latest software version includes a security patch that addresses a high-severity exploit that has been targeting the browser in zero-day attacks. As reported by Bleeping Computer, the zero-day flaw in question (tracked as CVE-2025-6558) involves an incorrect validation of untrusted input in an open-source graphics abstraction layer. It then processes GPU commands and translates API calls, which enables remote attackers to execute arbitrary code within the browser's GPU process via specially crafted HTML pages. This could potentially allow them to escape the sandbox that isolates browser processes from the underlying operating system. All this to say that, according to BGR, if you don't update Chrome, you could be opening yourself up to being attacked just by visiting a malicious website. Attackers could run code on your device and bypass the protections that normally keep your browser safe and from there perform other malicious activities like running malware on your phone, stealing passwords, deploying ransomware or botnets or recording clipboard or webcam views. The flaw was discovered in June by the Google TAG team and reported to Chrome, who patched it in July and tagged it as actively exploited. As per usual, Google has yet to provide much additional information about the attacks. However, it is well-known that TAG is often responsible for discovering flaws that are exploited by government-sponsored threat actors in targeted campaigns. Apple released WebKit security updates on Tuesday that addressed the vulnerability, which affects iOS 18.6 and iPadOS 18.6, macOS Sequoia 15.6, iPadOS 17.7.9, tvOS 18.6, visionOS 2.6, watchOS 11.6. In its security statement, Apple said that 'Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to an unexpected Safari crash.' CISA (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency) added this security bug to its catalog of vulnerabilities known to be exploited in attacks on July 22, requiring federal agencies patch their software by August 12th. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Updating your phone, computer and of course, your browser, is something you should be doing regularly and a zero-day flaw like this one which could be exploited by hackers in their attacks is exactly the reason why.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Fraud Detection and Prevention (Know Your User), 2025: A Frost RadarT Report" has been added to offering. The fraud detection and prevention (FDP) market has grown significantly, driven by the frequency, sophistication, and volume of fraudulent attacks. The increase in digital transactions as well as companies' digital transformation initiatives have created a large attack surface. Businesses are adopting FDP solutions powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning to protect sensitive data and ensure compliance with regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation and Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. Artificial intelligence and machine learning enhance solution capabilities, offering real-time monitoring and analysis of transactions, pattern identification, biometric authentication, behavioral biometrics, device intelligence, and more. Know your user (KYU) is an essential component of the FDP framework. The KYU approach utilizes behavioral biometrics and authenticates the claimed identity of the user without identifying who the user is. Variables collected during the user's interaction with the device or application are unique and confirm who users say they are. Some of these variables are mouse activity, keystroke pattern, device angle, typing cadence, geolocation, number of touch events, and mouse travel distance. In conjunction with other data, such as geo-location and device intelligence, FDP systems upon identifying a risk may increase user friction and step up authentication. For good customers, passive and continuous authentication throughout the process contributes to a seamless experience. It also enables enterprises to balance the user experience and security.
