Apple releases iOS 18 security patch against DarkSword malware
Apple has distributed security fixes for the DarkSword malware to iOS 18 users through a backported update, TechRadar reported. The move makes protections first provided in iOS 26.3 available on iOS 18, allowing users who cannot upgrade to iOS 26 or have delayed upgrading to receive the same vulnerability fixes. DarkSword can access files, photos, messages, location data and even a device’s microphone and camera, the report said.
