WireLurker

"WireLurker" is a type of malware that was discovered in 2014 and targeted iOS devices. The malware was spread through infected third-party app stores in China and was able to infect both jailbroken and non-jailbroken devices. Once a device was infected, WireLurker was able to steal personal information, such as contacts and messages, as well as download and install additional malicious apps. The malware was also able to listen in on phone calls and track the device's location...

WireLurker was able to infect devices by taking advantage of a vulnerability in the iOS operating system that allowed it to install malicious apps onto a device without the user's knowledge. The malware was able to spread through infected apps that were downloaded from third-party app stores, and it was able to infect devices by using a USB connection between the device and a computer.

Apple has taken steps to address the threat posed by WireLurker, including revoking the enterprise certificates used by the malware and blocking the apps that were being used to spread the malware. However, it is still important for iOS users to be cautious when downloading apps from third-party app stores and to keep their devices updated to the latest version of iOS to protect against known vulnerabilities.
