Xsser Trojan Spies on Jailbroken iOS Devices in Hong Kong

The iOS version, a mobile remote access Trojan dubbed Xsser by Lacoon Mobile Security, affects only jailbroken iOS devices. Lacoon is calling this the first such iOS Trojan used in a China-sponsored nation-state attack, but in April a German security consultancy called SektionEins reported on an iOS malware campaign it called Unflod Baby Panda.
