Apple releases ‘Emergency’ Patch after Advanced Spyware Targets Human Rights Activist

Apple has released iOS 9.3.5 update for iPhones and iPads to patch three zero-day vulnerabilities after a piece of spyware found targeting the iPhone used by a renowned UAE human rights defender, Ahmed Mansoor. The NSO Group is an Israeli firm that sells spying and surveillance software that secretly tracks a target’s mobile phone. Apple fixed these three vulnerabilities within ten days after being informed by two security firms, Citizen Lab and Lookout, who conducted a joint investigation. You can install the security update over-the-air (OTA) via your iPhone or iPad’s settings.
