Researchers at digital watchdog group Citizen Lab said on Thursday that they have discovered a critical flaw in Apple devices. This flaw has been exploited by the Pegasus spyware, linked to the Israeli firm NSO Group. The vulnerability allowed iPhones running iOS 16.6 to be compromised without any user interaction. Apple has since released updates to address the issue.
