"🔍 Kaspersky Unveils Scripts for Detecting Pegasus Spyware on iPhones 📱"

Kaspersky has developed scripts to detect Pegasus, Reign, and Predator spyware on iPhones. These scripts, written in Python (100% Python according to GitHub), analyze the Shutdown.log file in the iPhone's sysdiagnose archive for forensic artifacts indicative of these spywares. Infections leave traces in Shutdown.log, especially in the path "/private/var/db/". These scripts, available for macOS, Windows, and Linux, simplify spyware detection by extracting, analyzing, and parsing Shutdown.log. Open-source and under an MIT license, you can find them on GitHub.

Assessing the #security of computer systems is really hard because of "known unknowns" and "unknown unknowns". For example, there are lots of reports about #NSO #Pegasus being found on #iPhone but few about #Android. One might be tempted to conclude that Android is more secure. The truth is unfortunately much harder to pin down. For example, it is harder to detect and confirm Pegasus on Android, although it is clear that there have been plenty of infections on both platforms.

India: Damning new forensic investigation reveals repeated use of Pegasus spyware to target high-profile journalists

Amnesty International, in partnership with The Washington Post, has unearthed shocking new details about the continued use of NSO Group’s highly invasive spyware Pegasus to target prominent journalists in India, including one who had previously been a victim of an attack using the same spyware.

India targets Apple over its phone hacking notifications

The intensity of the Indian government effort to discredit and strong-arm Apple disturbed executives at the company’s headquarters, in Cupertino, Calif., and illustrated how even Silicon Valley’s most powerful tech companies can face pressure from the increasingly assertive leadership of the world’s most populous country — and one of the most critical technology markets of the coming decade.

From Gerry Shih and @JosephMenn: «A day after Apple warned independent Indian journalists and opposition party politicians in October that government hackers probably tried to break into their iPhones, officials under Prime Minister Narendra Modi promptly took action … against Apple.»

"Concrètement, cela signifie qu’au nom de la sûreté nationale, les services de renseignement européens pourraient en toute légalité déployer des logiciels espions comme ou contre des journalistes, afin d’identifier leurs sources.

It's pretty weird to me how Apple/iOS/etc. require you to type in your password for certain things, like installing an OS update. Why do you not trust the same biometric that allowed me access to the system?

@uncouth because are per definition as all can either be copied (i.e. & ) or forcibly authenticated against (i.e. like )...

And since 's is a prime target for like , it's no surprise that woth malicious is rather common...

> Pegasus może być używany nie tylko do inwigilacji, ale także do wgrywania treści do telefonu i manipulowania korespondencją. Jak potwierdziło kanadyjskie laboratorium [Citizen Lab], do telefonu polityka KO [Brejzy] wgrano ponad 800 MB danych.

Dwa lata temu pisałem, że to możliwe:

Pegasus nie nadaje się do zbierania dowodów: skąd miałoby być wiadomo, czy nie zostały za jego pomocą podrzucone?..

Ale uwaga! To może być nieporozumienie.

Niewykluczone, że było jakieś spięcie na łączach, coś zostało zgubione w tłumaczeniu.

Gdyby faktycznie na telefon Brejzy wrzucone zostało za pomocą Pegasusa ponad 800MiB danych, to była by to pierwsza tego typu potwierdzona sytuacja na świecie.

To naprawdę byłaby poważna sprawa. Oczekiwałbym, że usłyszelibyśmy o tym znacznie wcześniej.

Coś mi się tu nie do końca zgadza.

Diese Software für Eltern zum Verfolgen ihrer Kinder ist oft dieselbe, die als #Stalkerware bezeichnet wird und für die Überwachung innerhalb von Partnerschaften vermarktet wird. Eine Art #Pegasus #Spyware für das Privatleben.

Ich diskutiere darüber allerdings häufiger mit Vätern als mit Müttern. 'Big Mother' trifft's nicht so richtig.
