Crafted attacks exploit a previously unknown bug (CVE‑2025‑43300) in Apple’s Image I/O system that processes image files. That means an innocent‑looking picture, delivered through apps like Telegram, can silently hijack your device—without you ever clicking—then drain your crypto wallets. Update your device right now.Apple rushed out emergency patches across all platforms—iOS 18.6.2, macOS Sonoma 14.7.8, Ventura 13.7.8, and their equivalents on iPad and other systems. These fixes plug the hole that's already being used in real-world attacks. The urgency comes from the irreversible nature of crypto transactions—once funds are gone, they're gone for good. Be sure to apply the patch manually rather than waiting for automatic updates to avoid being caught off guard.
