Title: Mactans - Injecting Malware into iOS Devices via Malicious Chargers Post by: HCK on October 23, 2023, 04:05:26 pm Mactans - Injecting Malware into iOS Devices via Malicious Chargers
Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology deliver a remarkable presentation at the Black Hat conference, highlighting iOS security essentials and an unprecedented proof-of-concept attack that they came up with. In particular, the study provides a non-trivial perspective of how the so-called ‘walled garden model’ is implemented, with its strong points as well as shortcomings. Importantly, the Mactans concept is also overviewed in this presentation, describing the process of attacking iDevices via an especially designed charger.
