Google just disclosed a vulnerability that targets iPhone crypto wallets and could have affected an estimated 270 million Apple devices.

The DarkSword exploit, which strings together multiple zero-day vulnerabilities, is still live today and affects iPhones running iOS 18.4 through 18.7, updates that were released between April and September last year.

Up-to-date Apple devices use iOS 26.3.1. However, because many people don’t automatically upgrade, 24% of all iPhones still use iOS 18 according to Apple’s own data.
