Apple Warns Users in 110 Countries They May Be Targets of Mercenary Spyware
Apple sent mercenary spyware threat notifications to users in 110 countries, including Ukrainian military members, in what researchers call an unprecedented notification wave.
Apple notified an unspecified number of users in 110 countries that they may have been targeted by mercenary spyware attacks, bringing total notifications to over 150 countries since the program began in late 2021. Apple does not attribute the attacks but describes the alerts as high-confidence indicators of individual targeting against journalists, activists, politicians, and diplomats. Citizen Lab's John Scott-Railton called the geographic scale unprecedented, and Access Now reported a record number of help requests, with recipients including members of Ukraine's military. Apple advised users to update devices, enable 2FA and Lockdown Mode, and use Stolen Device Protection.

Apple warned hundreds of users of mercenary spyware attacks
Apple sent threat notifications to users in 110 countries warning of targeted mercenary spyware attacks and recommending Lockdown Mode.
Apple sent a new round of threat notifications warning users in 110 countries they may have been individually targeted by mercenary spyware, adding to alerts issued in more than 150 countries since the program began in 2021. The company says such attacks are vastly more sophisticated than criminal activity, cost millions of dollars, and typically target journalists, activists, politicians, diplomats, and lawyers. Apple recommends verifying notices directly at account.apple.com, enabling Lockdown Mode, keeping devices updated, and seeking expert help such as Access Now's Digital Security Helpline. Citizen Lab researchers note the alerts can reveal that entire communities are under targeted surveillance.

Microsoft Links 30+ Rotating Domains to MacSync Stealer Infrastructure
Microsoft links 30+ rotating domains to the MacSync macOS infostealer, confirming active credential and file exfiltration through chunked HTTP PUT uploads.
Microsoft Defender Experts correlated 30+ domains with MacSync Stealer, requiring aligned endpoint and network behaviors (process ancestry, command-line patterns, /curl/, /dynamic?txd=, and /gate?buildtxd= paths, API-key headers, chunked HTTP PUT parameters) to link infrastructure. Execution begins from an interactive zsh session consistent with ClickFix social engineering, with curl retrieving and Base64/gunzip decoding the payload, followed by collection of Keychain data, browser credentials, SSH keys, AWS credentials, Kubernetes configs, and Apple Notes. Data is zipped to /tmp/osalogging.zip, chunked, uploaded via HTTP PUT, and artifacts are deleted afterward; the analysis builds on RST Cloud's May 8 findings and overlaps with Microsoft's earlier 250+ domain ClickFix campaign distributing MacSync and Atomic Stealer (AMOS).
