PATCHiT: Apple FORCEDENTRY exploit CVE-2021-30860

Citizen Lab, Recently discovered the Apple exploit and notified Apple about it. The group published a report about it Monday.

They designated the FORCEDENTRY exploit CVE-2021–30860, and describe it as “processing a maliciously crafted PDF may lead to arbitrary code execution.”

The malicious software takes control of an Apple device by first sending a message through iMessage, the company’s default messaging app, “processing a maliciously crafted PDF may lead to arbitrary code execution” and then hacking through a flaw in how Apple processes images

Apple on Monday advised all users to update their devices after researchers warned that the Israeli spyware company NSO Group’s Pegasus spyware, had developed a way to take control over nearly any Apple computer, watch or iPhone.
