Spyware software: Apple warns German parliamentarians
Translated title. Original: Logiciel espion : Apple alerte des parlementaires allemands
German officials report Apple alerting several Bundestag members to mercenary spyware; infection status unclear. The spyware, exemplified by Pegasus, targets specific individuals via sophisticated, often zero-click methods, granting access to communications and device functions. Apple and BSI advise careful remediation, including updates, device replacement if needed, and strict authentication; notifications emphasize not clicking links or sharing credentials. The attacker identity is unknown.
