Apple has patched an iPhone and iPad vulnerability that may have been exploited in highly targeted attacks. This CoreGraphics flaw, known as CVE-2026-86950, can enable arbitrary code execution when a device processes a maliciously crafted file.

The vulnerability was fixed in iOS 26.7.1 and iPadOS 26.7.1 through improved bounds checking protections. Apple released these updates on September 28, after receiving a report that the flaw may have been exploited against specific targeted individuals using iOS versions released before iOS 27.

Blockchain security researchers warn cryptocurrency users to update their devices as soon as possible due to recent iOS exploitation activity targeting sensitive wallet information directly.
