smith (CVE-2023-32434)
This write-up presents an exploit for a vulnerability in the XNU kernel: Assigned CVE-2023-32434. Fixed in iOS 16.5.1 and macOS 13.4.1. Reachable from the WebContent sandbox and might have been actively exploited. *Note that this CVE fixed multiple integer overflows, so it is unclear whether or not the integer overflow used in my exploit was also used in-the-wild. Moreover, if it was, it might not have been exploited in the same way. The exploit has been successfully tested on: iOS 16.3, 16.3.1, 16.4 and 16.5 (iPhone 14 Pro Max) macOS 13.1 and 13.4 (MacBook Air M2 2022) All code snippets shown below are from xnu-8792.81.2.

Apple Confirms Governments Using Push Notifications to Surveil Users - MacRumors
Apple Confirms Governments Using Push Notifications to Surveil Users - MacRumors
Unidentified governments are surveilling smartphone users by tracking push notifications that move through Google's and Apple's servers, a US... In a letter to the Department of Justice, Senator Ron Wyden said foreign officials were demanding the data from the tech giants to track smartphones. The traffic flowing from apps that send push notifications put the companies "in a unique position to facilitate government surveillance of how users are using particular apps," Wyden said. He asked the Department of Justice to "repeal or modify any policies" that hindered public discussions of push notification spying.

Spyware Targeting Against Serbian Civil Society - The Citizen Lab
Spyware Targeting Against Serbian Civil Society - The Citizen Lab
We confirm that two members of Serbian civil society were targeted with spyware earlier this year. Both have publicly criticized the Serbian government. We are not naming the individuals at this time by their request. The Citizen Lab’s technical analysis of forensic artifacts was conducted in support of an investigation led by Access Now in collaboration with the SHARE Foundation. Researchers from Amnesty International independently analyzed the cases and their conclusions match our findings.

iLeakage
iLeakage
We present iLeakage, a transient execution side channel targeting the Safari web browser present on Macs, iPads and iPhones. iLeakage shows that the Spectre attack is still relevant and exploitable, even after nearly 6 years of effort to mitigate it since its discovery. We show how an attacker can induce Safari to render an arbitrary webpage, subsequently recovering sensitive information present within it using speculative execution. In particular, we demonstrate how Safari allows a malicious webpage to recover secrets from popular high-value targets, such as Gmail inbox content. Finally, we demonstrate the recovery of passwords, in case these are autofilled by credential managers.

New Apple iOS 16 Exploit Enables Stealthy Cellular Access Under Fake Airplane Mode
New Apple iOS 16 Exploit Enables Stealthy Cellular Access Under Fake Airplane Mode
Cybersecurity researchers have documented a novel post-exploit persistence technique on iOS 16 that could be abused to fly under the radar and maintain access to an Apple device even when the victim believes it is offline. The method "tricks the victim into thinking their device's Airplane Mode works when in reality the attacker (following successful device exploit) has planted an artificial Airplane Mode which edits the UI to display Airplane Mode icon and cuts internet connection to all apps except the attacker application," Jamf Threat Labs researchers Hu Ke and Nir Avraham said in a report shared with The Hacker News.
