Reports say iPhones belonging to 37 journalists, most of whom worked at Al Jazeera, were hacked using Israeli NSO Group software. The hackers reportedly used an iMessage vulnerability, with the zero-click attack leaving no trace of the infiltrators. Reports indicate hackers had access to passwords, microphone audio and could even take pictures using the device's camera. It's worth noting that the iPhone bug in question was reportedly fixed with the latest iOS 14 software.
