March 5th (Cointelegraph) — Google’s Threat Analysis Group has uncovered a new iOS exploit kit named “Coruna,” which is targeting iPhone users in cryptocurrency theft campaigns. The kit targets devices running iOS 13.0 through 17.2.1, including 23 exploit programs and five complete attack chains—some leveraging previously unknown (zero-day) vulnerabilities. Attacks are deployed via spoofed crypto-related websites, such as phishing pages masquerading as the WEEX exchange. When users with vulnerable iPhones visit these malicious sites, the attack code runs automatically. It scans devices for sensitive data (mnemonic phrases, backup phrases, bank account details) and attempts to siphon assets from crypto apps like Uniswap and MetaMask. Google researchers strongly advise iPhone users to update their devices to the latest iOS version immediately. If an update isn’t possible, enable Apple’s Lockdown Mode to boost protection.

These moves indicate the Trump administration apparently failed to adequately prepare in advance for a large-scale war. U.S. Central Command is requesting the Pentagon to send more military intelligence personnel to its Tampa, Florida, headquarters to support actions against Iran for at least 100 days—potentially extending through September, far beyond Trump’s initial four-week timeline. While the U.S. and Israel may continue to escalate tensions, the likelihood of other countries directly conducting offensive strikes against Iran is decreasing. Iran has been significantly weakened, with drone and missile strikes against foreign targets far less frequent than in the conflict’s early stages. Meanwhile, the U.K., France, and Germ
