It looks like many iOS and macOS have been exposed to security breaches as reported by a research done by E.V.A. Information Security. Reportedly the threat was found in CocoaPods, which is an open-sources repository.
Around 3 million iOS and macOS apps that were built with CocoaPods have been vulnerable for around 10 years, the report highlighted.
Reportedly, the threat involves CocoaPods, which programmers use to incorporate existing software libraries into their apps. Currently, CocoaPods can be exploited to secretly introduce malicious code into apps that rely on them.
