Chinese Mac and iOS users targeted by new ‘WireLurker’ malware capable of infecting non-jailbroken devices | 9to5Mac: "The New York Times reports that a security firm called Palo Alto Networks has uncovered a new form of Apple-focused malware that is capable of infecting non-jailbroken iOS devices. Typically when such software pops up, as it does from time to time, one of the key factors that allows the malicious code to run on iOS is whether the device is jailbroken. The new ‘WireLurker’ malware, however, is installed on the mobile device over USB by an infected Mac."
