FinFisher hacking software is used to spy on intelligence targets’ computers. It was used by British agencies, who had offered the malware to Egypt’s feared secret police.
Apple was informed about the flaw in iTunes in 2008. Brian Krebs, a security writer, said Apple did not patch the software until earlier this month, a delay of more than three years. Krebs added:
A prominent security researcher warned Apple about this dangerous vulnerability in mid-2008, yet the company waited more than 1,200 days to fix the flaw.
