We at Kaspersky’s Global Research and Analysis Team monitor over 900 APT (advanced persistent threat) groups and operations. At the end of each year, we take a step back to assess the most complex and sophisticated attacks that have shaped the threat landscape. These insights enable us to anticipate emerging trends and build a clearer picture of what the APT landscape may look like in the year ahead.

On March 5th, the company addressed the zero-day vulnerability (tracked as CVE-2024-23296) for newer iPhone, iPad, and Mac models.
Today, Apple backported the March security updates to address this security flaw on iOS 16.7.8, iPadOS 16.7.8 , and macOS Ventura 13.6.7 with improved input validation.
The list of devices patched today includes iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone X, iPad 5th generation, iPad Pro 9.7-inch, and iPad Pro 12.9-inch 1st generation.
## Three zero-days exploited in attacks patched in 2024
Apple has yet to disclose who disclosed the zero-day or whether it was discovered internally, and it has provided no information on the nature of the attacks exploiting it in the wild.
