Apple has released software to fix a security flaw, that allowed hackers to infect iPhones and Apple other devices - without users clicking on anything.
Researchers say they captured the malicious code from Pegasus spyware, made by the Israeli company NSO Group.
It was used to hack the phone of a Saudi Arabian activist.
The flaw was a “zero-day” vulnerability, a term that refers to recently discovered bugs that hackers can exploit and have not yet been patched.

Larry Magid is CEO of ConnectSafely.org, an internet safety and privacy and security organisation. He joins us live via zoom from San Francisco to discuss this.
