Show Notes
Coruna, a sophisticated iPhone hacking toolkit, has been traced to attacks in Ukraine and China, with links to Russian spies and Chinese cybercriminals. The toolkit, believed to be from U.S. military contractor L3Harris, includes twenty-three components targeting iPhones from iOS 13 to 17.2.1. Former L3Harris employees confirm the tools match their Trenchant project, sold exclusively to U.S. government and Five Eyes allies. A former Trenchant manager, Peter Williams, pleaded guilty to selling hacking tools to a Russian broker, risking millions of devices worldwide. New analysis ties Coruna exploits to Operation Triangulation, a 2023 campaign targeting Russian iPhones. L3Harris has not commented, and the full path from Western hands to foreign hackers remains unclear, raising concerns about leaks fueling espionage and crime in the spy tool trade.
