Darksword iPhone spyware found on Ukrainian websites targets up to 270 million devices. UNC6353, a suspected Russian espionage actor, has been using the Coruna exploit kit since last summer, and in December 2025 started leveraging DarkSword exploits against Ukrainian targets. The activity continued through March 2026 in watering hole attacks with compromised websites that deploy the GHOSTBLADE malware to exfitrate data from compromised targets.
