Apple macOS Screen Sharing Flaw Exploited on Internet-Exposed Macs to Install Monero Miner
Well I guess I’m eating crow for suggesting MacOS was secure. JESUS lmfao, this one is nasty.
“Would Rust have solved this” oops, nope
thehackernews.com/2026/08/apple-macos-screen-sharing-flaw.htmlWho in their right mind is exposing them directly to the internet? Poorly configured routers to blame here I assume?
I haven’t seen full details on this yet but I’m curious how much of this is UPnP type situations. Routers have been doing much better with it being disabled by default compared to past however.
