Apple's CVE-2026-65400 Screen Sharing flaw is under active exploitation on internet-exposed Macs to install a 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

      How are people idiots for screen sharing with zoom and getting hacked by something even Apple did not know about?

        […] screen sharing with zoom

        It’s a bit more nuanced than that and most casual users likely are not vulnerable to this exploit:

        […] requires the target Mac to have Screen Sharing or Remote Management enabled with “VNC viewers may control screen with password” configured and the attacker is already in possession of that VNC password

        Regardless, victim blaming is still lame
