According to cybersecurity company Kaspersky, crypto-stealing malware has been found on Apple's App Store for the first time.

This is the first known case of an app infected with OCR (Optical Character Recognition) spyware being found in Apple’s official app marketplace.'

For the first time, the Apple App Store is sharing malware privileges with the Google Play Store as apps infected with screenshot-reading SparkCat malware have been discovered on both platforms by cybersecurity software firm Kaspersky.

China is the latest regulator probing Apple's App Store, as developers want lower fees, and third-party app stores and payment systems.

Kaspersky discovered ‘SparkCat’ malware aimed at stealing cryptocurrency in multiple iOS apps.

Apple might have a QC problem because it appears that stealer apps are making its way into the App Store and onto iPhones.

The malware targeting Android and iOS is hidden in inconspicuous-looking apps. These apps gain access to photos and use text recognition.

A newly discovered malware campaign is stealing cryptocurrency from iOS by exploiting vulnerabilities in apps available on the App Store.
