Slow Fog released a security warning stating that it has recently received multiple reports of FomoPeek users' assets being stolen. After a joint investigation with the OKX security team, it was found that some affected users had previously installed or used FomoPeek versions 1.1 to 1.2, which contained malicious code.Slow Fog stated that there are modules in FomoPeek unrelated to normal business, one of which includes a kernel exploit framework targeting the iOS system, supporting eight different attack methods that can automatically select the exploitation method based on device model and iOS version. Affected systems include iOS 12 to 18.7 and iOS 26 to 26.1. If the exploitation is successful, the application may break through the iOS sandbox and access and decrypt Keychain data, leading to the leakage of private keys, mnemonic phrases, login credentials, and other sensitive files. In addition, FomoPeek also connects to hidden servers unrelated to its public services and can receive remote commands.Slow Fog indicated that its analysis of captured plaintext traffic shows that the related attack functions are currently enabled and will run automatically on a regular basis. Slow Fog recommends that users who have installed or used FomoPeek versions 1.1 to 1.2 immediately check for any anomalies in their assets, generate new private keys and mnemonic phrases on trusted devices that have never installed the application, and transfer assets to new accounts as soon as possible, while also upgrading to the latest iOS version and not continuing to use or reinstall FomoPeek.
