It has been used by multiple threat actors, including government-backed groups and financially motivated actors. The kit was first observed in February 2025 and has since been linked to campaigns involving Russian and Chinese actors. The exploit kit leverages vulnerabilities in WebKit and other components, some of which were patched by Apple but remained undocumented until later. The kit is designed to fingerprint devices and deliver appropriate exploits based on the iOS version. It avoids execution on devices in Lockdown Mode or private browsing. The Coruna exploit kit marks a shift from targeted spyware attacks to broader exploitation of iOS devices.
