Binance warns of FomoPeek malware in App Store stealing seed phrases

  • Malicious modules were added in FomoPeek 1.1 (September 9) and 1.2 (September 12), and removed in 1.3 (September 17)
  • The framework contains 8 exploit methods for iOS 12.0–18.7.2 and 26.0–26.1
  • SlowMist and OKX identified two modules unrelated to the app's functions
  • Self-custody wallet owners are advised to create new wallets on clean devices
Why it matters: The malware passed Apple's moderation and attacks the phone itself rather than a single app, putting the keys of all crypto wallets on the device at risk.
