Apple's Podcasts app on both iOS and Mac has been exhibiting strange behavior for months, spontaneously launching and presenting users with obscure religion, spirituality and education podcasts they never subscribed to -- and at least one of these podcasts contains a link attempting a cross-site scripting attack, 404 Media reports. Joseph Cox, a journalist at the outlet, documented the issue after repeatedly finding his Mac had launched the Podcasts app on its own, presenting bizarre podcasts with titles containing garbled code, external URLs to Spotify and Google Play, and in one case, what appears to be XSS attack code embedded directly in the podcast title itself. Patrick Wardle, a macOS security expert and creator of Objective-See, confirmed he could replicate similar behavior: simply visiting a website can trigger the Podcasts app to open and load an attacker-chosen podcast without any user prompt or approval. Wardle said this creates "a very effective delivery mechanism" if a vulnerability exists in the Podcasts app, and the level of probing suggests adversaries are actively evaluating it as a potential target. The XSS-attempting podcast dates from around 2019. A recent review in the app asked "How does Apple allow this attempted XSS attack?" Asked for comment five times by 404 Media, Apple did not respond.

Macworld The Apple Pencil can be such a great tool to upgrade your iPad experience. This Black Friday, we found a jaw-dropping deal over at Walmart where you can order the USB-C version for $49, a full $30 below its regular price. The USB-C Apple Pencil is fantastic for taking notes or signing documents, but it’s also a stellar tool for drawings. It comes with tilt sensitivity so you can use it like a real pen, but if you want pressure sensitivity for accurate drawing and shading, you’ll need to upgrade to the Apple Pencil Pro (which is also on sale for $95, a savings of $35). The Pencil is compatible with every iPad Apple currently sells, and it’ll work with most models from recent years. It attaches magnetically to your iPad, so you don’t lose it, but you’ll need to plug in a USB-C cable when you need to charge it. Since this is the first time we’ve seen the USB-C Apple Pencil down to $49, we encourage you to take advantage of this fabulous deal before it expires.
