Holy crap! From now on, even charging your phone will be vulnerable to hacking? (Following hardware wallets, other everyday hardware is becoming tools for hackers.) A guy bought an unlicensed power bank for $19 at the airport, and it turned out to contain a data theft device. After plugging in an iPhone, it disguised itself as a computer. Once the user clicked "trust this computer," it began reading the phone's data and even attempted to transfer files to a remote server via Wi-Fi. The guy's and his wife's iPhones were both compromised, including 1206 contacts, 3912 photos, device information, and even home Wi-Fi information. The power bank automatically searched for Wi-Fi passwords on the phones to connect to the devices and then continuously uploaded data. For those in the crypto industry, this is a new security alarm. Phones may contain KYC records from exchanges, ID photos, wallet screenshots, mnemonic phrase backups, verification codes, and a large amount of private information. Once this data falls into the hands of attackers, it could lead to account takeover, identity theft, targeted phishing attacks, and even asset theft. Here are a few things you can do right now: Don't use power banks or USB charging ports from unknown sources. If you're prompted to "Trust This PC" while charging, do not click on it unless you've clearly verified the device's identity. Use your own charging adapter and power bank whenever possible, and if necessary, use a data cable that's only for charging. Check your phone's trusted devices and revoke authorization from any unfamiliar computers. Actually, it's not just power banks; various hardware devices pose risks, so please be careful! https://(x.com)/0xGoldTooth/status/2118028166707007853/video/1
