Sideloaded iPhone malware is back on the table, and you can blame the European Commission

After Apple announced the various changes it's ready to make to the iPhone so it can comply with the European Union's Digital Markets Act , I said that I was no longer worried about sideloading malware on iPhone. The theoretical risk remained, of course. But it looked like Apple had instituted plenty of robust checks and requirements to enforce security and accountability.

The absence of notarization means third-party apps won't even get the soft app review treatment. Notarization would cover anti-malware and anti-phishing security checks. It also means some people will be able to pirate popular apps, or just clone them. That's not the only security protection against sideloading malware on iPhone, of course.
