Xcode is the tool used to compile iOS applications from source code into the actual iOS application.
I've not looked too much into the story but it seems there is a dodgy hacked version of this software which will implant malware into the compiled end iOS app. Presumably whatever tools Apple used to vet submitted apps were fooled by this, at least until now.




, but one should be able to detect a use of APIs that should flag the app as potentially malicious. Although the way of injecting the malware is genius, using otherwise trusted developers to upload it for them.
