It's good to see that Apple was pretty prompt at fixing the FORCEDENTRY attack vector for spyware. However, what I can't seem to find out is whether or not the update removes existing spyware on hacked phones or does it only prevent future infections using that specific method?

How could it do that? It could only work for known spyware, if at all, and that wouldn’t guarantee anything AFAICT

Yes, I meant removal of existing *known* spyware such as Pegasus. I see a lot of reporting of stopping the exploit but can't find anything saying if it cleans known spyware should you have been unfortunate to have been hacked.
