No. iPad mini2 with iOS 12.5.4 is reportedly not vulnerable to Pegasus.

You are very welcome.


The first generation iPad Air, iPad mini2 and mini3 can currently only be updated to iOS 12.5.4. Apple ended major update support for these models of iPad in September 2019 - although they since continue to receive “point” security updates - the most recent being released just a few weeks ago. These devices cannot be updated to iPadOS 13 (or any later major versions of iPadOS) as the internal hardware does not meet the minimum technical requirements (CPU and RAM) for newer versions of iOS/iPadOS.


Given that your device is within its twilight period of update support, you might be well advised to soon consider replacement with a more recent device - in so doing benefiting from both enhanced functionality and full update support.
