A dangerous new way to hack the iPhone without even having to unlock it
The original iOS Mail app is under attack by hackers, according to a report by ZecOps Cyber Security.The vulnerability allows hackers to install malicious software on iPhone by sending out specially created email.
According to the Wall Street Journal, hackers only needed to send the message, and when an app downloads the message without user intervention the hacker can access the device.
ZecOps ensures that exploits are exploited by vulnerabilities in campaigns specifically targeting some users. The U.S. security company says that this bug has been on iOS since the release of iOS 6 that was released in 2012.
ZecOps adds that iPhones can also be part of the problem. The research firm says the most affected models are iPhone X, iPhone 6, and iPhone 7.
Apple is now aware of this vulnerability, and will actually correct the problem. ZecOps says the patch will arrive with a new version of iOS, possibly indicating the upcoming iOS 13 update.
