Researchers Bypass Apple FaceID Using Biometrics ‘Achilles Heel’

Researchers were able to bypass Apple s FaceID using a pair of glasses with tape on the lenses. The attack comes with obvious drawbacks the victim must be unconscious, for one, and can t wake up when the glasses are placed on their face. If a user is wearing glasses, the way that liveness detection scans the eyes changes, researchers said. If the victim is not wearing the glasses, it won’t extract 3D information from the eye area when it recognizes the glasses.
